    Will I ever switch to LCD?

    OCD? Cheap LCDs? To me CRT is fuzzy, darker darks (not even noticeable any more) but less pop even with calibrated accurate colors. Geometry issues, higher resolutions hurt my eyes even at high refresh rates.

    Achieva Shimian QH270| $400 IPS 2560x1440 Korean Monitor

    I've been using smaa injector a lot since I got the 2560x1440 screen. It helps get back a bit of the performance that was lost. Not that its 100% necessary in every game with a 680GTX though.

    For people complaining about less aggressive AG coating..

    I agree they should sell both at an option. There should be some way of having a screen without AG and placing it on the monitor as they get ordered. Especially when you get to high price screens.

    Will I ever switch to LCD?

    People complain about non existant issues. 90% of the LCDs I've seen in the last 5 years look WAY better than CRT.

    Looking for the sweet spot monitor (120hz 1920x1200 24"+ 2ms)

    FYI I went from 25.5" 16:10 to 27in (IPS) 16:9. Screen is WAY better but it did seam a bit small when I first put it on the desk. The vertical size is actually a tiny bit less.

    Will I ever switch to LCD?

    People that say LCD looks bad are reading too much and not going out and actually looking at the displays.

    For people complaining about less aggressive AG coating..

    I have a 27in achieva shimian and it looks great and is advertised as glossy. One of the best I've seen right up there with the CinemaDisplay (almost identical). I've seen a specific HP 24in monitor at a client site that nobody wants to use because the wall of windows behind everyone makes the...

    Achieva Shimian QH270| $400 IPS 2560x1440 Korean Monitor

    I can only compare it to my Samsung T260. Image quality is much much better on the Shimian. But we are talking IPS vs TN. It actually does look pretty comparible to the 27" Cinema Display I looked at the other day.

    Achieva Shimian QH270| $400 IPS 2560x1440 Korean Monitor

    Not sure if anyone answered this as I could not find this information before I ordered myself. I got the Shimian and it says hdcp compliant in nvidia control panel and I'm able to watch live cable.

    Using onboard NIC's (Broadcom/realtek) vs PCI-E (Intel)

    I just replaced replaced a p67/Realtek with a z77/intel board. On the realtek I have had random connection issues on the media center extender. Both devices hard wired 1Gbit and not dropping packets. The Realtek never had issues with normal internet usage/browsing/gaming though.

    590 to 680... worth it?

    IDK I had a 295 and its the worst card I have ever had. Would have rather had two 285's. Although some issues were SLI related so I prefer a single GPU.

    GTX 680 In Stock Thread

    I might not even have it for more than a few months. I'm putting it in a system that will likely require underclocking it and larger cards kill airflow. Was thinking of a 7850 but want to stick with Nvidia. This may just hold me off until an 8" or so aftermarket card (660 ... MSI Frozr, etc)...
