    Dell U2412M

    I am thinking about getting a third one of these monitors, and I noticed a number of you guys have three setup. To anyone with more than two of them, are you using two video cards? Is there a recommendation for a single card that can handle three of these monitors well?

    Dell U2412M

    Ordered 2 last Friday night, and received them yesterday even with a projected delivery of Monday. I used my NEC calibration puck and xrite software with a target of 6500k, 2.2 gamma, 140 cd/m2, and using a 75 contrast I got a little different numbers than 10e, but I don’t know what I...

    Dell U2412M

    That is what I did on Friday. It took a little negotiating but they gave me that price when I said I would buy two right then.

    Dell U2412M

    I didn’t want to wait so I called Dell small business and told them I wanted the price others are getting here and they gave it to me. So far they gave me an Aug 22 delivery date. I was planning to use the NEC Spectraview II which is just the X-rite i1Display2 and the Eye-One Match 3...

    Dell U2412M

    Thanks for all the information in this thread. I am just waiting for LOLANG to get back to me so can I can order two of these. It will be interesting to see how they look compared to my NEC 3090wqxi. Dell is a pain to deal with sometimes but I still have a Dell 1901FP monitor that is still...

    Advice on work monitors

    From what I have read the NEC 2690 and 2490 are great monitors, and their high price might be worth it. It also looks like the Samsung 245T and 275T+ (with the Dell 2408 and 2709 being the equivalent) are good choices if you don't want to pay up for the NEC. Any thoughts on whether the...

    Zkv1 and Biges, thanks for the replies. Can you tell me how hot your monitors get?

    Advice on work monitors

    Sorry if this question has been asked before, but I looked through a number of threads and couldn't find an answer to my specific situation. I am looking for a monitor where gaming, movies, and perfect color are not terribly important. I will be staring at the monitor a lot for work, so I...

    HIGH end build

    Blu ray? I already have a player for my plasma, and the computer burners are too slow right now, I will add one later when they get faster. Why would you spend so much? Because the lesser machine some are advising will not handle Crysis on a 30", edit HD video, and run complex mathematical...

    HIGH end build

    Everyone, Thanks for all the responses, I appreciate them, and it has given me something to think about. Heather Taylor, My question for Puget is why do you charge so much? Currently I am waiting for a response from Perry on a build I emailed him.

    HIGH end build

    Yes, but there is a simple software switch to turn SLI on and off. So I will turn it on to play games on one monitor and off to run the two monitors. From what I understand that is where the dual GTX280 really shine, running in SLI on a large monitor with high resolution. I talked to AVA...

    HIGH end build

    Thanks for all the replies, but I am confused by most of them. To say that Falcon NW is too pricy doesn't make much sense because they are the same price as Maingear, only about 10% more than AVA direct, and a lot cheaper than Puget. Alienware does not have the best reputation on this site...

    HIGH end build

    A little more info: The price for a similar system at Maingear is about the same as Falcon, but I called them to ask what the test scores would be on their build and they said they would call me back but never did. So there is lost points in service level since they are not cheap. I don't...

    HIGH end build

    I am starting to get more and more confused over this so please help if you can, or feel free to be harsh just because you are bored. Since I listed to you guys about Alienware, I am still looking for an ultra high end machine. Here is a build from Falcon NW that I am looking at: ICON -...
