If you are able to order the laptop from the manufacturer with Windows won't it have the proper drivers? This will be used strictly for business, no gaming.
Just curious are any of you still using Windows 7 on any of the newer non-touch (Late 2015 or 2016) laptops. If so are you having any difficulty? I need a new laptop and am trying to decide which OS to order, I would prefer 7 if everything works as it should.
Thanks!
I also am really surprised that these two companies aren't the leaders. I own an Eizo CX241. I don't use the wide gamut at all as I have it calibrated for SGRB. This monitor has virtually no back light bleed, or some of the other problematic issues found on the IPS panel lotteries. I works...
That was going to be my next question: Just how good is the scaling? Does the "not that great" scaling grade apply to Windows 7 as well. I actually use Windows 7 because being a System Administrator for a large Healthcare Organization, we are required to use Windows 7 and other tools that are...
I know that almost every monitor made today is higher resolution, faster, and is sporting either G-Sync or FreeSync. So why do I want one that is prehistoric? In fact I want it for my vision but it has to be quality and have:
- Solid stand that supports height adjustment and 90 degree...
With the sales I'm seriously considering ordering one of these. I have two quick questions:
1. Will this resolution be recognized and function properly with Windows7?
2. I am not a gamer, I will be doing mostly programming, data base design, and general office work. Will my Asus GTX 970...
I'm in the market for a high-end 27"- 32" monitor for business use. This monitor will see the entire gambit (Data Base, Spread Sheet, Graphics, Programming, and etc.) of business use with little or no gaming. I really am looking for a quality screen with price being pretty much open. I would...
Will my Asus Strix 970 be sufficient for this monitor. I will be doing little if any gaming, mostly programming, databases, and graphics or will I need a 980?
As we all know most of our time on this forum is discussing the incoherent issues that beset most of the monitors and their panels being sold today. Much of this is due directly to the reputed panel lottery that we all participate in when purchasing.
Years ago when you bought a few of the then...
Yes I changed the preset to sRGB. You will also find that the brightness isn't the same as you can extend it to 220. I've got mine set on 100 and it's equivalent to roughly 40 on a standard monitor.
As I stated in this thread I just purchased an Eizo CX-241. Once I decided that it was a keeper I went to both the Eizo global and their USA site to register the display in case I ever need warranty service. That's where the mystery begins, there is no registration process on either site...
Richard unfortunately I don't possess the tools to test those things. Since gaming is not my primary goal most of those statistics aren't that important to me. My primary purpose for buying this monitor was to have a panel that was entirely glow free with no banding and i have it with this...
I got my CX-241 yesterday and from what I can tell thus far it is extraordinary. I'd go as far to say that aside from the $10 - $15K monitors the Radiologists use at the hospital system where I work, this one is the best I've seen. So far all of the good from IPS and none of the bad. After...
I just downloaded the newest drivers which are about three days old. I removed the old drivers with REVO and performed a clean installation except for the two 3D drivers which I don't use. The GPU is now working as it should with displayport.
I'm not sure this is always a cable issue...There are a number of people having the same issue with the GTX 970 and 980. I've read lots of threads and it doesn't seem to be isolated to one manufacturer. I have a new ASUS Strix 970 and I've tried several cables and all outputs work fine except...
NCX ... Congrats! You are doing it the right way. It has always been my thought that where possible a review sample should be obtained from a retailer like New Egg, Amazon, B&H, and etc. I know it's more costly, but results will likely be much more representative as compared to what readers...
I don't know if this works or not because I haven't tried it yet, but read this post by Serko70 on the GeForce Forums:
I have the same problem. It's not the port or cable as it works during boot. It is Windows drivers not properly recognizing displayports!. I found this solution elsewhere...
I don't know how prevalent receiving "cherry picked products" is these days. Up until three years or so ago I reviewed motherboards, gpus, cases, processors, memory, and the like for several different web sites. I had over 200 reviews published and can say quite comfortably that some of the...
The CX271 is listed at about $350 more than the CX271 and they won't be available at most resellers until the middle of November. I actually like the 1920x1200 resolution better. My current HP monitor is about ready to die and has been in optimal shape for months, it's > 6 yrs old.
Thanks guys, I'm hoping this will be the perfect answer. The Easy Pix is supposedly the tool that comes with the CG series. It's $179 if you buy it separately but $85 if buy it with the display .
Is it worth paying the extra $85 for the Easy Pix tool? They have it with just the Color Navigator and also with both Color Navigator and the Easy Pix tool.
I'm thinking of ordering either an Eizo CX241 or a NEC272W. As I understand it both can be taken out of wide gamut mode. I'm sick of ordering cheaper displays and having to play the lottery. Most of what I do will be programming and system administration and some occasional gaming. Thoughts?
I totally agree with the three of you! I wish some manufacturer made a display in the under $1,000 range that would have what we all want. Of course each of our needs are different. I don't game much anymore, most of my need is for an above average quality monitor that I can sit in front of...
I received my BenQ BL2710PT yesterday and it was defective out of the box. The on-off switch and the OSD touch button panel were completely borked. The monitor could not be powered off an none of the OSD touch buttons worked properly. The monitor received a signal via display port for about...
