Wait. Isn't 1080i better than 1080p? Or is it actually the other way around? :/

i dont understand what you are saying?  1080i and 1080p is the same resolution... but the p is the scanning mode, which is the only scanning mode that lcd computer monitors do.

1080i is 33.5 khz, 1080p is 67 khz

where do you see that 1080i is 540?  "1080i is a high-definition television (HDTV) video mode. The term usually assumes a widescreen aspect ratio of 16:9, implying a horizontal resolution of 1920 pixels and a frame resolution of 1920 × 1080 or about 2.07 million pixels."

also 1080i is 30Hz not 33500Hz
