    Dell 2405 FPW - Garbage for gaming ?

    From my experience with 2405FPW so far, screen tearing is apparent only if your graphics card is not powerful enough or you don't turn vsync on. That's the reason why you feel better when you switch to your 21" viewsonic (which resolution requires much less GPU and CPU power for games) For 3D...

    2405FPW PinP question

    Seems that I can't do D-Sub p-in-p DVI, and the other way round? I can only get the dvi mode to p-in-p the components / svideo but not dsub.

    Discovery: Checking your 2405FPW version

    People complained about having problem with Xbox360 connected via component and wondered whether there are different versions of the Dell 24". There are indeed different versions and you can check it out as follows. There are six buttons on your 2405FPW. For convenience's sake I will number...

    I wouldn't worry too much about HDCP

    Some passthrough things will eventually come out (or has it come out already?). Protections are meant to be cracked.

    Recommend a DVD player to go with the 2405?

    At this transition between two eras it would not be too wise to buy a DVD player. Wait for a Blue Ray / HD-DVD player or the PS3 if I were you.

    2405FPW has no support for HD

    I got my PGR3 today and tried on Dell 24". Hell it was crap. I am quite sure the source is 480p and then get upscaled by the xbox360 then output as 1080i, just by judging from my eye. The thing is, if the source is at low res, the higher res you upscale that low res source into, the more jaggies...

    2405FPW has no support for HD

    Will try to shoot some pics tomorrow (it's 2a.m. here now) for the difference between 1080i and 480p with my crappy DC (max 1600X1200) but I am sure even with that crap DC everyone with eyes open will be able to tell the difference. If the theory that the signal is down-converted to 480p and...

    2405FPW has no support for HD

    First off, if it doesn't support HD, nothing will come up on 1080i at all, just like when you connect a progressive 100Hz tv with component input but without HD support. That alone defeats the statement "2405FPW has no support for HD". Second, "don't display HD over component properly"...

    http://www.tasmanav.com.au/pages/DigitalProducts.html It's the one on the right, and it's not square.

    2405FPW has no support for HD

    oh boy you clearly still doesn't get what I mean especially re jaggies. Jaggies and HD support are completely different issues. If you prefer your "discussion" here and looking at those crap pictures (no offence) rather than go out there and check it out with your eyes, fine. The one who is...

    2405FPW has no support for HD

    The jaggy thing is game dependent. I am using a Japanese version Xbox360 so I don't have the chance to try PGR3 until next week. I don't know if DOA4 is out in the states yet, but if it is, go get a copy and hook it up on component and that settles everything. Also if you are not blind you...

    2405FPW has no support for HD

    I don't know much about all these chip things, but if you have an XBOX360, just hook it up with component of 2405FPW, and then switch between 480p 720p and 1080i, with the "aspect" option so you can compare them at the same size without distorting the image. You don't even need to actually play...

    BEST 23 or 24' LCD FOR PROFFESIONALS

    Don't buy Apple 23" unless you are using a Mac coz you won't be able to tune it whatsoever

    2405FPW has no support for HD

    The thing is if the Dell 24" does not support 1080i through component, nothing will come up at all if it encounters a 1080i signal input. Irrespective of the source Xbox360 is using and whatever scaling method it uses internally, its output, when set at 1080i, is 1080i. If a display does not...
