"You shouldn't have problems today but for the first couple of months the 680i SLI was out there were quite a few problems with audio crackling with both the onboard sound and the Creative X-Fi" Yeah I heard about those problems. Guess I was lucky though. I've had mine since day one with either...

Hmm I was unaware there was so much 680 hate out there. I love mine. It has worked rock solid for over a year running GTXs in sli and a quad core. It is a great overclocker and still bests or is on par with the brand new boards. I will definitely be sticking with Nvidia chipsets and EVGA in...

That was my original plan, to go back and change my comments, until I found that the person at corporate was basically just paying me lip service when they called me. Gateway should be receiving my returned screen today. I will now wait to go back and update my comments once I actually have my...

I got my HP 30" the same day they took my XHD away. I can say right off the bat that the XHD is much more pleasurable to use because that damn scaler chip just makes the input options so easy, plus the remote and Infra red pass through really were nice. But I have to say that subjectively, the...

Thanks Encyee, I hope you are right. Good luck with yours too. Yup, they never came to pick-up the set. The person at corporate completely failed. The set is gone though. I had to set it up again through normal channels and leave work early, again, but the pos is gone.

I originally scheduled the return through the regular Gateway sales channel. But Gateway corporate contacted me to clear up the restock fee issue and took over the shipping. The lady at corporate had me give her my fedex tracking number so she could cancel it. She said she was going to arrange...

Well nevermind. I took it back out of its box and hung it back on its wall mount and the defect is gone! Somehow after taking it down, boxing it up, and unpacking it again I no longer can make the screw imprint appear again. Also the backlight is now almost completely uniform with very very...

Hello again. I hope everyone is well. Apollo you mentioned I should return the screen. I am. It is being picked up Tuesday. As to me having issues no one else seems to have, either I have the worst screen of the whole lot or I may be overly critical. Others probably aren't so critical. But it is...

Even if mine didn't have a defect I would still return it because the extreme input lag. Since I can't have it anywhere near my subwoofer, I brought it to my office and plugged it into my multi-monitor setup. I had it sitting next to my 24" gateway, my 20" samsung, and my dell and the XHD3000...

The XHD3000 does have awesome black levels. I will give it that. Probably the best I have seen in a non-pro monitor.

Yup, overall this screen is mediocre at best. It is definitely not the savior of 30" lcds that some reviewers are touting it as. It has a few good points, the hdmi and component upscaling, and for me at the native res from my pc my 8800ultras were able to do fine. But there are just so many...

I have to say that the upscaling is beautiful. My 360 and PC look great on it. But the defect and Gateway's customer service are unacceptable. The circle defect is so bad sometimes that I'm worried about it cracking the back of the screen. I only saw it at first when my subwoofer was on but now...

"it's not an issue nearly as bad as inverse ghosting." I have the 24" Gateway with the inverse ghosting and I can tell you that to me it is much worse. I would take the inverse ghosting over this problem any day. Hi all I am new here. I started reading this forum to keep up with the...
