    I recently upgraded from a 1GB 4870 to a 7850 for the 2GB of VRAM playing Skyrim with 4096x4096 textures and I'm very happy with that.

    Card to replace HD 4870?

    Replaced my 4870 with an HIS IceQ X Turbo (factory overclocked to 1000MHz core frequency). The new card is actually a little shorter than the 9.6" 4870 was, so it fit my Antec SLK 3700-BQE midtower. It's quite silent and Skyrim temps run around 45C (ambient 28C).

    Sorry to hear that. :( Mine was officially open-box too as it was the one on display in the store. Only problem was a couple of easily wiped-off fingerprints on the screen..

    ASUS PA246Q: 24-inch, 1920x1200, IPS

    I've installed the driver. Doesn't seem to make any difference. Came across this thread yesterday. There's some good info in there from a photography site perspective. Deals with the modes in particular. http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/readflat.asp?forum=1004&thread=37762466&page=1

    Best 24" LCD for $500. No TN panels.

    Mine was tested for bright/dead pixels at the store in front of me before I bought it.

    Out of interest, who calibrates their screen?

    The factory calibration on my ASUS is good enough for me at the moment.

    Best 24" LCD for $500. No TN panels.

    I haven't seen it personally but it is said to have a rather thick antiglare coating according to several threads in this forum.

    You might want to give the ASUS PA246Q a look if P-IPS is to your liking. It has a 3 year no-bright-pixel warranty and is factory calibrated.. :)

    Details of anti-glare sparkle on IPS screens?

    PA246Q here. I see mine only occasionally and as like a tiny bit of dust on the white parts of screen.

    Have you guys installed the Windows 7 driver that comes on the CD with the user manual? I'm wary of installing it as the monitor currently works great without it and I tend to be in the 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it' clan.:confused:
