    final 2 but which one?

    With all due respect, I do own a dell 2405. It is a great monitor but from what I have read these two models are superior. I am trying to get some feedback. Also, I believe there is no much information on these units because they are NEW not because "no one is buying them".

    final 2 but which one?

    I have narrowed my search for a new widescreen lcd down to the samsung 244T and the Eizo S2410W. Sadly there is not too much information about either monitor out. Which would you recommend and why?

    any thoughts/reviews on Eizo S2410W?

    How would you rank this lcd for gaming? I cannot seem to find any reviews on it. Are they any better 24" monitors for gaming? (currently have dell 2405)

    another 2405 or something else?

    Isn't there two different versions of this lcd (one with lower response time)? If so, how do I tell which one the store is selling?

    another 2405 or something else?

    My office needs a new monitor so I am giving it my dell 2405 and they will buy me any new lcd I want. I want to preferably stay at 24" but I could go a little smaller if there is a much better monitor. Nothing over 24". With that being said, what is the best gaming lcd 24" out there or...

    Logitech G5 and Copperhead Razer

    I got my razer copperhead yesterday. In the previous battle of diamondback vs mx518, I preferred the 518. The diamondbacks side buttons were just in the wrong place for me. However, I LOVE the copperhead. The side buttons are perfect (although it seems a little strange to have to move...

    dpi vs sensativity?

    This is probaly a dumb question but I am really confused on this. On my mx518, it had buttons to change the dpi of the mouse. The higher the dpi, the "quicker" the mouse moved. I pretty much understood this concept and used it. Now I have the copperhead and I am totally confused. It has...

    need help, computer just turns off

    I had this problem before (about 2 weeks ago) where it occurred for about 2 days but didn't happen again until now. I cannot get it to repeat iteself so it is very hard for me to troubleshoot. My computer just turns itself off and will not turn on again (or turns on for about 3 seconds then...

    why only newegg and creative?

    Is it just me or does anyone else find it funny that only newegg has the creative x-fi elite and fatality in stock? Hell, not even creative themselves have it in stock.

    I am running an 4400 (overclocked to 4800) and have an asus sli premimum mb with 2 xfx 7800gtx (stock oc'd to 490) in sli. I only get a 9,200 with new nvidia drivers. What could be wrong? I have all the latest drivers installed.

    Good game plan or not

    I was thinking about waiting of the fps but then again, I'm not sure if it is worth it. I could buy the basic model now (about $130). By the time there are actually any games that use the x-ram on the fatality I figure that card will down to at least $200 (probally less). Then I could sell...

    what x-fi to get?

    I'm surprised they told you that because I called today and was told 8 weeks. I want the fatality but not sure if I really want to wait 8 weeks :(

    what x-fi to get?

    I am kind of curious what you guys recommend. I really only use my computer for games (and some occasional music) as I have a home theater that is MUCH better. What do you guys recommend I get? I know the elite is out as I have no need for it. The platinum is available now, and has...

    IBM VS. Dell

    I have never owed an IBM so I cannot say anythigng about it. Based on everyone's feedback and reviews, it is really great. However, I am not sure if it is worth the price difference. If money is of no concern then go with ibm. But, to get the most bang for your buck, I would go dell.

    new price from dell? Did I get a good deal now?

    Thanks for the feedback, I have placed the order. The deal was done though small business. I told them that home was offering 40% off and they offered to beat it (which I showed in my last thread) but many people told me to change the ram and that I was paying too much. So I changed the...

    did I get a good deal?

    ok, last question, should I keep the 256 in and install a 1 gig or just get rid of the 256 and only have the 1 gig?

    did I get a good deal?

    I am going to call and find out about the warrenty if you change ram. If the warrenty is still in tact, I can go to 256 ram which would drop my price by an astonding $450. Therefore, I would get the same system but only 256 ram for $1558. What do you guys think of that deal?

    did I get a good deal?

    ERFUS, thank you for your reply. However, if you personally upgrade the ram, will that void the warrenty with dell?

    did I get a good deal?

    thank you bk but I think you misunderstand my comment. I have heard that only 1 dim slot can be accessed by the end user. If this is true, I would assume that the 256k ram they put in would be in this "unacessable" area (leaving me only 1 blank sim slot to install new ram). Am I mistaken...

    did I get a good deal?

    but I thought on most laptops you can only upgrade 1 dim (I heard the other was not reachable). If this is true, are you guys recommending I upgrade to 1,256mb ram?

    sony t/350 or dell 700m?

    Which of these two laptops would you get? I have a desktop and really will not be doing any gaming on them so it will be mostly for email, surfing, light office work, and watching dvd's. Thanks.

    is defective better then the real one?

    I sure did and it does seem like the overly bright one is how it is supposed to be. The real question I am wondering is if my lcd is different, does it just mean that it is just not as bright and will work fine or as long as the normal 2405 or does it mean that something is wrong and I will...

    HELP: Dead/shimmering pixels in Dualview/clone mode (Dell 1905fp)

    I think I had the same problem. Can you post a pic? If it is the same problem, it is not the monitor (I know because I got an exchange). FYI, I have a 6800 ultra oc and I am starting to think that may be the probelm.

    is defective better then the real one?

    Hey guys, I finally got my replacement for my 2405 (because this one was producing some crazy pixels sometimes). Anyway, after checking both monitors, they both did it so it is obvsiouly not the monitor. However, I did notice something strange. I returned my first 2405 because it was...
