I want to connect xbox 360 with LCD monitor with help of External TV tuner card. I read on some threads that if you connect monitor with Xbox through internal TV tuner card then this leads in to some delay generated due to TV tuner card as signals passes to monitor through PC hence is it good to use external TV tuner card to connect Xbox 360 to LCD monitor as in this case there should be no delay as TV tuner is directly connected to monitor

You need a VGA cable like this one Click Here or if your LCD has a HDMI port then simply get a HDMI cable. You can't use a TV tuner card as it has time lag problem and doesnt give quality results.

Or, you can get a Xbox 360 DVI-D cable using which you can directly connect your 360 to monitor.

It will look like this.

And you be needing a RCA female to Headphone jack. Which will look somewhat like this.

This is actually a lot better than using TV tuner card. And cheaper too.
