    AG Coating Paranoia - The Official Thread

    I don't like the sparkle/grain that heavy AG brings. I have a glossy monitor, as well as a monitor with heavy AG, and prefer to deal with reflections. There aren't a lot of good (or affordable) glossy monitors on the market so the level of AG coating a monitor has is important to me...

    Should I buy an Apple Cinema Display for $300?

    Check it out in person if you can. $300 sounds like it has some serious problem(s)

    The 20WMGX2's have arrived.

    /tinybitjealous I only have one but I love it. I am longing for more real estate sans bezels though. If it was 1920x1200 it would be perfect for me.

    Apple 27" LED Cinema Display

    My XFX 6950 flashed to Sapphire 6970 had no problems running the Cinema Display I tested out (including bios post) so I don't expect you'll have any problems. I didn't test the webcam on the CD but the mic was poor quality compared to what I have ($10 from Walmart). It picked up a lot of...

    24 inch IPS or 27 inch TN?

    Good choice going with the IPS Don't mind NCX - lots of people love their U2410

    HELP ME - Test your monitor for me !

    The fuzziness in both pictures looks like the result of jpg compression. Top is level 12 (high quality, largest file size), then 6, 3, and 0 (worst quality, lowest file size). If you save the pic and zoom in you can really see how compression affects the image quality.

    Vertical line on U2311H

    Definitely sounds like it. Vertical lines of pixels being dead/stuck is a pretty common problem, as far as problems go. Call Dell and get the ball rolling on an RMA.

    Poll. Do you prefer a glossy screen or an AG coated screen?

    I don't mind matte with a very light anti-glare coating, but I prefer glossy. I have a glossy display now and I really notice the graininess that AG brings since I've gotten used to it not being there. Colors also seem to really pop on the glossy while still looking natural. My room is dimly...

    ASUS PA246Q: 24-inch, 1920x1200, IPS

    I was just joining in on the speculation about which panel, if not a unique one, is used in the display. I should have been clearer in my post.

    Seeking a high resultion monitor for gaming+programming

    I can't speak for the Dell (although it uses the same IPS panel from LG) but I was able to demo the 27" Apple and sitting close to it resulted in pretty severe "IPS glow" in the corners, even when my head was dead center and the monitor was tilted to be perpendicular to my vision. The glow was...

    TFT Central review posted: http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/reviews/dell_st2220t.htm Anyone else pick up this monitor and have anything to say about it? Looks like most of the complaints from the reviews on the Dell website are about the touch screen, which I don't really care about. A glossy IPS...

    Monitor dying? Haven't seen this

    Hello all I've had my NEC 20WMGX2 for nearly 5 years, and about a month ago I noticed a washed-out distortion creeping inward from the left side of my screen. It's indistinguishable on a white or black background, but blues and purples seem to make it really stand out. It becomes much more...

    maybe if you have 20/40 vision.... Anyone with decent eyes will be able to discern between ~900,000 and ~2,000,000 pixels on a 65" screen, even from 12 feet away.
