Charlie please read this thread: http://forum.beyond3d.com/showthread.php?t=49295 You're really off here. the 5way VLIW design that ATI went with from R600 on does not require game specific optimizations in order to extract a good amount of performance. It just doesn't. I challenge you to...

Thanks for the suggestion but if it doesn't work all the time it's not really an ideal solution. For the time being I've just connected my my PS3 to my DVI port using a HDMI to DVI adapter and I'm running my computer through D-Sub... it's working well enough although I do notice the degraded...

OK So i just called BenQ and operantly they are not even aware of the over scan issue, or are just not informing their staff of it as they are unwilling to update the firmware on North American FP241VWs. Truly pathetic. So the question remains does anybody here know how to update the firmware on...

Hey 10e I'm having exactly the same problem as you with switching between the DVI and HDMI inputs. I'm using a 3870 of course. I haven't found any solution other than to run the XMB @ 1080i. For now I'm just going to disconnect my monitor when I want to play PS3 but obviously that is far from...

Bump! somebody must have tried this.

Bought this thing from ncix on sale for $720 cad with tax and shipping. Pretty good deal IMO. Anyways I'm having some issues geting decent image quality from my ps2. 480P looks good in games that support it but 1080i is really looking like shit in gt4. Text is garbled and the whole image just...

I'm not entire sure but I don't think mouse lag as anything to do with the display you are using... are you referring to ghosting?

The prices I quoted were in Canadian btw. But yeah I'm pretty much sold on the BenQ. Seems like a really good monitor that will work perfectly as a HDTV when I need it to.

Bump! Comon people need opinions!

I'm really really torn between these two options. I'm going to be using the monitor I get as a TV as well so component (and maybe svid) quality is important to me. Is the extra $125 worth it for the BenQ or should I just go with the cheaper dell?

Ah great this is exactly what I was looking for thanks.

720p LCD TVs are too low res for computer work and 1080p LCD TVs are far more expensive than the ~$650 I'd spend on a 2407 or similar monitor. Ideally I'd want something that can function well as both a TV and a monitor.

I'm in the market for a new 24" LCD and I'll be using it with various interlaced/low resolution sources (480i/480p from the ps2, 1080i for HDTV, 720p for ps3/xbox360) I know most of the major brands make pretty good monitors for PC use but which stand out for for interlaced/low resolution...
