I need a good Monitor Any opinions

[L1qu1d]

I want to know What's the biggest monitor I can get that will have a resolution of 1600 and less:S I want to stay away from 1080p resolution because of the Frame rates decrease.

Why does it matter? It's not like you have to run at high resolution just because you use a big monitor.

yeah but with a big monitor if I run low res everything washes out, I hate that so much! hahaha

[L1qu1d]

Lol, you should send me the TV.

Few people use large monitors and don't want high resolution, so first hand recommendations for this would probably be rare. Look through the list. It's gonna cost ya.

god damn it I hate this. lol why is it such a pain to buy a monitor

Most monitors that size will be high resolution. Your system should be able to handle 1920x1200 no problem. With the specs I have below I get by pretty well.

 

[L1qu1d]

hmmmm I guess your right well I'll look into it. Like dagger said, I could always lower the res or buy a second 9800 lol (wallet shakes with fear)

Your wallet should already shake with fear considering the prices of those monitors.

It means it's time to go out and take a walk.

Well, monitors that size will have super high resolutions, however, If you buy and LCD TV with DVI it may have a more reasonable resolution. It won't work that great up close, though.

 

[L1qu1d]

I feel like playing R6 Vegas 2, but I also wanna play COD4 hmmmmmmmm

Hey L1quid check out this one out if you get a chance.

Acer P243WAID 24IN Lcd Monitor 1920X1200 3000:1 2MS Vga DVI-D Hdmi Glossy Screen High Gloss Black

It cost less than 400$.

 

[L1qu1d]

alright deal
thnx!

 

[rockbyter]

we all have opinions. friend bought a DCL (newegg top rated), i got a viewsonic, and an envision, All driven by the same system i loaded up games and movies and things, the thing is that they all look different, not necessarily better than one another. Your own calibrated eyeball is the answer. Go to the local electronics store and take note of what display looks nicest to you, match that to the resolution you want, and least latency.

DVI is the way to go, for clarity, the rest is in the air to choose a specific model.

Check that one out,:

response time: 8ms
res:1366 x 768
Contrast:1200:1 (static on screen, not dynamic like samsung and LG etc that boast 5000:1 and turn out at 800:1 or 1000:1 actual contrast)
Viewing angle: 178 degrees
Size: 26"

All in all very decent at around:
€500,- // $789.149 // £399.724
