I'm a mac user. though I have vista in bootcamp for occasional gaming.. anyway. I don't really understand the advantage of this over the built-in MacUpdater

i got a 6inch generic dvi cable from NCIX.com for ~$18 much better than the $50 or so futureshop wants for their's.. the difference is fairly subtle but i do notice the sharpness difference. plus, dont you just want to know you're getting the most out of it? :)

you sure about that? i read it was still 1+. or atleast you could return it to the store you got it from without fuss. some stores, like ncix, have a '30 days zero dead pixel' waranty option for extra $20 or so i believe.. i didnt bother with it and i didnt get any dead pixels anyway so lucky me?

ncix has the L194-WTX on sale right now.. its 5ms though: http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=19619&vpn=L194WTX-BF&manufacture=LG%20Electronics&promoid=1022

here's a quick list i made up using calc.. 1360x850 1280x800 1152x720 1024x640 960x600 etc etc... if you want to know how to check just type in any horrizontal resolution into calc, and divide it by 1.6 (16:10 = 1.6 AR), inversly you could punch in the vertical resolution and divide it by...

you didnt buy a display model or anything did you? ive had 'smelly' monitors too but its always just been dust. (except for the one time i found out my roommate had used the holes in the side of the monitor to hold a stick of incense.. :eek: )

hey, thats 20 POINT ONE! :mad: lols. my guess would be the extra two inches would indeed be nice yes.

hey guys, so i did end up going with this monitor (LG L204WT).. so far so good. having a weird problem with the mouse.. it seems sorta jumpy. raising the mouse speed to max helps.. this isnt 'input lag' is it? ill try different mouse drivers or something right now im just using windows default...

you could adjust the settings in the dvd software you're using. every player that i know has some sort of basic 'brightness/contrast/tint/hue/saturation/etc/etc' sliders somewhere you can use to tweak the dvd playback. sad to hear about the lack of scaling but its not a big deal for me ill...

sweet. i read somewhere that there was an option in the panels menu to enable/disable 1:1 pixel scaling (so in effect if you were viewing say 1024x768 there'd be tons of black around it but itd be viewed in 'native res' kinda).. but in this forum been reading that it DOESNT have this option...

sorry i dont really have the links handy but here's a comparison between the samsung 205bw and the LG L204WT (20.1inch comparison) http://www.hardforum.com/showpost.php?p=1030302311&postcount=765 ive read others though and it seems fairly consistant that most of the samsungs have a unbalanced...

cool! does anyone know if nvidia has these problems at all?

from what i've read the backlight is a pretty common problem so i dunno if its worth your time.

(copied from my post in the 940bw thread. just desperate for some help) hey guys, i'm having a bit of a problem choosing between monitors. I just got a samsung 19inch 941BW for christmas today.. but i found out my mom bought it before it was on sale ($199cdn on sale but she paid $260 for it)...

hey guys, i'm having a bit of a problem choosing between monitors. I just got a 941BW for christmas today.. but i found out my mom bought it before it was on sale ($199cdn on sale but she paid $260 for it).. so im wondering if i should keep it or trade it in and pay the extra $30 to go to a...

mine is pretty recent.. i had been using the same aiw 8500dv card for years, and it was serving me well. then for nearly a week i had the case sitting on its side under my desk because i was backing stuff up onto a new hardrive before i took out the old one and put the new one in etc. done it...

i noticed a few people talking about 'looking forward' to consoles and pc's playing games together... well.. uh.. they do. admitedly not much, but they can occasionally. such as quake 3 arena for dreamcast. didnt you ever see the 'dreamcast only' servers when you were browsing the servers from...

(please note: I only read 3 out of the previous 6 pages so ignore me if im just repeating) I used to be a hardcore pc gamer. like I used to go to/host lan parties at least once a month for a couple years... played everything from x-wing alliance to battle realms... but then in the last few...
