dual monitors + use one for xbox/ps3

Hey PCmech,

recently built my PC here and it booted up first time! All thanx to the support from this website [I created a new account though]. Anyways, now I'd like to buy a 2nd monitor and was wondering if I could use it as a second monitor and also have my ps3 connected to it so I could use it as a TV and play games and what not on it. is it possible? If so, what kind of monitor do I need to get. Any monitor with HDMI ?

I was looking at http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16824001280

thoughts/suggestions all appreciated!

-mike

With the many different type of input connectors you could have one to the Xbox and one to the PC. You would have to manually change the input when switching between the 2 systems.
