    Official Dell 2407WFP Thread - Reviews, Revisions, Screenies

    . . Do you hippies install the Dell Driver disk that came with your 24"s.... Pros or Cons? Figured it was just bloat from Dell and would only add the "name" of the monitor to certain areas like Device Manager... It doesn't do anything for configuration or performance does it?

    So I noticed the sliders on the left have exclamations on them...are these numbers ok for my not oc'd evga 8800 GTS G92. Maybe just need to adjust the graph ranges? I think I have it configured fairly well....at 60% fan, the core temp hoovers around 40 c. Thanks for your replies

    1920x1200 - GT or GTS (or GTX)

    Thanks for the replies everyone...(MrMike, did you mean 19x12 resolution?) I'm probably going to go with the EVGA G92 GTS....for $329 and Crysis. Althought ZZF has the BFG G90 GTX for $399. I could probably hold out for the 9800's, but I would imagine the price to be over 5 Benjamins...no?
