    Dual Monitors with different resolutions and refresh rates in SLI setup?

    Thanks for the help guys ;) Okay so based on my own research, it appears that running the dual monitors will not be an issue at two different resolutions and refresh . I would assume that I will need to run one off of the primary card and the other off of the secondary card, independent of...

    Dual Monitors with different resolutions and refresh rates in SLI setup?

    I am getting a new monitor (ASUS VG248QE) to replace my existing (Samsung 226BW). My setup has 2 matching EVGA 660ti SC's in SLI. I plan on running the new monitor via the DVI-D port to take advantage of the 120+Hz refresh rates. I want to keep my older monitor which runs at 60Hz...

    Gaming monitors around $300?

    Thanks all. One of my biggest items is input lag. I would prefer it be <2ms since thats what I have been dealing with on my old 226BW. I measured my desk for a 27" monitor and damn they are huge! I think I should be able to tolerate a 24" at 16:9 and just get used to it. I would prefer the...

    Gaming monitors around $300?

    I am looking to replace my trust old Samsung 226BW to take advantage of my setup. I am looking to upgrade to a mid-range monitor that will work well with gaming. I would love to go IPS, but there does not seem to be many options with the 1 to 2 ms response times, so a good quality TN will be...

    Going SLI with older monitor temporarily?

    I got my system 6 months ago (i7-3770K, ASUS P8Z77-V Pro, Nvidia 660Ti SC, 2 GB, 16GB Corsair Venegeance 1866, 850 watt Corsair 80+ power supply, Windows 7 Pro). I plan on adding a second Nvidia 660Ti SC, 2GB in SLI, rather than get a newer card. I just want to get one now before I will...

    Samsung 226BW vs HP W2207, What is better?

    I have a Samsung 226BW "A" panel that was manufactured Nov. 2007. Aside from a little backlight bleeding, which is barely noticeable, this monitor was great right out of the box. No color adjustments required at all...

    Samsung 226BW 22": 3000:1 Contrast, 2ms response time

    I was finally able to play with my monitor this weekend. It was manufactured in Nov. 2007, appears to be an AU Optronics panel. The colors look excellent so far! I did no adjusting whatsoever aside from contrast / brightness. M-ME22H0CLA-1004 MSTAR :cool:

    9800 Pro with Samsung 226BW?

    Ok Thanks. I was reading through some other forums and it sounded like others were saying differently as if I had to somehow "force" the resolution using omega drivers or other programs. Thanks for your help.

    9800 Pro with Samsung 226BW?

    I did a search and could not find pinpoint information. I recently purchased a Samsung 226BW monitor. I get to play around with it this weekend. My situation is that I will be running it off of an ATI 9800 pro for a couple months, until I get my new PC. To my knowledge the 9800 pro does...

    Samsung 226BW 22": 3000:1 Contrast, 2ms response time

    I am not looking forward to adjusting the settings. With a new monitor, this should not be an issue. I knew about the so called &#8220;panel lottery" beforehand, but I played and I guess I lost :mad: Hopefully with this being a newer model, it will not be an issue. Right now, I'm going to...
