strongbaby doesnt have stock anymore....i asked about 2-3 weeks ago...

hes supposed to lemme know when theres stock...havent received any news yet

Hmm, I see. Try ask ngbh or vCool, maybe they got lubang.

I was going to disagree with this - but I think it's a matter of priority. If you're primarily a gamer, go for the graphics card. (Though personally I've decided that I will wait for the second generation of DX10.) However if you watch movies and tv shows a lot, the monitor will be the better investment.

Also don't forget that your monitor is a much more long term investment than the graphics card. Therefore to me it's always worth it to spend more money on your monitor rather than your graphics card.

Anyone know there is chance for Samsung 225MS and BenQ F222WH sales in Malaysia? Both LCD are just release if I not mistake.

singung, any info on this 226MS? Haven't heard even a whisper of that model! I'm intrigued.

Sorry, typing mistake, it should be 225ms, here are the detail. Malaysia only can find FP222W version, but not FP222WH one.

Samsung 225MS

The 226bw is superior to that, unless I've missed something.

I saw china, hong kong or taiwan also sell that 225ms, just wonder will it sold in malaysia soon?

yeah.... if your GC can support WS resolution la... so for those already own a decent GC, then better get monitor first...

i'm still in awe of my 226BW monitor... worth every single cent paid for it.... then later only upgrade to better GC...

what for buy 8series card and then use small CRT monitor? hehe...

i would suggest buy monitor first then u will proceed to buy a GC cause it cannot support the large monitor

Yeah same thinking.. btw, since there's so many samsung 226BW user here, does it support 1:1 ratio? bcos planning to get it..

No it doesn't support 1:1 pixel mapping.

225MS is different as it has build in speakers , of course the spec is lower than 226BW =)

It doesn't support 1:1? ah what a let down .. then how about the LG 226WTQ?? any 22" inch LCD that support 1:1ratio? i don't wanna buy a wrong thing later..

Lol..I am also surprise of the same thing.Even my Dell doesnt support it..Oh Well, no choice there..

I searched in the net previously, hardly can see much LCD can support 1:1, even if there're, most of them are top of the line, which you have to spend >RM1k.

hey guys.. i just roughly go thru the previous topics, i noticed that 20' to 22' actually can't feel that is a huge diff being human sight.
but i'm wondering, they r in same max screen resolution (1680x1050), then will the 20' is looks sharper than the 22', since the 22' is bigger but with same resolution?

mathematically yes..
side by side u probably can tell the difference..

but also consider the distance where ur monitor is placed..
my opinion is get the 22"

you might not be able to see more details in 22", given the fact that their native resolution is the same.

in fact, 22" monitor will be 'blurer' than a 20" because of d the dots distance (i might not be using a technical term).

Yes it does support 1:1

"switching from 1:1 mode to native resolution and back turns off 1:1 completely. so every time i have to go back to 1:1 alt-tabing in a non-widescreen game gets tedious since i do it a lot."
