    Cat 8.9's?

    Still using 8.6 drivers with my 4850. Also using ATI tray tool to overclock 725/1125 and it is rock solid stable 24/7. I have Crysis, Cyrsis warhead, COD4, and Stalker Clear Sky all running perfectly. And still using XP service pack 2. Service pack 3 does nothing to enhance performance with...

    Samsung 226BW 22": 3000:1 Contrast, 2ms response time

    When I'm in 1920x1200, my whole desktop doesn't actually fit on the screen. I have to move my mouse over to the sides, and my desktop moves about an inch and then stops. I haven't tried it in a game yet, but I can say that there is no fuzziness at all. It looks just as good as 1680x1050.

    Samsung 226BW 22": 3000:1 Contrast, 2ms response time

    I loved my A panel, but I have to admit, my new S panel is definitely superior to my A panel. I used the icc profile associated with my 8800gts to calibrate my A panel and I got it to look good. I had 2 days left to exchange this thru CC, and I went ahead and rolled the dice and exchanged it...

    S.T.A.L.K.E.R. (Release Version) Performance Issues

    I've got an amd 4000+ San Diego @3000 and an evga 8800 gts superclocked @ 650/975. I'm running this game @ 1680x1050 with everything maxed out, including dynamic lighting, and I'm averaging 60-80fps. My only problem is my flashlight won't work. I've tried everything except using another form...

    Samsung 226BW 22": 3000:1 Contrast, 2ms response time

    Does anyone know if there's a DVI cable that you can buy that would be of better noticeable quality than the one that comes with this monitor? And if so, what is it, and where can I get it?

    I've tried to use L and even re-assigned it and it still doesn't work. I've read other people are having this problem too, but there is no fix for it yet.

    Samsung 226BW 22": 3000:1 Contrast, 2ms response time

    In Fear, I have AF set to 16X and AA set to 4X, which is the most this game will allow. I'm still getting massive tearing in this game! If I enable V-sync, my framerates suffer horribly. Is there anyone else experiencing tearing with this monitor? Are LCD's just prone to this?

    Samsung 226BW 22": 3000:1 Contrast, 2ms response time

    After one week, I have this monitor looking fantastic. The only thing I notice is in playing Fear, I get alot of screen tearing. Much more so that my CRT ever did. I hate using V-sync because it chops my framerates in half. Anybody else having this issue?

    Pictures look fantastic on my A panel using Bightness-45 and contrast-75. Keep in mind, this is a $300 TN panel.

    Samsung 226BW 22": 3000:1 Contrast, 2ms response time

    Are there any dvd optical drives out there that can take full advantage of this monitor's resolution? If I were to buy a separate dvd player for this monitor, I still wouldn't be able to get audio. I want to be able to watch 720p movies on this thing with audio!

    Samsung 226BW 22": 3000:1 Contrast, 2ms response time

    Maybe one of you guys can help me with getting the right settings for internet viewing. I'm so used to my 21" Trinitron. As of right now, it's still too bright, and it gives me a headache. And also, is there another way to make text a litlle easier on the eyes? I've already applied clear...

    Samsung 226BW 22": 3000:1 Contrast, 2ms response time

    using the nvidia control panel, I used the calibration tool to adjust my monitor. I also backed off the contrast to 44 in the control panel as well. Then, I set the monitor to brightness-40 and contrast to 75. This gave me much better results than the spyder configuration. Fear, Oblivion...

    Samsung 226BW 22": 3000:1 Contrast, 2ms response time

    I bought my 226bw A panel from CC Sunday, and I'm trying hard to make this thing look bad, and I can't. I'm coming from a 21" IBM P260 Trinitron, which is still kick ass, but this lcd is just awesome! Very minimal bleeding, no banding. I'm also using an 8800 GTS via DVI. One thing I noticed...
