HDMI Or Component Cables For XBOX 360?

Does it make a huge difference in terms of picture? I currently use the cables that comes with my 360 and it has 2 sets I use the red, green and blue color because it shows better picture when playing games. I am just curious to know if HDMI wires makes a difference? Is it alot better?

No it is not! You will barely notice a difference. I just wasted my money on these cables last weekend thinking that the picture and sound would be far superior, but that's definitely not the case. It looks about the same as it did when I was using 1080i.

if you have the ability to use HDMI on your xbox then I don't see why you wouldn't, you get get cables from monoprice/ebay for about $2. Just don't buy into the whole monster cables, super high speed hdmi cables junk and you'll be fine.

What screen resolution do you guys have on your 360? Mine is set at 720. don't most games run on 720 and not 1080?

I think the only main advantage is you don't have cord clutter with the HDMI cable.

compared to what? My Xbox came with the red, yellow, and white AV cables that I've been accustomed to using for just about every system I've ever owned.
