    S1283 with HR-05

    Anyone know if the S1283 will fit an evga 680i wih the HR-05 IFX (non SLI version) on the NB? From pics it doesnt look like it would work mounted with the fan blowing towards the back of the case, but maybe towards the top?

    680i PCI Express Issue

    I wish I could just RMA it. Unfortunately its well out of warranty.

    680i PCI Express Issue

    Thanks for the suggestion. Thats not the problem though, as it was already set at 100mhz.

    680i PCI Express Issue

    I have a strange problem with a home theater PC that I am setting up. Not sure if it is a video card or mobo issue. The mobo is a evga 680i, video card a 7950 gx2. The gx2 will not work in the primary PCI Express slot. There is no video signal, though the PC does post with 1 long beep and 2...

    Jacoby, Thats most likely the anti-reflective (matte) coating your seeing. Just something you have to get used to or go glossy.

    Thats true. Not to mention I didn't notice any flicker on the previous monitors I had so I probably just got stuck with a defective panel. I plan on getting a bigger S-IPS in a couple months anyway. 20" just seems too small after seeing all the 30"+ panels around here :D

    Anti-glare coating vs. Glossy finish

    My preference after seeing the 20WMGX2 is glossy. Solid colors are so much clearer and vibrant. The anti glare coating makes solid colors grainy or gives them a shimmer effect. Glare wouldn't be a problem for me with my room lighting, and even if it was I could always close the blinds or turn...

    I see light to moderate flicker in almost every video I watch, and heavy flickering in some areas of BF2. I don't even need to use a "test pattern" to see the flicker. Practically any solid mid-tone color will do it on mine. I actually think I have gotten used to it now :eek: It doesn't bother...

    It doesn't take nearly a month. More like 3 or 4 business days and they cross ship so you receive the replacement first, then send the other back.

    The anti-reflective coating is great for office use or in a room with direct sunglight. Seems most people prefer it over glossy screens even if it does make the the picture a little grainy. I was the same way at first, thinking there was no way I would like glossy after using a CRT for so long...

    JungleMan, color banding is no longer an issue with the latest revisions. That was fixed months ago and the purple hue at angles is a property of the S-IPS panels.

    I am. Can't stand the color shifting on PVA's and I won't even look at TN as an option. I'm also not completely satisfied with IPS, but they are good enough for me to no longer consider CRT's. My previous monitor was a Cornerstone p1750 so any current LCD will be a downgrade as far as color...

    S-IPS 22" or 24" LCDs in the near future?

    I think you mean TN.

    around 500$ to spend

    TN panels generally have smaller viewing angles and below average accuracy when compared to other panel types. Doesn't mean there bad monitors though. Read this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TFT_LCD Edit: I don't know of any non TN 22" panels planned in the future, but it seems likely there...
