    two different XL2370s models ...what's up with this?

    I got my Samsung XL2370 for Christmas and love it. I've only ever used Tns but this is great for me as a pretty heavy gamer. Just yesterday a friend of mine got one after hearing me rave about it for weeks and theirs has the model XL2370-1 on the box instead of plain XL2370. I looked up on...

    XL2370 flawless!

    Hey everyone, after waiting a long time I got the Samsung XL2370 for my Christmas present. I have to say compared to the previous tn panels I've owned this display is perfect. 100% uniformity, no backlight bleed at all, vibrant colors and deep blacks, the only real downside is of course the...

    23 23.6 and 24 all same resolution. which is better? confused D:

    I am desperately trying to pull the trigger on a new lcd. I don't have a lot lot of money so I'll probably be getting one of the inexpensive Asus screens as this will primarily be used for gaming. One thing that is making my decision more difficult is there are 3 sizes 23, 23.6, and 24 that...

    which of these for gaming web use and possibly movies - all so similar

    I'm in the market for a new lcd after being without one for a couple of years. I sort of gave up looking after going through the great Samsung panel fiasco with the 226BW and later models. From what I've been reading as far as TN panels go even the real inexpensive ones are pretty decent as...

    I am selling my beloved A-Data Extreme Edition Ram and moving to a 4 GB (2 X 2GB) set of the same thing and Vista 64. This is one of the fastest DDR2 800 sets available. They are at least equal to Crucial Ballistix (or faster) without the high failure rate. This will be a great buy for...

    install monitor driver?

    Is there any point to installing the lcd monitor driver if all your resolutions are being detected correctly anyway? I know sometimes they are bundled with color profiles but I prefer the default Vista profile for that.

    5000 BE or 6400+ BE for AM2 upgrade

    What would be the better choice for a friend's who wants to upgrade his am2 pc from a low end Athlon X2? Obviously the 6400 is way faster stock but the 5000 is pretty much garuanteed to oc to at least 3 ghz. I don't think the difference in price matters to him more just which is the smarter...

    Warm: AMD X2 6400+ BE 159.99 w/free shipping

    Looks like they lowered the price of the 6400+ Black Edition to account for the new 6400+ Retail ed which includes a heatsink and fan. That means you can buy the Black Edition and add a $30 fan better than the one that comes with the retail versoin and they would come out to the same price...

    good board to go w/6400+ until phenom is worth it

    I'm thinking about getting a 6400+ or maybe the 6000+ since it includes a cooler and want to buy it with a board that will work good with Phenom once better models come out next year. Are there any boards currently out that are safe bets? I don't see too many around.

    anyone with luck fixing a stuck pixel?

    I'm wondering whether to bother trying to fix this stuck pixel on my 206bw. It's not that annoying but pretty easily visible on a white background. It seems to be stuck on the color red but it doesn't show on black so I guess it could be dead but not sure why it looks red on white then...

    the treating LCDs nicely discussion

    What is better for keeping your new LCD in tip top shape? Leaving it on unless you are going to be afk for more than a 2 - 3 hours OR turning it off whenever not really in use? Also, is it bad to turn the display on for just a few seconds to check something then back off before it has warmed...
