She's a purty one!

Post by XMEN Ashaman DTM »

I just got my new monitor last night. When I was playing T2, it was at the highest resolution I could get it.

My desktop resolution is set to 1680 x 1050. It's beautiful. :D


Here is what I got (it's paired with a Radeon x1900 xt):

And here are pics of my desktop:

Verra nice. Pretty low price for a monitor rated that highly, too.

It is definitely a "OMGWTFBBQ!!?!!??!?!" kind of a thing!

The only problem I had was trying to figure out what resolution to put it at. It is freakin sweet!

I'd recommend it to everyone. ;)

if I hadn't just got a new 19" LCD in February, I'd be all over it... but i love my 19" LG Flatron. That is a pretty sweet setup Asha... Enjoy it now, because once the little one comes, it's gonna be few and far betqween for those fun PC upgrades...

I have read alot of reviews on this and other Samsung LCD monitors. It appears they have a "bleed through" issue.

I have 2 19" LCD Samsung "non" widescreen and do notice a little. I have a 19" Widescreen Hanns-G and have no issues what so ever.

But it is what you can live with that counts !

I have noticed zero bleed-through on this. Not even anything at the edges.
