    smallest 1080p LCD tv

    1080P isnt exaclty cheap to begin with. Its still very brand new, on top of buying a screen that is smaller, which actually costs more. Companies sell 1080P for larger tv's, so to find a smaller one, it would be more expensive (size wise). An example, would be a 42 inch West 1080P @ lets say...

    For me, any tv that makes normal tv, look like crap is a good thing, as I want the best possible HDTV picture, and not some analog upload. Thats why the Sony Bravia's are a step under the Samsung, you were looking at IMO. The Sony line, does a good job at showing SD cable, which is normal...

    Does the Dell 2405 scale well?

    I have never played, with black borders, so I cant answer that. But as for scaling, on lower res's, its nowhere worse, then any other monitor.

    Does the Dell 2405 scale well?

    Your talking about gaming correct? I am not a huge gamer, but there is no black bars, when i play, if I edit the resolution. No LCD, runs well enough in my opinion, to play at lower then native, as I am picky, but comparing my Dell to others, its no worse. I have played CS, WOW, FEAR, all...

    Your not being picky at all, like the others have said. All you need to do, is figure out, is the trouble it is causing enough, to try it agian? If not do like H-street maybe said and look elswhere if Dell isnt right for you? I wouldnt wait for SED, only because you dont know how long...

    Every post you submit, just proves how negative you are, so if you read it or not, I still gain enough laughs You dont need to pretend and act like your too cool for the room, I know you read it. Hell, if you read the first post, you have read them all.

    Samsung 940b, decent LCD for my budget?

    If 19 is enough, I would go with that monitor, myself. I would probably stick with a 21 inch CRT though, for a while, and then buy a 19 or 20 inch widescreen atleast, or go a bit bigger. Of course, thats not in the 350 dollar range, but I mean, saving up, but if thats not an option, I would pick...

    what looks better 2405 fpw or 37 westington

    I havnt used a 37, but I have a 24 inch Dell, and I think anything bigger, that close, would really get to me. I like sitting at a normal desk, distance, no matter the size of the screen, so the 37 would be a bit much. Now if its for DVD watching and games, your probably not going to be 2 feet...

    How did I contradict myself? Who are you to say "those kinds of posts are rediculous"? I guess I should of just expected, that your just happy with mediocrity ? When spending 1000 dollars on a monitor, its Dells responsibility, to have the monitor meet your expectations, and if not, they...

    The "perfect" Dells are being viewed by the CEO's and talking heads, so they are somewhere. sadly we just may never see them.

    4th 2405fpw. I give up......

    One thing that sucks about Dell, and I am sure its the same with any other company, is that if you have your RMA, to return a product, you still have to wait in line, with the people who are trying to return products as well. Like if you call, to say "I need a new Dell" they should then give...

    I feel ya Icewind. I was only on my 2nd 2405, and it was still a pain in the ass. Mine kept shutting off, on the first one. I have not had any dead pixels, or backlighting problems, so it could of been a bad batch, if somehow you were given the same ones from a certain area? If I were...

    Actually, I would say, you have a bigger problem, trying to be rude, to someone, for no reason. Last time I checked, this forum is related to computers, not global economics, or a broad forum, to talk about life issues. If he posted that, in a forum, just to showoff, he has $1000 bucks...

    LG Flatron L1920P... did I make a big mistake?

    I dont think it was, unless your now wanthing something bigger, for the same price? HOw much was the LG? I wouldnt reccoment any other 19 incher, if you already OWN the LG, as it be useless to return it, and go through the hastle, if nothing is worth with that one but if the price, is the...

    Panasonic 26" TV

    I was in your boat a month ago Pano 26 inch, LCD. I bought the HDMI to DVI cable, and I still was not happy with the text. I downloaded a program, that can fine tune your settings, beyond your video card settings, and still no luck. I have a 6600GT video card, which thought would be...

    Dell 2405FPW Color Accuracy?

    I see the different shades. I would bet, the Samsung is better, I mean your paying an extra 400, but ya. Edit- now that you replied, I can see the borders, only because you told me, to more or less look for that. But at first glance, without reading the post, It was the light to...

    Could you tell the difference?

    Personally, if the extra money, dosnt matter, or you dont have a need for the 30 dollar difference or w/e it is, go for the 4ms, only because its better on paper. Will you notice it? I doubt it, unless you had two side by side, which you wont have a chance for, unless you buy both.

    Dell LCD off of Ebay, who to buy from?

    anyone with a 100% feedback, sure helps Just go through the sellers, see who has sold Monitors before, and what the feedback is. If a guy had 97% or less (even 98%), and has sold 1000 products, you know there is a chance for a problem

    What are advantages of wide screen for non-gamer?

    I have a hard time finding anything I dont prefer, when I use a widescreen, even if its not being use. Take for example, you reading this post. If your screen is longer, you wont have to move the page over, if it extends past your viewing size. Or pictures ppl send. I can look at them as I...

    Whats the least powerful video card, for the Dell 2405

    not really no. The 6600 runs very hot, you can put it in a fridge, and see a very small drop. Ive got four fans, a coolmaster case. My CPU runs at about 38c while in use in a game, and about 28c on idle. The fan stinks on the 6600, but you can peak those things at about 100c and not do...

    On idle (desktop), I am at about 58, 60c with my 6600gt for the gpu the others are way cooler (cpu, system), as the 6600 rides hot. If I am gaming, I am at about 80-85

    2405fpw non-native res photos?

    to me, anything under 1920by1200 looks like dog shit. Nothing would be worth using. Only in games, does it look decent bellow the native. But on my desktop, nothing. If you want some pics I can show ya, but its not pretty

    Where can a buy a new 2005fpw for CHEAP?

    how much more cheaper do you want, without going used? If your going to spend 430, or 460, I would just bite the bullet and buy it from Dell, its safe, for any dead pixels, returns, all that fun stuff. Once you try and go cheaper, you going to get into "refurbshed" or no warrenty, which...
