The 3m version is in stock on Amazon. There doesn't seem to be any certified mini-DP to DP cables, but there is an adapter, here, made by the same company that is claimed to be certified for AMD cards.
I found a fix for the displayport issue, well both displayport issues with this monitor.
First, to fix 3d mode turning off: Turning off GPU scaling worked for me
Second, to fix the screen randomly losing connection: it apparently has to do with uncertified cables. There is only a single VESA...
I wonder, has anyone experienced this issue with regular non-mini Displayport? I haven't had a problem yet with my 15ft DP cable from Monoprice hooked to my 5870s' full-size port.
Have you messed with the Response Time setting? The Fastest setting feels great in motion, though you must remember to set it to Normal when using 3D modes.
It only takes a quick press to turn on the glasses; holding it for that long will cause it to resync. You'll see the button turn green within a second or so of pressing it. They will turn off when you leave 3D mode.
There's the Samsung S27A700D, which is a S27A750D with a traditional case/stand and DVI-D instead of Displayport. I'm unsure as to when it will be released.
If you haven't yet, make sure to install the monitor drivers on the CD it came with. You should be have access to 120Hz after that.
On the 3D issue, I don't have a solution. It happens to me as well. Strangely I do remember it turning itself off one time, while I was messing with Catalyst...
Side-by-side fits both views onto one 1080p image. Your monitor, when set to the appropriate 3D mode, splits the image, stretches each half from 960x1080 to 1920x1080, and converts that to sequential 3D for shutter glasses. This works ok for the most part, but the extra aliasing is noticeable...
I would wait on that 5870 right now. There's a problem with Tridef and HD5000 series graphics cards' Displayport output. I have a 5870 crossfire setup and at the moment I'm limited to Side-by-side mode 3D with the newest Samsung-specific Tridef software, which is the only driver that gives me...
Well, it looks like it might be an AMD driver issue?
I retract my previous statement that the regular version of TriDef 3D doesn't work. It did say that a compatible 3D display was not connected. That is, until I did an uninstall/driversweep of Catalyst 12.1 preview and installed 11.5b.
Once...
That is the method I use currently. In BF3, the glasses are working; I'm just getting a 2d image. In every other game I try with the Samsung-specific TriDef, I get side-by-side. I also have yet to see any automatic transition to 3D mode.
What version of Catalyst are you using?
To Burpy, that...
I received my S27A750D from TigerDirect today, 4 days after I ordered it (it was backordered then as well), so you shouldn't worry about waiting long. I have been blown away with how fluid 120Hz feels! Unfortunately, I have yet to get 3D working.
I'm have two 5870's in Crossfire, and I'm...
Polarization avoids requiring 120Hz by limiting alternating horizontal lines to each eye instead of alternating frames. You still get 60Hz per eye, but only at a resolution of 1920x540. While this may be an acceptable compromise on its own, there's other related issues that may sway you the...
I'm pretty sure it will not accept a 120hz input, so HDMI will be sufficient. This isn't anything really new; they're just applying their passive tech to IPS screens. Hopefully it will come with the same polarization as their HDTVs and not their other monitors.
Watch out before you get an LG Passive 3D monitor.
LG's HDTVs can use RealD glasses, while their monitors cannot. This is because their polarization is not the same. They are both circular polarized, but 45 degrees rotated from each other. If you use the wrong glasses on either, they will fail...
Mine has the reference cooler and looks identical to my reference XFX 5870 I purchased right after it was released. I haven't looked at the PCB itself to compare, though.
I received mine on the 28th. I see nothing wrong with the card; it looks brand new. It's sitting happily next to my other 5870, blowing my face off with the performance I'm now getting in games. Metro 2033 is finally playable at max settings. So beautiful! :)
It took them about 3 days from when the shipping label was made to actually ship the item, but it should be here in on Tuesday. I'll report back when it get it.
I went from a 4870 to a 5870, and I saw temperatures and noise drop a good bit. With pretty warm ambient temperature I get around 45-50C idle and around 75C in a demanding game. The fan isn't spinning nearly as fast as the 4870 at these temperatures, though.
Does anyone have any experience with infrared multitouch screens? I have never seen one in the wild, and would like to know how well it works before considering this monitor. The only thing I know of that uses them is Microsoft Surface.
To what reiterate what LC155 and albovin said:
What you're most likely seeing is the anti-glare (AG) coating on that particular IPS monitor. Your TN panel has a less aggressive AG coating, or none at all. The type of panel has little to do with it.
You can find IPS panels with no graininess as...
It sounds like overscan to me. Check your HDTVs settings and look for a zoom option and play with that. You should be on "Fill" or the equivalent right now. You're looking for a "Standard" setting that makes normal TV have black bars on each side. If that's not an option I think the nvidia...
Not quite. For example, I have a 64GB SSD with 40GB used. If I delete/change a file I will have the last 24GB plus whatever extra there may be to wear level. For your example to be true, there could only be 1 cell being used for storage ever.
What you are probably seeing is temporal dithering, which flashes between two colors to fake a different color. Static dithering doesn't flash but looks worse.
You should try borrowing another LCD and see if your problem persists.
It isn't really advertised at all, sadly. Your monitor is using a TN panel, which all use some form of dithering. If you want to avoid dithering altogether you will have to look at PVA or IPS panels. They are much more expensive and relatively harder to find (you won't find a 19" without a TN...
They serve different purposes only because you choose to do so. Not every HDTV can work well for PC but the option is there and it is not something to dismiss so easily. 16:9 monitors are replacing 16:10 so that difference is going away. The dot pitch issue is moot because it's up to how high a...
What would dot pitch tell you at a given screen size other than the native resolution? The only thing you're saying is that PC LCD monitors have higher resolutions at a given size. They are still both the same technology. I'd go as far as to say that the majority of people couldn't even utilize...
