    Samsung S27A750D 120Hz

    LOL, this thing lasted 6 months before Samsung threw in the towel?? That does not bode well for the state of 120hz monitors when one of the 3 major manufacturer's discontinues its latest model WELL less than a year into production? Fack...

    What's a good mouse nowadays?

    Microsoft Explorer Intellimouse 3.0, FTW. Of course, like any peripheral, it all comes down to personal preference. However, for FPS, fata1ity drops some truth on the n00bs: First thing to look at; what mouse are you using? I'm using Microsoft 1.1 SE and/or Microsoft 3.0... I used my...

    Steelseries qck?

    After using a steelseries qck, I'm much more impressed by the brand NE carries, xtrac. I use an ms explorer 3.0, the essential FPS mouse.

    Ebay vs AccurateIT for CRTs?

    I definitely would not assume they're *really* flat or capable of high resolutions.

    Ebay vs AccurateIT for CRTs?

    Yes, good points name. Ask about its history for sure. If it was used in a business setting try to find out what kind--engineering is a no-no...a monitor that sits on the same image forever.... :( Trying it before buying it goes without saying...never purchase a 2 square foot 50lb book end...

    Ebay vs AccurateIT for CRTs?

    Well, if its worth 100 salamies, go for it. I read somewhere on here that diamond pro is a trinitron slightly tweaked somehow (maybe 1 tube for the color gamut vs sony's 3 for RGB?). Some people will tell you mine, a dell ultrascan p1110, is unreliable or this and that but it's totally gnarly...

    Ebay vs AccurateIT for CRTs?

    Sry, meant 10 bills, = $1000. Still learning pimpspeak. Ain't that shizzle still only 60hz, unrizzle?

    Ebay vs AccurateIT for CRTs?

    I was merely pointing out that the watts were comparable. I'm aware new/most lcd's are very efficient, some going down to the 20's. Size is irrelevant when the focus of the argument is performance. I have a corner desk...with an LCD a huge portion of desk was just collecting dust. Now I at...

    Asus VG236H 120hz 3D Monitor Review

    NCX- how/where can I find the english prad review of the xl2420t? I can't read German and when I use their site's search tool, the review is nowhere to be found...

    Ebay vs AccurateIT for CRTs?

    Yea, so I replied without reading the rest of the posts. I just bought a dell trinitron (sony) 21" for $40 off of CL. Use search tempest or some other CL search if nothing comes up in your default location. Fortunately for me, I live a densely populated area (between philly/nyc) so there are...

    Ebay vs AccurateIT for CRTs?

    LOL...what game ISN'T competition? Yes, for fun, thus friendly competition. Most people don't play FPS to get rolled, even casually. And after shelling out $300 for the latest video card, how does that make them feel when they're stuck at 60hz/fps with video lag twice as slow as their...

    Thinkpad T42p battery replacement recommendation

    I found one off of Amazon that got favorable reviews: http://www.amazon.com/Anker-Battery-ThinkPad-08K8193-92P1011/dp/B00434PJ6Y/ref=sr_1_sc_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1330190887&sr=8-1-spell Apparently this company truly honors their warranty and reviewers state it holds a charge for up to 3 hours! I...

    Bout to pull the trigger- BenQ XL2420T

    Kind of shocked at how few people have continued to comment on this monitor...imo it warrants quite a lot of hype as a potential new standard for 120hz screens. bump for more reviews?

    120Hz TN Panel For 2D Gaming

    benq uses scaling as well as aspect ratio and can support pretty much any resolution you want, as well as "replicating" the environment on whatever size monitor with 120hz. IE: you can have it mimic 800x600 on a 17" or 19" monitor. Some others support 120hz on all other resolutions but do not...

    120Hz TN Panel For 2D Gaming

    120Hz TN Panel For 2D Gaming

    Couple notes on the Planar. I do not own one, but if you read the newegg reviews and use the search feature to find the hardforum thread, their customer service is quite good for a "consumer" grade monitor. Three year warranty rather than the usual shady 1 year that most companies will replace...

    Thinkpad T42p battery replacement recommendation

    Self-explanatory title. I've got an old Thinkpad workhorse that I would very much like to revive with a fresh load of ubuntu, however, what's the fun with a ball if its on a chain? I purchased a replacement off of NE for my girlfriends' and it lasted maybe 6 months at around an hour charge...

    Hey, I read through the xl2420t thread and noticed you said you had purchased it. Are you in the states? If I order through BenQ's website, will they ship it? Thought it wasn't released yet...just wondering :D

    HP ZR24w

    So about 10 pages ago I reported I got mine and it was totally messed. After talking to HP, they stated they'd send a tech out (?!) to replace it. The rep explained that business-class monitors 24" and larger have in-person tech service. Sweet. Maybe it's the cute rep I ordered from on the...

    HP ZR24w

    FYI- you need to speak with tech support for an RMA. Unfortunately I never made it that far as after getting bounced around with their non-business tech, the second I connect to an American, I lost signal.

    HP ZR24w

    Busted. It showed up fine but the monitor is defective/broken. The most uniform aspect: how consistently spread out the flickering vertical colored lines are across the whole monitor. I haven't called HP yet. I tried both VGA and DVI using my HD3650 as well as on-board. This screen showed...

    HP ZR24w

    Mine's arriving today! I'll post my thoughts because I lack the technical prowess to write a review. Someone earlier mentioned that input lag from IPS is from long ago and that recent technology (h2-ips?) has compensated for this. It's rated at 5ms...only 3ms shy of the 25.5" ASUS. What...

    HP ZR24w

    I think it said the "head" was 6lbs without stand...could that really be possible? Mine's arriving Monday :]. Can't wait to set it up next to my Dell 1504fp! And I'm not sure of their pixel policy. Earlier in this thread someone stated they spoke to an HP rep that stated that these were NOT...

    HP ZR24w

    I don't know, but considering it's being shipped out for free, I don't mind paying a total of $15 if things don't work out. I would've ordered from CC if I didn't live in PA :\ Having never owned a "full hd" screen before, do I now need to purchase a blu-ray player if I have ISO's of blu-ray...

    HP ZR24w

    Just ordered one from hp, $450.50 shipped (only had to pay tax). I've been lurking on this forum since I discovered the monitor through accidental discovery via researching the Acer 25.5" reviews on here on Google. Been sleeping on this for the past 6 weeks because of the awesome IPS vs TN...
