I ordered a BenQ E2400HD it came today. So far it seems rubbish. I have got it next to a Dell SP2008 and that seems much better. :confused: Could someone please tell me if any settings will make it better?
 
Can you tell us what happens when you feed different resolutions into the game from games etc.

Does it have 1:1 pixel mapping?
 
I have got the Dell S2409 as well, then is much better. It's the clours, they are not deep enought they are to grey and washed out.
 
I have got both of them set up with the same thing on both. The Dell is better so far. The BenQ's colours are rubbish. I have tried to change the settings but it is still the same. The only think to make them a bit deeper is to change mode to another one. But all the other modes are make the text really blurry.
 
Put it on standard mode. Set the sharpness to 4, Brightness to 40, Contrast, 35. Then use Nvidia's Control Panel to tweak it a little more. Something like this.



I just did this on a friends machine with a E2400HD since he had me fixing his system anyway. It looked like absolute shit before and now it looks very nice. I almost told him to send it back before I actually tweaked. It's great now though. Just trying to help .:D

Thank's, I tried it but it looked to dark and like bright colours.
 
I was playing Crysis at the start it looked crap but then when I loaded the game and was in the level, the BenQ looked just as good as the Dell. I have now swaped the cables around from the graphics card and now the BenQ is like the Dell was and the Dell is like the BenQ was. :confused:

Im going to put them on their own and see what happens.

Does anyone know why this is?
 
Here are some pictures of Transformers (DVD). They both are very good. The Dell might have a bit better colour and blacks. On the pictures the BenQ to the right end of the screen the colour may seem washed out but that is because sunlight was on the BenQ.

The BenQ is on the right and the Dell is on the left.

Glad to hear the monitor is alright.

Can I ask again what happens if you input a resolution of 1650x1080 or 1280x1024.

Because for games, I want to know if I can cut down my FOV to improve frames. If it maps 1:1 for 1280x1024, it's a no brainer to upgrade my 19"

If you have to run games at 1900x1024 to get 1:1 pixel mapping, then I'd need a new graphics card too.

What do you mean?
