If you can play a game like counter strike on the highest settings,
would the graphics be better if you were playing it on a HD monitor?
Does the game have to be able to support HD for it to benefit? or any game played on a HD monitor would have better graphics?
Answer
It would only make your games look better. The only way to improve graphics is to either upgrade your hardware(including the graphics card, and upgrade in whatever way necessary). If the both the HD monitor and the graphics card have HDMI ports, then you can just get the cable for it.

Gaming with a PC monitor?
atvz1094
So basically I can decide whether to play my XBOX360 on my regular TV or my PC monitor? My TV is fairly old so it doesn't have any HDMI support or 1080p or anything like that so the graphics are fairly mediocre compared to a TV with HD support, but will my PC monitor be able to show my games in HD when I purchase the VGA cable to play with my xbox on it? Its a Dell monitor that came with my Dell Dimension e510 i bought roughly 3-4 years ago. is gaming with a PC monitor better or worse? pros and cons?
Answer
You'll definitely want to use your PC monitor. "HD" is really just a marketing term that defines any content rendering at resolution of 720p (1280x720) or greater as "high-definition" content.
The fact is that PC monitors have been running in "HD" for years. A common native resolution supported by many mainstream 19-20 inch LCD's is 1280x1024, which is actually greater than 720p in spite of having a 5:4 aspect ratio.
16:9 or 16:10 "widescreen" PC monitors use even higher resolutions like 1680x1050 or 1920x1200. 30" PC monitors run at the insane resolution of 2560x1600 (WQXGA). Most 24 inch LCD monitors run at 1920x1200, which is slightly better than a 1080p (1920x1080) HDTV. 30 inch LCD monitors that run at 2560x1600 (1600p) blow any 1080p HDTV out of the water with the right source material.
Anyway, use the 360's VGA cable and your PC monitor. You should be able to set the resolution to 1280x1024 or better, depending on the native resolution of your monitor. This will be MUCH better than your old SDTV.
