QUOTE(arj @ May 4 2006, 03:50 PM) Found a buyer for the FX and X2, the 6800 Ultras is still up for grabs  You'll be using it with an X1900XTX right? Do let us know how it handles games at max settings. I've been reading people saying that even a dual 7800GTX can't handle the monitor  Hmmm... well, I've just tested oblivion on it. Max settings with HDR is OK so far, no noticeable lag (yet). Max settings with max AA is not playable though. Looks like even x1900xtx can't tame this beast  (I mean beast=Oblivion, not the monitor... it's bloody perfect!!!!) Thanking my lucky stars, no noticeable dead pixels. [edit] Had to put a pic up... i'm so happy. This post has been edited by shreaker: May 7 2006, 10:07 PM

Apparently the game is really resource hungry. Will update as soon as I get the rams in! and silencer... the game is totally awesome. with 2405fpw i'm running at 1900x1200 so it's no surprise if there's some slowdown...

^ y composite to the X360, y not component or VGA..? You dont need a external box as the monitor can switch display internaly with a video selector on the bezel rite..? DVI - Cpu VGA or Component - X360

ya... like shumaky said, why don't u use the DVI with the PC and the component input with the xbox360 anyway? Since the monitor has component input ready.

^ Test both is the better choice, but I dont think he wanna spend $$ on both ori cable's just to test. Maybe someone with the cables could pinjam him, I'm on 3rd party vga.
