    Looking for a new monitor, 22-26"

    Thanks for the tip, looks quite reasonably priced. I've been through several places looking at customer reviews. Is the stand really that flimsy? And I hear the corners/edges shift in color/brightness. Is this really noticeable when surfing the web or watching a movie?

    Looking for a new monitor, 22-26"

    I'm looking for a monitor around 22" to 26". It will be used mostly for gaming on a pc. I have an 8800gtx to power it. My budget at the moment is about 600. I know about the DoubleSight, but it's just out of my budget, as it is about 750 shipped for me. Thanks.

    Dual monitors in the wrong order

    You know that window in display settings where it shows the 2 monitors? Just drag the monitors into place on that.

    Yea, i hear capture cards aren't very good for consoles due to low quality output and input lag. Any other suggestions?

    Dell 30 " monitor resolution issue.

    The problem is that your monitor doesn't have an internal scaler, so it can only take 2560x1600 or 1280x800 since 1280x800 can be shown by having 4 pixels representing 1 pixel.

    Scaling help with wii

    I'm considering buying a 30" monitor right now, but have one issue. What would happen if I connected my wii through the vga cable to a vga to dvi adapter to the monitor? I don't think any of the 30" monitors have internal scalers, so that is a big issue for me. Would I have to purchase an...

    PVR Software+Hardware

    What do you guys reccommend for the best video quality for SDTV hardware encoder card? From what I'm reading the ATI 650 series has the best video quality. For the software, I like SageTV but it has a lot of stuff I don't need. I'm not looking for front end software, just something that can...

    Help with monitor selection. (Westy 37" vs. Dell 24".)

    I have actually. My friend uses one, and I personally can't stand the monitor. I'm a big fan of lots of desktop space. Use 2 24" monitors myself.

    Help with monitor selection. (Westy 37" vs. Dell 24".)

    I wouldn't be able to stand a pixel pitch of 0.4266, which is almost twice that of my BenQ. If I wanted a 37" monitor, it'd have to have a really high resolution personally. And I have 2 8800GTX in SLi, so high resolution gaming is no problem for me.

    Help with monitor selection. (Westy 37" vs. Dell 24".)

    Because many if not most computer games can run higher than 1080p. 1920x1200, 2560x1600, etc.

    Help with monitor selection. (Westy 37" vs. Dell 24".)

    There is very little bleeding with the BenQ, and blacks are pretty good. If you want even better blacks, wait for the Z version that uses BFI technology to make blacks darker. If you wish to view hdcp content on your monitor, you need to have the monitor HDCP capable or else it can't decrypt the...

    Help with monitor selection. (Westy 37" vs. Dell 24".)

    Personally, I love my BenQ FP241W. It's one of the better 24" ones out there. If you're going to be using the component input, don't get the dell since it's component input is terrible from what I read on this forum. The BenQ is getting many good reviews too. If you're just going to use it for...

    Help with monitor selection. (Westy 37" vs. Dell 24".)

    Hence the relatively part. Both 24 and 30 inch Monitors, not tvs, have higher resolutions despite being quite a bit smaller diagonally. Now if there were a 37 inch monitor, chances are it would have a resolution greater than or equal to 2560x1600. The Westy was designed to be for Hi def...
