You bought a realitvely low resolution LCD TV (1300+ x 768?) although capable of cpu vga inputs as your monitor?

Can't agree with that call...

IMO, you should have gotten at least a 24" widescreen with 1920x1200 res capabilities....

I ordered that same case. It should be here this week.

I also got the optional side panal with a window in it. That part is here.

It's only $25

Im thinking of getting it custom laser cutted... Also about the monitor... I wont use high resolution in game nor desktop... Rather low with full eye candy... I cant stand high resolutions as i cant concentrate on it... But the size of the monitor will make up the low resolution?

And what else monitor are you suggesting with the same stats, but higher resolution with same price card of 1500 eur??

 

[angry_ducky]

A big monitor with low resolution will produce a crappy picture. Basically, the pixels are spread out more.

 

[unreal_nl]

Ehm k... So are there any 30 - 37" lcd-monitor/tv's with that resolution and same stats avg... i cant find anything on the web....

I have seen the LG 32LB1R It 32" same res. But a better contrast (1600:1), HD ready (Dont know if the 320p is too?) It doesnt have a vga but does have HDMI... So with a dvi->HDMI cable.. And a build in tuner... Wich the 320p doesnt have (atleast not on the site im looing at maybe the forgot or something)

Getting 2x250gb drives is half the price of 1 500gb drive.
Just a suggestion to save a little if needed.

 

[unreal_nl]

Nice or 4x 250 gb for the price of 1x500gb :twisted:

 

[sleepdeprived82]

or that I guess, I cant even use a 160gb up

 

[unreal_nl]

ehm i store many things like tv-shows, music etc.. on my pc... Also templates and other things i design need to be stored... etc...

Also my dad has only 5-10gb in his pc... If he pays enough i might let him use some space then :twisted:

 

[unreal_nl]

So ehm can anyone help me on the monitor??? around same size, higher res, same things etc..

 

[angry_ducky]

You'd make your own dad pay to store stuff on your hard drive? If you were my son, I'd take you out back and beat you with a cane (assuming you weren't bigger than me). How about you just buy him a bigger hard drive? Or a new computer.

 

[unreal_nl]

That was a joke nah he haves enough with that he just browses the internet and read e-mail

 

[GherkinPekul]

Your system is very close to what I'm going to build ( I'm cheaping on the video for now). I can't wait to hear about overclocking on your motherboard.

 

[unreal_nl]

Guess the NL in my name?

Well replaced the HD with:
2x Seagate Barracuda 7200.8 (Bulk , ST3300831AS, NCQ)
combine power = 600gb

 

[unreal_nl]

No you dont! Why? Your dutch too?

 

[unreal_nl]

Muwhahahha... Now lets get on topic...

This is real similar to my setup but you should know that there is no crossfire edition yet for the 1900xtx so when you pair it with the 1900 crossfire edition, it runs @ 1900xt speed (slower than it can). so you'd be waisting quid. you should get the 1900xt or wait for the 1900xtx crossfire edition to come out(if it ever does).
