Sweet! Can you post some more benchies, pls?

Hmmm, but why would that be? If you're displaying straight text without any smoothing/truetype enforced, then surely the feathering would be absent from both pics. EDIT: also, they show the same peculiarity as in the pics you posted prior. Where the lower part of the 'E' is 2-pixels high in the...

Cheers Neb!

Interesting. Check the tops of the letters. Whereas they are exactly one pixel tall in the bottom, 'native' image, they are not quite 2 pixels tall in the top, upscaled image (the black looks smudged). No idea why the monitor would do this though. There's definitely nothing in its settings to...

Cheers Andrew. There's some strange scaling going on there. It looks as if the straight lines in the top image are slightly smudged. Check out the top left hand corner of the 'R' on resolution. It appears to be a right-angle on the lower (1:1) image, but it's not so clear cut in the top one.

I'm leaning towards the A01 U2410 with this in mind, as there's no way I'm going to be able to run new PC games smoothly at the U2711's native res (even with my 4870x2). Now if the U2711 was able to present a 1280x720 image cleanly (i.e. not blurred), then that would be something else.

You'd think so, but not according to this one bloke at Overclockers UK ('garsands'), where he uses Dirt 2 as an example:- Link: http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18098931&page=9

How does your desktop look presented at 1280x720? Is it very blurred?

Has anyone with this screen tested it at the half native resolution of 1280x720? I'm very interested in how this will look, as presumably one pixel will be interpolated to exactly four, leaving a very clean looking image (pretty exactly the same as if you had a native 27" 1280x720 screen). This...

It looks like edge enhancement/sharpening.

Yep, can confirm the same problem with an 8800GTX here :mad:

Argh, in the UK, this screen's release has now be delayed yet again until November 2006. What the 'frack' is that about??! :eek:

Those pics above look pretty damn good. Is that a 1080i cable broadcast over HDMI? I for one am really not bothered by the slight stretching, but am really looking forward to owning a 1080P HDCP compatible screen (should be nice once the PS3 is released). I did have a Dell 2407WFP A03 but got...

It's not really that hard to believe :rolleyes: Basically, there were two of us installing it. I applied the AS5, then held all the cables out of the way, whilst my brother took the HSF out of its packaging and fitted it. I didn't stop him to question whether it had thermal paste on it in the...
