My new monitor

Post by Pauly »

Being delivered tomorrow. Pretty good for the money.

£244 from Overclockers, including delivery. Not too bad.

Fast 4 ms panel but a small viewing angle like all TN panels. 1280x1024 is still standard for 19" tft's, sadly (while they put ~1700x1100 in laptops).

MVA-overdrive panels are the best choice, if you have the money.

Dot pitch 0.29mm


nuff said. cancel your order now and get something that doesn't suck.
as for the 4ms thing, they skew their definition of what response means so they can claim 4ms when it is probably nothing close ot that.

I got that model when Q4 came out and so far it's been an excellent monitor :icon14:

Edit: Contrary to Magnetichead's post, there is no blur or ghosting (I just used this monitor for a LAN last weekend).

As for MidnightQ4, well he's a fucking moron as usual and doesn't seem to realize that a .29 dot pitch on an LCD is pretty normal (Samsung only offers one 19" model with a slightly higher dot pitch, all the rest are .29).

Sweet....

You'll love it. Especially at that price and the 4ms will look great for gaming.

If average is good enough for you then by all means...

Stop talking out of your ass and check the specs of the gaming lines by Sony, Acer, Viewsonic, LG, and AOC. They ALL use a .29 dot pitch on their 19" LCDs. That said, I guess that we shouldn't be expecting intelligent replies from a guy who has to give his gf coke in order to get laid :icon26:
