People, quit hating on one gaming system over the other. PS4, Xbox One and PC all have great games. There are advantages to all; get over it.

If you hook it up to a PC monitor is there an audio output you can link to and external speaker or headphones ? Is the connection USB audio only ?

If I get my own xbox one and hook it up but someone else is paying for my existing gold account on another system will I still be able to use my gold membership or have to pay for a new one

Hey, TechRadar, I am fully aware of my incompetence without the manual to the xbox, but this still offered no help. What wires are you plugging where? I understand what ports are supposed to be connected, but just a simple name call would go a long way for me to know what to connect the ports with. The whole thing is a little overwhelming so sorry if I seem flustered.
