The only problem I'm having is the greys look slightly different on each monitor, most colors are 99% the same, just greys are messed up... which can be annoying D=
Follow along with the video below to see how to install our site as a web app on your home screen.

what in the world are you guys doing with two 24" screens? Can't game on them...Can't look at more than one thing at once usually.
You mean geeks.com? If you're only saving $20 I don't think it would be worth it... but if it was like $50-75 then yea if you're strapped for cash.
I won a $30 off $150 coupon on ebay for $2 and it worked on an online order and basically saved me tax + a little bit more...
Quick question for you guys, do you guys notice a bit of tearing on this monitor? I notice it on my desktop and in fps games. Vsyn has helped with a few games but games like counter strike vsync messes up the mouse and in this game I notice the most tearing.
I believe tearing is what its called, where the edges kinda get choppy and flicker a bit.
No. Tearing is when you turn fast and half the screen updates faster than the other half, so the image "tears" down a horizontal line. It's most common in FPS.
What you're describing it's the monitor's fault, but sounds like some issue with your graphics card and either texture filtering / LOD bias, or AA. Hard to say.
Ahh I see, well the video card is a new 9800gtx and I am running the most current driver for it.
I have no idea what els it could be..
Set everything in the Nvidia control panel to "high quality" possible and "negative LOD bias" to "clamp".
...on the desktop...
Are you using the DVI cable included with the monitor? Cause it's trash. Replace it. You can get a cable for ~$15 shipped from Monoprice.com
Just grabbed one from my local OfficeMax. Manufacturing date of October 2007 and box says 6ms. Hooked it up and it definitely looks like PMVA panel. Awesome!
Grats! You won the Soyo 24" Monitor lottery
return and buy again?Not really a lottery if you can see the box says 6ms
And I called customer service, my order had to be within 2 weeks to get the price difference... lame... Every other store I know of is 30 days...
How do you guys get deep blacks? I notice that my blacks seem "greyish" the overall monitor seems like it has a shade of white shining. I turned the high light off and it helped but it still didnt fix it, this is really noticeable when viewing at an angle.
Still trying to figure out my graphical issues, I hooked up my old crt and it was perfect
If I can get my colors right and fix my video issues then I think I finally found a keeper.
You sure you have a *VA screen and not a TN?
Turn down the brightness, I get nice blacks running like 25 contrast, 40 brightness on one monitor and 30 contrast, 40 brightness on the other, with some different settings under color..
Also try switching the color to "user" instead of 6500k... and adjusting them to get the colors right... I found about 40's on all 3 to be best for my 2 soyos...
what keyboard/mouse is that? looks like logitech
