    Is 4k even a viable day to day resolution?

    I agree, I m using 1280x800 on 30". I just buy the monitors for their real size not their resolution.

    Q6600 Bottleneck

    Try to test your game at your usual resolution without cpu overclock, note the fps. Now lower that resolution in the same game and note the fps again, if the fps gets good boost compared to the previous resolution then its not a cpu bottleneck yet. You can keep lowering resolution until you get...

    It seems that hopes for a good heat handling from haswell is gone according to this. http://www.overclock.net/t/1391596/proof-that-intel-most-likely-using-tim-again-with-haswell-ihs On the other hand if you are waiting for haswell and if you are not in a rush, there is supposed to be an ivy...

    Dell U3014 unboxing :)

    Have fun with your new sauna :) I also have 2 older 30" from dell and I cant turn both of them on for a while without using the air conditioner or the room temperature rise very quickly. I cant even imagine using 3 of them. That's why I was tempted to switch with the u3014 with their cooler...

    Dell U3014 News

    I read on a forum that the u3014 has over-saturated greens when lowering brightness under 40, which is required I think since those screens tend to be super bright, particularly around 15-20 brightness. And the factory calibration seems to be done at 50 which makes it useless for this. Anyone...

    Dell U3014 News

    Yes from sales or buying from other websites than dell. In Europe it seems that it can already be found at 1078,9 euro and dells monitors are known to be priced higher in europe and often seeing price as if 1usd=1euro or worse (Ie: on dell use site the u2713hm is at $699 while the same screen on...

    Games become choppy after 20min of gameplay

    I had a similar problem with kaspersky internet security doing something in the background after about 30 mins. Try to check if your av isn't doing that as well.

    It looks like the 1899$ is in singapore dollar currency, it seems to be worth less than us dollar.

    Dell U3014 News

    I use the dell screens at the moment since I use quite a bit of different resolutions due to my different devices connected and applications, I couldn't really go for something without a good hardware scaler so as to get a good picture quality even in non native resolution. Does the pa301w have...

    Led panel mostly so much less heat generated. My 3011 is working as a secondary heater at the moment :rolleyes: and I the 3008 can get a even bit more heat so I cant run both of them at the same time unless its very cold. The 3014 will supposedly have a much less grainy anti glare than the...

    Dell U3014 News

    I have both the 3008 and 3011 and have no problem switching input. Its just a matter of going into the menu and selecting the correct input. Both have great hardware scaler so we can put anything on them (ps3/xbox/tv etc..) without having ugly pictures due to bad scaling. It would have been nice...

    I wonder if the recent news about dell being bought and focusing on enterprise customers will have any effect on the release of this screen ?

    Intel 520 Cherryville SSD

    Yes it is not related to flash but less writing endurance will also affect overall reliability which is already not great in recent ocz ssd. I read somewhere that tlc was about 10x less endurance compared to current mlc which would put tlc endurance at ~500 writing cycle, and with those cells...

    Intel 520 Cherryville SSD

    I hope this is a joke, the last ocz drives already aren't very reliable, this will mean that their drive will be much less reliable after this move to tlc which was in the first place planned for use in device low number of write such as cheap usb keys.

    Display Calibrator?

    I have found reviews of the pantone huey pro and other calibrator that might help you here not sure how close it is to the non pro version though but the pro reviewed here actually looked correct considering the price.

    No more new 30inch computer screen?

    That screen looks nice, but for this price without a good scaler and more input I dont think I' d use it to replace my current screen. I think my ideal screen for now would be this screen or maybe something similar using ips with a nice scaler like the one in the 3008 from dell (If there's no...

    No more new 30inch computer screen?

    What good offering are you talking about? There is still much room for improvement in the 30" monitors currently on the market. Most reasonably priced 30" (not costing much more than 2k$) I have seen lack many things or are flawed. Just replacing the backlight on current 30" with LED would...

    No more new 30inch computer screen?

    It seems to have been an eternity since the last release of a 30" screen and I was looking forward to buy a new 30" led screen from dell, nec, apple (whoever released one actually :p) unfortunately I just came accross this web site saying in a few of their news that we may not see new 30" panels...

    Simple poll: best 24" all-rounder

    The guy in the picture is using a dual display(a mitsubushi crt and a dell 2408). In this picture the guy is moving forward and you can see that on the crt that a player has appeared on his screen while he didn't yet appear on the dell 2408. That is the true difference between huge lag and...
