    How does a monitor's max refresh correlate to MAX FPS?

    Nice, ya I forced VSYNC on globally and now CSS isn't ripping apart at the middle of my screen anymore. I dont really notice a difference between the 60 fps I am getting now and the 125 I was getting. I am going to upgrade everything this next February so hopefully I will be gaming at 1080p and...

    How does a monitor's max refresh correlate to MAX FPS?

    Great info man, thanks! Is tearing where you get a line in the middle of your screen that makes it look like the graphics on the top half and bottom half of your screen are refreshing at different rates? I have that right now and it is really annoying... I have 2 7900 GT's Sli'ed fyi. How do I...

    How does a monitor's max refresh correlate to MAX FPS?

    Can anyone explain to me how a monitors refresh rate effects the actual FPS displayed on your screen? For example, if I am getting 80 fps in a game and my monitors refresh rate is 60hz, will I be able to notice a difference on my display if my fps goes up to say 140 fps?

    Westinghouse - 42" 1080p LCD HDTV or SHARP AQUOS Black 32"

    After getting antsy I went down to BB and got the 42 for the heck of it, knowing I could return it no questions asked if I didn't like it. I got it home, hooked it up and tweaked. I was not impressed. TV picture was decent with HD channels but SD LOOKED DISMAL! I couldn't watch anything SD, it...

    Critique my Q6600 build

    May I suggest waiting for 2-3 weeks to see where the GPU market is at? If nothing changes based on the 8800GT release then pull the trigger.

    Westinghouse - 42" 1080p LCD HDTV or SHARP AQUOS Black 32"

    It is really a game of what display better fits your expectations. Both displays are good and they each have different advantages. The Sharp has better blacks and more vibrant colors, but it is 10 inches smaller than the Westy. There have been issues with the back lights on the Westys being...

    Westinghouse - 42" 1080p LCD HDTV or SHARP AQUOS Black 32"

    32" and 42" is a big difference, once you get past 30' it's really personal preference as far as gaming goes. I would get the 42 because I like to be immersed in the game I am playing. However if you plan to use it as a computer monitor as well there is several other things to look at, but if...

    Need Help Deciding! (~$1500 Budget)

    I am in Iraq at the moment and will be heading home really soon. According to Costco's and BB's website they don't have the specific models I am looking for. That will definately be the way I go if I can find what I want!

    Need Help Deciding! (~$1500 Budget)

    I read most of the thread you are refering to and towards the end you hear alot of people complaining about the firmware on thier 37 SE's. Apparently thee "bad" version makes it really difficult to get the graphics drivers to properly recognize your display. Don't know, I am looking at the 37"...

    Sharp Aquos 37" LC37D62U

    Good points, I am easy to please in the monitor department. I just don't want to buy a TV that is going to give me headaches, I am sure everyone else feels the same. If the reason folks at [H] dont talk about the 37" is that it is too expensive or it is too big for thier personal preference and...
