Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
That's exactly why I pulled the trigger early. There's basically nothing else in this category other than the NEC 2490wuxi (original), which I would love, but it's hardly available anywhere and is over $1000.
I have an eye-one display 2 colorimeter that I'm going to use on this ZR24w -...
Ha! just got it here at work, and couldn't resist setting it up real quick for an initial look-over (going to be using it at home ultimately).
My first reactions are VERY positive. I can't check backlight bleed well because i can't turn the lights off here (cube-ville), but I booted up...
I ordered one from cost central last week and tried to go into "track order" on their website, and it couldn't find it.
However, i went into "my account" --> "recent orders" and was able to navigate to tracking info from there - it's apparently arriving tomorrow :)
Thanks, but again, all they say is that there IS a fourth, yellow pixel, rather than any details about how they actually calculate or receive 4-channel inputs, or exactly how yellow is superior to red+green
also, when someone actually receives this monitor, we should start a new thread for reviews on this monitor, because we have 16 pages of near-nothing at this point in this thread.
800:1, if accurate, is not that low - you're just used to inflated marketing numbers.
granted, 1000:1 is better, but 800 isn't bad. The NEC 2490wuxi (known as one of the best IPS monitors) realistically has 700-750:1 contrast ratio.
I just ordered one from Cost Central - $409 was just too good to pass up, especially if it's going to be $500+ in the future, and there's no other sRGB, IPS, 1920x1200 monitor in existence other than the 2490wuxi, which is over twice as expensive.
When I get it I'll take some pictures/do a...
I didn't see anything really about the quad-pixel technology in that thread, people were more interested in the panel type.
Anyone know how the TV generates a "yellow" level? (0-255 i'm assuming) Does it interpolate from the RGB, or is there a 4th input channel, or...?
Hey, so I saw an ad on TV about Sharp adding a fourth (Yellow) sub-pixel to their TVs, and I'm just really skeptical about it and curious if anyone knows how it's supposed to work.
I realize that in theory a 4th Primary can increase the gamut because you now have a square-shaped area to work...
I agree, hurry up HP - I'm definitely very interested in the 24". No idea why it took so long to come out with an LCD with:
1920x1200
IPS
standard gamut.
that isn't $1100
Out of curiosity, what retailer was this? I'd love to see the 2490 in person, as I have been considering it for awhile but am hesitant to spend so much money before seeing it, and it doesn't seem to be in ANY brick and mortar stores.
So are these standard or wide gamut, or both? I wasn't able to tell from the .pdf
However, i'm really excited to see these come out, especially the PA241W - and what the pricing of it and the 2490 are going to be. I've been having a hard time picking out an ideal high-end monitor, maybe...
