    9600XT and 2005FPW

    the 9600XT is enough for displaying images on your monitor. The difference comes when you want to play games @ native resolution. I run a stock 9800 Pro and I can definitely say that its nowhere near as powerful to run the monitor at its native resolution. So around xmas time, Im hopin for a...

    2405 v 2005 for gaming...

    Im sure you have been in this scenario: gaming on a 15" CRT to a 17" CRT to a 19" CRT. The end result, you love gaming on the 19". The same applies between the 2005FPW and the 2405FPW. 24" > 20.1" This is assuming that all the monitor has the same Image Quality, only variable is the...

    Dell 2405FPW - opinion after 4 days

    yup, lookin at this forum with the grey on this monitor definitely looks 'chromy' no doubt about that. My eyes are starting to hate that look however I do love this monitor for its shear size. I had 2 choices, since obtaining the 4th one was the last one they would want to send me, the 3rd one...

    Dead Pixel Dread

    heh, I went through 4 dell monitors and i had to settle for the 3rd one, since the 1st one had a red stuck pixel which was utterly unbearable, the 2nd one had a green stuck pixel which I could barely notice but had the shittest backlight, then the 3rd the sweetest backlight uniformity I've ever...

    hey KrulL, I am in the same boat as you! Im on my 3rd Dell Monitor, and the 1st thing I did was load Dead Pixel Buddy to check for dead pixels, and like you, no dead pixels, then later on, did a check again, found a GREEN ONE!!!!!!! Which is the same as my 2nd refurb replacement they sent me...

    sorry havent been on here for a while. As for the option, I am using an ATi Radeon 9600XT, go into display properties, and into the "Monitor" tab and under "Screen Refresh Rate" select 100Hz. For those who are concerned about screwing up the monitor at this setting, I dont give a dam. Why...

    Team 2405 appreciation thread! Pics, a poll, and comments about our baby!

    I've gone through 2 monitors, 1st one had dead pixel, 2nd one has green defective pixel and worse backlight leakage compared to the 1st. i rang Dell for another one, decided not to hassle them, and its been a week and no monitor. Guess I needa call them again and discuss about it. I'd go through...

    Okay. its been six months since the 2405's debut. how many are still happy?

    Yup, Im still happy, even though the one I am using has servere backlight leakage on the bottom right and a green stuck pixel, which is hard to spot but still noticable. Gave Dell a call last week and its been a week and I've heard / saw no signs of delivery of a 3rd replacement. Must give them...

    I Fixed My 2405 Cursor Lag!

    I fixed my cursor lag by upping the refresh rate from 60Hz to 100Hz. It feels faster and responsive

    Team 2405 appreciation thread! Pics, a poll, and comments about our baby!

    hehehe, its too much for my eyes to handle! The Left is the replacement one, the right is the 1st one. Pity both are defective to me, each has stuffed up pixels, the replacement has worse backlight leakage on the bottom right. Will go for another spin to get a perfect one.
