For me at least I can see the difference between CRT and LCD monitor is enough for me.
And you don't bother taking into account the response time? Smart.
For those who said 8ms response time, your eyes can't see. I can make you see with your own eye
Go play Gears of War split screen. Multiplayer the best. Try do roadie run at the same time.
I went to yhanlee there with his 5ms LCD monitor, the 1 who run last, will suffer the frame rate drops which you can see very clearly. ( not sure correct term ) Just say, 1 will feel lagg.
Mine 2ms, I tried both roadie run, both run smoothly.
So far only Gears of War.

after much discussion with my parents and me and on HDTV, LCD display and "why-dont-you-just-used-your-old-display"... I finally have ordered it.
27" Dell 2707WFP 1920x1200 display.
The guys at Gamers Hideout themselves said to me, I can
get even a 32" HDTV lesser price than the Dell display. But I stressed them that
full HD capable HDTVs are much more expensive than the Dell display.
And they agreed. The thing is they said, the Dell display does not have HDMI and its 27".
My point is, this is what I want : Full HD at 27"
This is what "most of you are recommending me" : Non Full HD HDTVs at 32" or larger [which I do understand is much cheaper compared last time]
This is the problem : Full HD HDTVs are "still relatively expensive", they're like what RM3,500 + ?? This is what I think the solution is : Even though 27" vs 32" is like 5 huge freakin inches of difference, I get full HD at a
With price in mind (and
quality fortunately in my case), the Dell fits me perfectly. I was told the upcoming 30" Dell 2560x1600 (with HDMI) would cost me around RM4,500 to RM5,000+. That's ridiculous.
The fact that I "do have" full HD and its large at 27" AND it fits the bill at RM2,999, it would be my pick.
Keep those feedback coming, I am told my order can still be "put on hold" on Monday.
Help.
ps : I have never seen a HDTV, never compared LCD vs. HDTV, but I know 100% how it feels to have 1920x1080 resolution on a LCD PC display.
HDTV is either LCD or Plasma tv. There is also CRT type but is rare to find here in Malaysia ( maybe you guys know where )
You want a full HD? Let me ask you this
What is your distance between you and your screen? If you are too near to your big screen LCD, you can see the pixel of the display.
For a game you want a full HD? LOL.
If you want a pure full HD, get a 40" + LCD tv with full hd and your console support HDMI. You put that in and see from far.
But still the HD still depends on the game. Game crappy, your display crappy.

I was planning on using my 19" LCD for my older PC while the 27" for the Xbox 360
AND Windows Vista. I was told I could like "switch" between the two of them??
The reason I'm going for the Elite is for the 120Gb hard drive and the less chance of getting 3ROD. And on top of that, for future purposes...
Does DVI really make a difference to HDMI ?Go and do some research.
DVI A-D VS HDMI. There is DVI-A,B, C and D ( correct me if I'm wrong )
DVI-a is same as your VGA cable. Therefore DVI-D is better then VGA cable but lose to HDMI.
HDMI is the best because all the input > output are uncompressed thats why they produce a fine picture.
Like we all said, if you want gaming for LCD monitor, best is go either 22" or 24" for cheapest.
And since you have so much money, you might as well get a LCD tv with 32" higher. Whats the point buying 27" monitor which cost close to 3k when you can get better inch and more output to it?
And the HD graphic still depends on the game itself.
