No shit, I'm aware it's pretty obvious to most everyone, but I was giving context to my question.Freakaloin wrote:mjrpes...MASTER OF THE OBVIOUS!!!...mjrpes wrote:
One thing I notice when I moved over to LCD is that it doesn't have the smooth as butter feel in FP shooters that CRT has.
nah, no such things for anything other then a screen with a tv tunerTheRealZimbabwe wrote:dmmh wrote:you can just order them, no worriesTheRealZimbabwe wrote:why the hell do they limit that to the US only? I'm in Denmark, and on their danish site they're almost twice the price. Damn. Would it be possible to order it anyway, or wouldn't it work because of PAL/NTSC standards?
in the Netherlands there is no customs duties nor taxes to be paid for importing computer equiptment
if it would have a tv tuner you would have to pay those, but since there isnt....
check your customs service for details, it is waaaaaaay cheaper importing one then buying one 'locally'
I was also thinking about the PAL/NTSC problem, wouldn't it be difficult to fix? Or is it different with computer screens? Ahh confused...!
rigtig godt. I'm learning slowlyTheRealZimbabwe wrote:

I usually just play halo 2 through Component (well now I do) other than that I am working :/ I have to s-t-r-e-a-c-h them, but mosty I run a black screen at home because I work in the dark.AmIdYfReAk wrote:Welcome to the Club GH
p.s. GL Finding Native Sized backgrounds :/
I work in a 90% Dell environment, it's easy for me to see things before I buy them and try it out. Also if anything is wrong with it, even 1 dead pixel we get priority next day replacement for 3 years. Can't beat it...plained wrote:hehe your dell addicted GH
nice chunks of kit there tho
Yup it rotates to landscape 1680 x 1050 (16:10) I am just trying to mess with it. I find I am not even using the second monitor at all :/Transient wrote:What's the aspect ratio of that screen on the left? I presume it can be rotated on the base to be landscape. It's pretty slick. :icon14:

It's smooth as butter when using the component inputs and playing Halo2 from the original xbox. I did adjust some settings to hide the spanning from 420i, I jacked the sharpness all the way down, it cleaned up the lines and edges.mjrpes wrote:G}{, feel free to answer my question if you didn't see it the first time.

It's a very sweet monitor GH, I almost bought it with my dell discount but the wife shot it down, so im stuck with the 20" for now. We have a 30" that's out now as well but it's 2k$. I've seen that monitor numerous times and it is sweet. Very bright and rast responce times as well.
And yes, I work for Dell in Gold Tech
On a sidenote I will be headed to ottawa canada in the near future to train new employees.....anybody local?

I'll help you out, if you'd like.TheRealZimbabwe wrote:When I go to the dell.com order page and try to order, it won't let me ship out of the US. So I can't get it shipped to Denmark, really. I need to have someone in America I can ship it to who will then ship to to me from there. Damn..

Um.. for 60 bucks you get 5 years..Giraffe }{unter wrote:SOAPboy wrote:Yeah. i :olo:ed at the price too.. im seriously considering a dell monitordnoyc wrote: dell sells them for $397 w/ free shipping, and theirs are pristine too :/
why would you lol at the price?
a, the sub $400.00 monitor does not carry a 3 year warrantee
b, they will be over $400 in a week or so.
c, I don't want to sell it for less
d, the longer dell keeps the price below $400 the long I will continue to use it.
then there is also the factor that most people do not know the deals and will pay through the ass for it and I kave no problem selling it to them since these are the same people who think it's Okay to call me on a sunday morning and ask me for computer help when I don't even consider them friends...
