    LG 43UD79 Information?

    Just an fyi... I just happened to open the LG software today and it indicated there was a firmware update. It upgraded my firmware from 3.20 (what my monitor came with) to 3.26. I didn't notice any obvious differences but I didn't look really hard. If I had to say anything I would say it's...

    LG 43UD79 Information?

    The HDMI cable and the Displayport cable that ship with the 43UD79-B (at least the U.S. version) are approximately 6 feet (1.83m) long. I measured the HDMI cable, now I have to try to reconnect it (anyone else find it's a pain to connect these without being directly behind the monitor?). I was...

    LG 43UD79 Information?

    Did you install the LG software and connect your monitor via the usb-c port to your computer to check the firmware it is on? I think 3.20 is the latest. Anyway, at least up until now, I haven't had a problem with the screen blanking out, I'm hoping it was fixed in a firmware update.

    LG 43UD79 Information?

    Thanks for mentioning that Costco has this on sale for $500. I just received mine from Costco on February 26th. Prior to this new sale they had it on sale for $549.99. Costco.com has a 30 day price match policy so I can get a credit for the difference in price. I would have likely not...

    LG 43UD79 Information?

    My main display/pc uses the displayport. I have a couple other computers hooked up through the HDMI ports. HDMI 1 and 3 is what I've tried so far. Using my photoshop ruler, I figured out the large PIP screen measures 1920x1080 pixels. The medium screen is 1366x768 pixels and the small...

    LG 43UD79 Information?

    I've had this monitor for about a week now. It's taken some getting used to but I don't think I could go back to my 27" WQHD at this point. Anyway, anyone have any tips on using the PiP feature? I can get it to work, but no matter what I do I can't get clean resolution out of the smaller...

    Default Display Options: Last Day (1 Day) Killing Discussion? (Redux)

    In my occasional free time I enjoy browsing this forum. I don't post very frequently but Idefinitely enjoy reading about a lot of the topics on this forum. The one thing that has always bothered me is the default display options on a lot of the forums is only one day, which I thought could be...

    Phenom II 1100T to FX series?

    I upgraded from an 1100T to an 8350 and noticed a big difference with encoding in Handbrake (at least the difference of having 2 extra cores). I don't overclock so this was strictly comparing standard specs. Handbrake is the most cpu intensive task I run regularly, I don't play a lot of...

    Dell U2412M

    I don't think it's a coincidence that the third party price has gone up quite a bit recently and Dell's website has been showing that it won't ship until the 2nd week of March. Today it's saying one to two weeks so it's most likely that the monitor stock was simply in short supply recently...

    Does anyone have the NEC EA244WMi yet?

    That review seems to be a copy of the review from MacWorld.co.uk that was mentioned in the other NEC EA244WMI thread we have going on here. I'm likely to bite the bullet on this monitor this weekend based on that review, but I wish I had some more information to go on...someone has to be the...

    NEC EA244WMi 24" IPS LED Monitor

    This monitor is slowly starting to appear online for sale. I think I found what might be the first real review of the monitor, although it's barely more then what's in the marketing brief: http://www.macworld.co.uk/digitallifestyle/reviews/?reviewid=3425752 Also, in the Any semi-gloss 24" IPS...

    Dell U2412M

    Anyone ordered this monitor from Dell lately? I've been checking their website and it looks like they're out of stock and estimated arrival is in March. I know if I call Dell I can probably get a good deal on this monitor. Does it make sense to order directly from them as opposed to other...

    NEC EA244WMi 24" IPS LED Monitor

    MaximumPC reported on a new monitor from NEC that I didn't see any mention of in the forum. Here's a snippet from the NEC website: Here is the Maximum PC mention. As the MSRP is expected to be about US $349 according to MaximumPC, it would seem to be in direct competition with Dell's...

    Vishera Piledriver Benched

    Interest in this review has kicked up a bit since another thread was recently created about it and the review was mentioned in another thread getting some responses. I just thought I'd bump this thread back up since the review was pretty well dissected here already. My own take is that I hope...

    link to piledriver 8350 review

    This is a duplicate thread. This exact review was already discussed in detail previously here. Anyway, the non-trolling consensus seemed to be that this review may not be completely legit as the Trinity APU showed more promise with basic piledriver cores while supposedly the desktop piledriver...
