    gtx 480 3DMark/ Furmark Score checks?

    To answer a few questions, the GTX 480 cards with stock cooling and no overclocking should idle between 69 and 75 degrees Celsius. They are very hot cards. However, they can safely handle temperatures up to 94 degrees Celsius. With over clocking expect your cards to idle around 72 to 78...

    Yet another 120Hz LCD: Alienware OptX AW2310 23" 16:9

    That would be great DevonK, I have no testing equipment for input lag. I have completed the color accuracy testing for the aw2310, however I left the results at home... I will post them tonight along with the same tests run on the Samsung 2233RZ just to give you a comparison. I will...

    Yet another 120Hz LCD: Alienware OptX AW2310 23" 16:9

    @Druneau haha, sorry. I'm an "Official Reseller" for Dell, maybe they like me more lol. That's funny though, guess they have a significant demand. You just became my hero if you can afford that setup... and I'm also envious. Each monitor will run you about $550, times 3 would be...

    Yet another 120Hz LCD: Alienware OptX AW2310 23" 16:9

    As another note, these are the "complete" specs for the monitor, the website leaves details out, like display type, and true contrast ratio, etc. so..... here.... Screen type Active matrix: TFT LCD Panel type: TN Screen dimensions: 23-inch (584.2 mm) viewable image size...

    Yet another 120Hz LCD: Alienware OptX AW2310 23" 16:9

    The monitor just arrived. I'm currently at the office so I cannot run my full review and testing yet. However, I did set it up just to get an idea. First off... I have been "wowed", the experience was not the same when first turning on the samsung 2233RZ... Without tampering with it at...

    Yet another 120Hz LCD: Alienware OptX AW2310 23" 16:9

    Yes it is indeed the 2693hm, however, I tend to disagree not with your description of oversaturation and increased white point, but instead on the display itself. My determination of the quality comes after calibration. During calibration I reduce luminosity (white point as you call it) to the...

    Yet another 120Hz LCD: Alienware OptX AW2310 23" 16:9

    I may not be considered "reputable" for reviewing. However, I do pay close attention to detail, as well as own a callibration sensor (spyder 2 pro), which will read true lumination, contrast, and color output of the monitor. As well as rate how far off from "true" RGB it is. So, I'll at least...

    Yet another 120Hz LCD: Alienware OptX AW2310 23" 16:9

    The only thing that peaks my interest regarding the alienware over the acer is the brightness. I currently have the Samsung 2233rz, 300cmd2 brightness, and a Samsung... uh... 25.5 inch (forget the model number), at 400cmd2 brightness. The colors, and appearance are much more rich with the...
