it could be because OSX has antialiased fonts and you have to enable this feature in XP, i too was suprised at how well the text looks when i first switched.

just to clarfy is this one of those 'new' 1920*1200 monitors that are supposed to come out or is it a TV with a 1366*768 resolution? also what experience do you have with 24" 1920*1200 monitors? i ask because i want to ask you whether you found the larger physical area to be better or worser...

the delll does not have /HDMI and i am prety sure that neither do the samsungs

i prefer speakers simnply because my headphones are a pair of shure E2C's, meaning i aam oblivious to the outside world, so if my mum calls me i won't be able to hear. however on some days when i am alone in the house i either put the woofer volume really high or use the shure :)

not that i am advocating buying a dell (i have yet to use a widescreen ultrasharp :( ) but is there any particular reason you are not consideringg the dell? it seems as though the multitude of inputs would at least be a consideration and the sheap price. also do you want a 1920*1200...

i purchased the terra tec 5.1 earth, it seems as though no-one has any obections. now all i need to know how are the drivers. i noticed on the official site that they have 64bit drivers which should come in useful if/when i upgrade to vista. so how are the 32bit drivers? are there any...

a mackbook with 1GB RAM and a 1.83GHz core duo with a CD-RW (not DVD-RW) and a 60GB cost $1200 add in $100 for an oem copy of windows media centre and it is less than $1300.

according to the technical data of the aforementioned card (http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/tech-data/B00062IARM/ref=dp_nav_0/202-1809150-9510253?ie=UTF8&n=560798&s=electronics) it has toslink input and output. does this mean i could use the toslink input to connect to the VGA cable on...

i bought a pair of AEGO M speakers based on the recommendation of other people on the forums. they come on friday, so i was wondering what sound card to get. my budget is £20 so i am not expecting mindblowin sound but good enough so that the premium i paid for the AEGO doesn't go to waste. i...

do you know of any shops that deliver to the UK? the only place i can find it on is ebay.

correct me if i am wrong but it is extremey hard to get the chaintech i recommend finding another product similar to it :)

i presume you guys are using a HDMI>DVI adapter, but how do you guys get audio, does the adapter provide a 3.5MM/RCA audio plug also. BTW i am not the original poster.

can anyone recommend a good sound card for use with the AEGO M, so far i am leaning towards the chaintec av710. also to use the speakers with my 360 do i buy an adapter the will change the left and right speaker cable on my VGA cable into a 3.5MM plug, and plug it into the 'blue' socket in my...

does anyone know how to get dell refurbished monitors in the UK? the dell outlet site for the uk only lists desktops and notebook :(

it seems that the klipsch are out of the question as i can't find a single reatiler, monarch computers ships to the UK, but i am wary of doing so. so AEGO M's the way to go?

the z-2300 are THX certified and around the same price, would you recommend getting those instead, i am quite fond of the desighn o the logitech.

i myself don't have a monitor at that resolution but i have heard that some people recommend running it at 1280*1024 and setting the 360 to widescreen as it produces a better picture than 1280*720 or 1366*768 scaled up to 1680*1050

i saw that on the uk overclockers website: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/acatalog/2_1_Speakers.html however the official site shows it with pictures of ipods and PSP's, would it still be powerful enough for Battlefield 2 and my xbox 360?

how long do you intend on keeping that pc as your main desktop, because you sould really look into getting 2*1024MB instead just to leave the other slots open for future use if you plan on using it well into the future, i don't know for sure but i'm guessing it isn't a whole lot more to upgrade...

as far as i know yes the memory will run at the lowest common denominator, i was put in the same solution a while ago also, i decided to simply buy 2GB pc2 -6400 RAM and discard the 512MB PC2-3200 ram that came with my pc

i am in the market for new speakers priced at £70-£100, so far i have concluded the the 'THX' certified klipsch promedia 2.1 to be the best buy, however i can find no UK store stocking these, the closest i can find is this from amazon...

i am thinking of getting this monito as opposed to the other 1920*1200 monitors out there as it will play nicely with my 360 and pc without having the latest and greates in graphics hardware, but the problem is it will be a fulltime PC monitor, meaning i will do desktop work on it also such as...

ohhhhh this is SWEET, one HDMI for a PS3, one VGA for a 360, one HDMI for a sky+ HD box and DVI for a PC, i will NEVER leave my room again!!!!! that being said, i could never afford all these appliances and azureus +RSS feeds and a 360 satisfy all my need on a budget. does anyone know how...

you might want to hang about the high school and ask them some questions, after all they are going to be both yor workforce and customers. questions like how much are you willing to pay, and would you actually use it regularly because a lot of people, including me, would love a shop like that...

are these sort of shops common in america? i live in london and have seen none, could someone tell me where i could find one. that said me and my freind s owuld love a place like this to frequent after school and i think that is your target market, so make sure it is near a school!!!

buy this http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B000F0ERF4/202-1809150-9510253?v=glance&n=300703&s=gateway&v=glance then take out the component cable at the back of your 360 and plug this cable in instead it uses the same connector. plug the VGA into your 2005FPW, the other two red and white...

pigpen i notice you have a FW900, what resolution and settings are you running battlefield 2 on. i ask because i aam getting a 1920*1200 monitor with a 1900XT soon, and was wondering whether i should get a single 7950 or a 1900XT. in your opinion, do you think i should stump up th extra...

this isn't my first computer, it is howeverr my first 'entheusiast' rig, which i got after i was first introduced to battlefield 2 on a freinds computer.

i feel really stupid for not saying this from the beggining but i am using a logitech wireless keyboard and mouse setup with the latest drivers. the excact name of the set is the "LX700", it is wireless if it makes any difference.

lolz i don't really care as i rarely find myself racing to press the big red cross button :) this thread is purely a learning excercise.

i already stated in the original post that i did not have this 'feature' enable, heres a pic if you don't believe me!!! http://flickr.com/photos/62451938@N00/214259227/

so does anyone know what it is i am seeing in the pics above?

isn't a 6800GT enough for BF2 at 1680*1050, i have an x600 at 1280*1024 with everything on medium and no AA and it looks ok i am sure you could put everything on high at 16*10 with no AA and get lik 25FPS.

lolz, it doesn't make any difference to me either way i just wanted to know what it is people are complaining about so in the future when i am in the market for a new lcd i will know what it is people are complaing about and how it affects me. btw, it's really hard to know when someone is...

i have a dell 1907FP, my first ever lcd, and i noticed when i move the mouse really fast i get a trail of mice following it. http://www.flickr.com/photos/62451938@N00/213886608/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/62451938@N00/213886607/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/62451938@N00/213886606/ the...

some cards have one dual link dvi port for 30"ers and one single link one, you can get a 'y' splitter for the dual link one thus giving you and extra 2 more monitors at 1920*1200 (i think) in adition to the single link one, a freind of mine does the same thing with a 7300 GS/GT??? or you...

i don't mean to be condescending but chances are that if you have to ask you are not a "hardcore" gamer so like me you should look into the e6300 and 6400 as they will be just fine for 'casual' gamers like us, also if you are coming from a pentium 4 or mid range AMD CPU's you will notice a...

i have it, it seems alright in battlefield 2, but then again i have a "modest" setup (an x600, 1GB RAM and a pentium D 920) as i am a 'casual' gamer. for surfing the web, and watching avis (;)) its alright, however this is my first ever 'gaming' rig so i don't have any way of comparing it...

wiretap, i know you are not trying to start a flame war, but let me state i don't intend to actually buy a mac pro, i am a broke 16 year old teen, i am just thinking hypothetically, also there is a configuration apple ships with 4 7300GT, i just presumed that they used some sort of sli, but now...

the mac pro hs one dual slot pci express slot and three single slot ones, so i was just wondering whether one can sli two 7900GTX, or xfire to x1900XTX, or even do quad sli with 4 7600GT/7300GT or two 7950? i know no-one has a mac pro yet, but i was wondering whether it was possible...
