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.
The settings in this thread didn't really work out all too well for me. Maybe I'm just a complete colour noob, but it looked way off in my honest opinion.
(The ones listed earlier).
Nearly a week with my dual 245BW's now and I still love them.
The only gripe I have so far is it appears...
No idea what you're trying to show in those pictures but it doesn't look like a big deal so my advice is that if you have no dead pixels just keep it.
BTW, I just bought 2 of these.
Is there a way yet to get them to work with XBOX360 over VGA at 1080p or no?
Although there's very few reviews avaiable for the DoubleSight so far I would definitely give that a shot over the Westinghouse, personally.
I went through 2 exchanges on both of the L2410NM monitors that I bought and they all had that same 'screendoor/grain' effect in the upper right...
So what's the general response in terms of how I should calibrate these new monitors?
I ended up returning my Westinghouse 24'' monitors on account of continued defective units and managed to snag 2 Samsung 245BW's at $375 each here in Canada at a pretty sweet deal I think.
Not many...
I have a Galaxy 8800GT.
In the Nvidia control panel it shows one is hooked up through DVI (looks amazing).
And one is hooked up through HDMI (looks like crap).
They are both hooked up through two DVI-to-HDMI cables.
WTF? :(
This is weird as shit.
In control panel it says L2410NM (1 of 2) is connected using DVI (which it is... DVI-to-HDMI cable).
It also says L2410NM (2 of 2) is connected using HDMI, not DVI.
That's why I have such shitty quality on 2 of 2.
Any clue how the hell I'd fix this?
I think the monitor Gods have something against me.
Ok, so I reboot my system after getting some new video drivers and suddely after seeing something in a user posted picture it finally holds true for me.
Monitor #1 is displaying "DVI" in the menu and looks stunning after I quickly calibrated...
Even if I could manage to calibrate this (which I'm struggling with) the text still appears to be a bit shoddy on DVI-to-HDMI meanwhile it looked absolutely stunning when hooked up via VGA.
I have ClearType enabled.
What's going on here?
:(
I've been playing some FPS on mine quite a bit and I don't see any noticeable ghosting at all.
Numbers mean nothing if you can't notice it in my opinion.
So far so good with the Westinghouse as far as games is concerned.
I'd say go with it. Beautiful step-up from a TN. I used a 22'' TN before this myself and side-by-side the difference in terms of color reproduction is like night and day. It's beautiful, especially after calibration...
Yeah, I've heard the no signal screen is common on other monitors as well. Not strictly a Westinghouse problem.
However, I'm thinking it might be able to be address with a simple firmware update. Perhaps a few emails to Westinghouse by a sizable amount of people and they'll be on well on...
Thanks captain obvious.
However, the OP is looking for the best 24'' monitor he can find for <$500.
If he's expecting an IPS he needs to wake up and realize that's not going to happen. The Westinghouse is like $350 after rebates or $360 at a B&M store so you can return easily w/o shipping...
