Hmm.. Just bek from PC faire, now i decided to give up LG and go for Samsung 740BF or 940BW.

Samsung 740BF 17" RM765
Free logitech opt mouse n keyboard

Samsung 940BW 19" RM810
Free logitech keyboard

However i dont know which 1 i shld go for... Please advice

i'd advise you to take RM 800 and look around in Garage Sale for some good deals on 19" monitors. or heck just do it at shops.

i don't see why you should go for 2MS LCDs when 8MS works just fine.

but the contrast ratio of 19" is only 500:1 ler... and 17" is 700:1 wor..
I'm so confusing ler
*
then go find a 19" monitor that suits your contrast ratio lor. what i mean is that i'd rather use the same $$$$ to get a 19" instead of 17", regardless of how low is the MS for that 17".

now i'm thinking whether i should get DELL 30" or just normal LCD TV like Philips or Sharp (yes, the type you see at HSL).

the DELL has higher resolution, coming at more than 2k pixels for width alone while the normal LCD TVs come at slightly less than 1.4k pixels.

i don't see the purpose of 2MS smile.gif even 8MS is more than enough. heck my 2007WFP also 16MS . smile.gif

Well, the TV integrates well into all places, where as the DELL odd resoultion is going to give u headaches. Unless u strictly use the screen for PC use only, which i highly doubt. Most people would prolly look to maximise a 4k gadget, and yah dun forget the dual HDMI too.

hehe. too wide resolution. tiring for my mouse to travel tongue.gif

need help.

normally my DELL 2007WFP will display the POST screen and all the other stuff, but after a recent reboot it doesn't show anymore.

how do i get this screen back? it happened before but i can't remember how i solved it.

n00bie to widescreen......... sad.gif

anyway, it just doesn't show on the dell. i can redirect the DVI output to my Samsung 151S (DVI > VGA) and it shows fine.

actually most game now is widescreen compatable already

yeah. the past 3 games i review, all support 1680x1050.

they were
C&C3:Tiberium Wars
Supreme Commander
Test Drive Unlimited.

i did not try NFS:Carbon for that resolution. strange LOL the game was so bad i didn't even bother to test it out. i think i will later.
