Hot take: Just buy a TV instead. Computer monitors can be a pain to set up with consoles.

For a more advanced method, you can use a capture card. Connect the Xbox 360 to the capture card via HDMI, then connect the capture card to your computer via USB. Install any necessary software, and you're good to go.
