The DH review seems really comprehensive to me, and with all the controversy going on over here at [H] and the rest of the community I think maybe someone got their ego out on a limb here. I am not saying [H] is wrong but calling every review on the net "canned benchmarks" seems really biased to...
Just ordered mine from Newegg, last time I waited for the 3870 and did not buy it then the price shot up and I don't want the same thing to happen here, although it is not Xmas time so it should be ok but hey why take the chance :). The Asus one comes with the new version of COH and I did not...
Looks like the card did pretty well overall vs the GTX ultra, waiting for some prices and I will probably get one when it comes out later this month or next month. Below is a translated page that explains the card won 17 out of 13 and seems those are probably due to driver issues perhaps...
If you can boot into safe mode, but not into regular windows then you have a driver issue, hardware is out since you can boot in at least one mode. It is not your motherboard and your memory seems fine to me, have you installed any new devices lately or updated any drives for your system...
As they stated in their review it looks like a driver issue, honestly do you think if your giving a card love you would show some crazy resolutions at super high levels (of which most people do not have that size of a monitor) or show super high frame rates on lets say 19" monitors? Come on use...
Dammit uploaded the wrong one thought I added the thumbnail version :(. Hehe guess I got used to that 1920X1200 rez and resizing isnt that bad with it :).
Just got my 26" Acer in and the rest of my desk, I have a lot of computer parts on the shelves never can have enough spare parts when something goes bad :). The stand is still on the monitor I was not sure about placement of the LCD mount and so forth so I just removed the bottom part of the...
Just got it in today, all I can say is it is huge, get a DVI-D cable. I got mine from Newegg and it is the December 2006 one so the DVI is not an issue, zero dead pixels. I was wondering what is a good monitor calibration utility? I will be doing some searching and posting a full review with...
Ah my mistake, thought only the other one had height adjustment, my advice get a nice monitor arm, I just installed mine and I cannot imagine not having one now :D .
The issue of this model being discontinued is correct to some degree. Although Westinghouse will probably continue making these for a couple more months, as of March 1, 2007 all TV's regardless of size will have to be made with at least the ATSC tuner that is widely available to most TV's...
I got the same setup, tarantula and copperhead from Razer, I love both of them, the keyboard is by far the best i have used, I also own a G15 which I still like however the Razer is such quality that I do not consider them on the same level IMO :). Razer FTW!!!!
Yes but did you get a chance to calibrate both for best picture or just what you say in the store? Keep in mind most peeps in the stores take them out of the box and do not adjust them for the best PQ :)
Here is a link I found today to another cheap 1080p ( I am assuming a new entry as I have never heard of these guys) Akai 1080p
Has anyone seen or picked one of these up anywhere? This model is not even on their website as of yet Akai Website they have been around awhile and made a number...
I know a few people have gotten one from costupdate, an ebay seller that ships worldwide. I think it ships via DHL do a search for costupdate and you should find their info. Just remember you have to pay any taxes added on to whatever the cost of the item and shipping are. I think he paid 231...
I seriously doubt anyone who buys a 37" westy is really hoping or even wanting to carry it around with them to a LAN party. People get it for a fixed position monitor not a LAN. :eek:
Anyone have any advice for getting this overseas? I tried a lot of e-tailers but the box is like .8 inches past their regulation size limit. Looking for any options you know of. Thanks.
I have always heard the rule of using 1.5x whatever the viewing size of your monitor is good for view distance etc.. If you really want to know for sure one thing you can do is hit your local electronics store and stand 6 feet away from a 32" screen and see how you like it. Move forward some...
I think for the 37" westinghouse the viewing distance at minimum is 2-3 feet. It would really depend on the resolution you are using and video source etc... Keep that in mind when asking for the best viewing distance.
Yes some pics also please of your PS/Dreamweaver or whatever you use would be great. I ordered this as well thought it would be great for that :). At least I hope so hehe, if not could always hang it in my bedroom for a nice TV, damn wife keeps bugging me.
I think it is because dealing with UPS and FedEx are much easier, you have tracking info and I am sure that there are less restrictions with packages. Plus dealing with things being shipped overseas is a concern as maybe returns are higher using that process or something.
I signed up for an...
This is a site I found earlier today and did some checking and seems legit so far. I will be testing it out soon. This site enables those who live overseas w/ military to order from any website regardless if they ship FPO/APO!!
Basically this works for military people or those who know...
Update on availability:
Newegg.com is now selling the 37w3 westy for $1099, $400 off instant savings. Get em while they last. Here is the link:Get the Westy
I do not know why people keep up these pipe dreams of a $500 dollar deal. Can you really believe that even with SEVERE buying power you can get a monitor from any company for that cheap? Assuming you could, what you are basically saying then is that every other company out there is trying to...
I was told it would be 7-14 days until B&H got it and then it would ship to me, I am guessing a month. They order it from Westinghouse and so that is the reason for the extended delay. I ordered mine this month and should be here by the end of it or beginning of next month.
Avia is a home theater calibration dvd, it does audio and video and is leaded with test patterns for both plus a guide on how to interpret the information and the test patterns. I think you can get it from Amazon, it has been awhile since I bought mine.
Run the Avia calibration DVD if that is what you are looking for. Here is a site that does a test for the 3 transistors R, G, B. Test There are many other websites, just do a search on google for LCD test.
Yup that is what I did, I was debating 26 Acer or the Westy, waiting on the westy to arrive now, but I am sure i made the right choice :). Will post pics to the official thread here in a bit.
Oh believe me that will be a day to celebrate, and I will post my pics of the setup and so forth, talk about my experience with the westy...you know the good stuff :)
