These new TN panels are starting to look very nice. The monitor looks awesome even through a camera and the yellowish display that I'm currently using on an old old Sony VAIO. I might need to pick one of these up for my new rig. EDIT: How does this monitor compare with, say, the new Samsung...

For example, the Sandy Bridge 2600K processor (and the other i7s) are listed to support up to 1333MHz bandwidth of RAM. Everywhere I look, people seem to be using RAM that is faster than 1333MHz, and are also recommending the use (and overclocking) of RAM that is over 1333MHz. Someone...

What is the general consensus on this monitor's image quality versus the ASUS VW266H, an ASUS VE276Q or a newer monitor such as the Samsung BX2450? Would you guys consider a Dell Ultrasharp U2311H to have a quick enough response for first-person shooters?

Basically every self-proclaimed gamer I've talked to scoffs at the idea of using an IPS panel for fast-paced shooter gaming, and I've never had the opportunity to try any sort of gaming on an IPS. I have very little experience with using IPS displays. If there's a delay that's more than a...

Have IPS displays reached a suitable point in which their slower response time to TN panels becomes irrelevant for intense gaming-related purposes? First-person shooters and such... I am very sensitive to smoothness; in movies, if the scene pans I see it as a slideshow of images. Thanks.

Who are the OEMs and who produces the best panels? (specifically computer monitors) Brands off the top of my head: Samsung NEC Dell HP LG Acer ASUS ViewSonic etc...

This card looks awesome. I've actually been considering buying one of these if I can find an extra $250 somewhere.

My mousing "style": I use a relatively high sensitivity. I have arched first and middle fingers which I use for vertical movement. I use my wrist, which I plant on the desk, for horizontal movement. Which moving horizontally, the arch of the mouse is stabilized by the bottom of the...

I say this ends up being a far greater failure rate than 5-15%. What have you been doing, transferring 4TB of shenanigans already, anyway?

+1.

Hello all, this is my first post on these forums, but I plan on sticking around for a while. Anyways, I have a relatively straightforward query: Radeon 6950 vs. GTX 570? (standard and OC’ed, both) I feel like I could OC the 6950 enough so that an OC’ed 6970 would be a marginal improvement...
