    What to consider when using display output adapters?

    Also remember that some OSD features are restricted to certain ports which could make calibration difficult. I found that certain color management options whilst available via AVI weren't via DVI and or HDMI. And if you're not already aware nvidia cards have issues with black/ Reference levels...

    what does pixel accuracy mean PRAD

    Thought as much any chance you would know if the iiyama xb2783sub supports this via HDMI it wasn't made clear in the prad review.

    what does pixel accuracy mean PRAD

    I think I know but I hoping for confirmation. In the prad review of the Benq EW2740l (used google translation) http://www.prad.de/new/monitore/test/2014/test-benq-ew2740l-teil8.html they say in the table that at resolutions of 720p and 1080p also has pixel accuracy what does this mean? Thanks...

    Need real help finalising a 27" screen

    Hi there can anyone confirm if the benqew2740l or the Iiayama XB2783HSU has an auto adjust option for accurate resolutions from source perfect for console gaming as some games are 720p whilst others are 1080p on my Samsung LCD TV this feature was called just scan. I always thought this was 1:1...

    Digital foundry Rayman extract: "All of these nuances are replicated expertly across all platforms. So from a visual perspective the only difference of note is the gamma set-up between platforms and the Wii U's limited-range RGB output. The 360 version features an image richer in contrast...

    Update: I am back with the benq just discovered that the WiiU doesn't have a HDMI RGB Range/Black Level Settings. And since I have a WiiU this setting is essential unless the iiyama automatically adjusts for black levels. This back and forth is driving me crazy (it's all part of the fun right) ;-)

    Talk about spanner in the works not complaining though :-). So if I got the iiyama would it mean that I would need a one size fits all setup or can it store multiple settings for an input (HDMI in this case).

    Need real help finalising a 27" screen

    Benq it is then that black level was an essential customisation tool on my Samsung. The illayama is the better monitor but not for last gen console gaming, to get that ideal look requires a lot of customising. My guess I can't go to wrong with either but fortunately the benq wins out. I really...

    Need real help finalising a 27" screen

    You know how I said last question I lied :-). Here is my issue I have a ps3 and 360 both display colours differently as a result 2 hdmi's are perfect for 2 different settings. Now if you told me you could save custom settings on the iiyama so that the iiyama under the one HDMI could have 2 (or...

    Need real help finalising a 27" screen

    Thanks NCX. Prad said that the Benq EW2740L doesn't distort 720p sources I believe the same is true of the samsung just need to wait for more reviews (specifically prad) to decide which one. I really can't thank you enough I've been researching to death but when you are searching on such a scale...
