    Narrowed down my 24" monitor selection to these: Suggestions?

    If that is the case (and assuming they fix bugs with the WZ), what were the main differences between the WZ and the W models? Anything significant? Also, what have the reputations been for BenQ and NEC? I know NEC well, but don't know much about BenQ. thanks.

    Narrowed down my 24" monitor selection to these: Suggestions?

    Thanks guys I appreciate it. Didn't know about the WZ model for the BenQ, so that is good to know. So it really boils down to the NEC or the BenQ. Anyone who has owned or used these, what is the clarity like when reading lots of web pages, blogs, code etc. Easy on the eyes? Gaming...

    Narrowed down my 24" monitor selection to these: Suggestions?

    I've read through a lot of threads here, reading reviews, experiences on quite a few 24" monitors. After doing that, i narrowed it down to the list below. The use of the monitor will be for general internet, reading, email, some photo viewing, coding and of course, gaming. So a wide variety...

    Vista and 4gb ram?

    Creative is notorious for producing crap drivers. I've had so many problems with their drivers, that I just gave up on them and went a different route. it sucks though, because of EAX. Some cards only support a certain level and new games are taking advantage of the new EAX levels creative is...

    Vista 64 bit OS question

    Fair enough. I guess my question arose because of reports stating software was not usable under 64bit. I'll comb the forums, see what I can find. Much obliged. S.

    Vista 64 bit OS question

    I have a copy of Windows Vista Ultimate and I see I can install the 64bit version of the OS, which is something I was thinking of doing. I'd like to take advantage of the extra memory usage (like to upgrade to 8gb) I have some questions though. Any known issues with installing and running...

    20", 22", 24" - Gaming, coding, reading and oh so more: Help

    So, I am in a state of confusion. I desperately need to upgrade my home monitor (19" Viewsonic VX922) to a larger monitor, either 20-24". However, I have certain requirements that I need to fill.

    Questions on new display and video card

    I'm thinking of buying a 21" or 22" monitor here, that will upgrade my 19". My basic question is that I am planning on running my display at 1600x1200, my preferred setting. Since I do game a lot, at what levels do you need to consider SLI setups? Is 1600x1200 a area that would require, or...

    Ya, i started to play the beta as well. pretty cool. I know supreme commander has dual monitor support and I see that has a growing trend for RTS games... However, if SLI is not supported on dual monitors, how demanding would dual 22" monitors be and what would be needed for very nice...
