You have to spend both. Using a big size monitor, you will need a good GC as well.

hehe, so meaning that no point getting a big screen with lousy GC.. so GC come 1st.. btw im thinking to get a 1950pro and samsung 226BW, or else i'll go for 8800GTS and choose a cheaper and smaller LCD.. budget just doesn't allow me to spend both..

But for me, I guess what I can afford and what I need. No need to spend so much. Get what you like.

Most LCDs made in the last 1 year should have the 1:1 aspect function. I bought my 20" wide (Dell Ultrasharp) in late-2005, and it has no problems with 1:1 gaming on software that does not support 1680x1050 resolutions.

Not quite true in the fact Dell E228WFP is also new, and it doesn't support 1:1 pixel mapping as well.

Well, Dell 22" only have one model. Its not about the product line, but not newer LCD will have 1:1 support, like Samsung 226BW for example. So best to know is to find reviews for models that interested you and see if they get to mention any support for 1:1. I find forums to be more reliable on this, most reviews only cares about the color/quality.

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.

You need to put that 24" further. My 30" is 2 feet from my keyboard.

I wish I can, but my current table isn't that big, keyboard is about 1 feet away from monitor. I guess the distance between me and monitor is less 1m apart. sweat.gif

Too many to consider, narrow down the models instead. 19"? 20"? 22"? 24"? 27"? 30"?


Added on May 24, 2007, 10:15 pmWanna ask those users with Dell widescreen LCD + 8800 cards, can you use 1:1 scaling on DVI? I can't seem to get work. The option for wide mode in my Dell's OSD are grayed out.

Yes, no problem here on 8800GTX SLI, tested on 2007WFP and 2407WFP. But on native resolution, the OSD are grayed out.

How to get it work? Let's say I want to play CS 1.6 using 800 x 600. How to set? I tried set the monitor resolution to 800x600, and ingame same resolution, but wide mode in OSD still greyed out. sad.gif

cs 1.6 support ws format ah??? i play 1.6 too... but a bit stretch...  rclxub.gif

There is WS support, but I don't like it.

I've read through forums and sites, those using 8800, using new drivers will have trouble in 1:1 pixel scaling for WS LCD. The reason behind is that even when you set the desktop resolution to a 4:3 aspect ratio, the monitor will think its still on its native resolution, eg 24" WS 1920 x 1200, that's why unable to select wide mode for my LCD. Some stated 97.XX prove to be able to work with 1:1 scaling, I'm yet to test it out. I've tested 158.22 and 160.XX, no scaling.

22" has bigger size compared with 20". Thus you can see the pixel bigger on 22".

Depends on what model you're comparing with. But for now all 22" uses TN panel. Any panel for 20" beside TN panel will be better than 22".
