saw philip lcd tv 40" fully hd around 6.9k hehehehe... so cheap these day...

2999 guess if I'm u.. i got 32" LCD 720p

btw y u wanan get 1020p?

IMO u shd save up just use ur current LCD

i didnt see any difference on the elite even using HDMI or VGA on a same screen...btw if u try getting that 27" dell, Get on PC fair..cheaper..

correct me if I'm wrong

not much game goes up to 1080p..

and halo 3 not 1080p

seriously i prefer bigger LCD TV hmmm 32"? and some good speakers

but it's ur moo man...

did u check out dell's 24" entry flat panel, that's around 1.5k, supports VGA and DVI only... i dont know whether it support 1:1 pixel mapping or not, check the website for more info lah..

im using a non-ultrasharp 20" dell monitor... and no, it doesn't kill me... can't have everything when ur on a budget 

im using the entry 20", 1680x1050, used to play my 360 on it. i know got difference, i've seen them side by side (most obvious is the black level)... i buy alot of dell LCDs for the engineering dept (CAD) in where i used to work... many people would disagree with me on this: i can neglect the differences between ultra-sharp & non-u.sharp coz the difference is like rm1000, which i would rather spend on something else if im on a tight budget

Well, if you can stretch your budget just a bit, Benq has been selling 24" LCD monitors that are 1080P ready for a while now. They always rotate their model, so prices will vary. I bought my Benq FP241VW from Lowyat for RM2198 not too long ago. Still within your budget at least. I think Viewnet is still selling this same model. Look up the specs here :

Since you're willing to pay RM3K, might as well go with HDTV.

What kind of connection do you mean? The Benq is quite versatile, as it has pretty much all types of video connection: composite, component, S-Video, D-sub, DVI, and HDMI. In fact, it is actually the 27" that's lacking: no HDMI input.

Ok since you've settled with a non HDMI LCD , why would you still opting for the elite . If the budget does constraint , I don't really see a point in it .

IIRC , most games are upscaled only and Halo3 native is at 640p . IMO full HD is a joke at smaller display .

P/s : The Dell LCD if used on PC sure helluva awesome though . 

Xbox 360, don't need to PM me about this. We can talk about it here. It's not like you're confessing your feelings to me so don't be shy.
Fanboy-ism? Of what??! I am so freakin new here, there nothing to be a fan of... The only reason I ordered so fast is because the offer ends Monday. Have some pity on me, I am new here... sweat.gif

Oh not to worry, my order can be "put on hold" on Monday. Furthermore processing will take longer coz' Tuesday not everyone is working.
Anyways, what if in the future, there are 1080p (full HD) capable games?
Another question, what is the price range of a full HD 1080p HDTV ?



To your first question:

Did you even read my previous posts? Click on the links and read.

There are already 1080p games. But they're only a small handful and most of the major titles are still doing their upscaling trick.

Most native 1080p games now are usually games that don't tax the CPU/GPU of the 360 much, so developers can afford to up the reso to 1920x1080.

Developers like Bungie give some dingdong excuse that they want gamers to have a more 'realistic blabla yadayada experience' so  they have to lower to 640p and give more bling effects. But the brutal truth is Halo 3 would be crawling on your screen if they gave it native 1080p.

Your only chance of the next uber game with fancy effects, crazy lighting and graphical coolness to have native 1080p is when developers/programmers suddenly learned how to code better or that the Xbox 360 got a CPU/GPU upgrade.

So stop counting pixels and be a goddamn gamer and start playing.

To your second question:

I assume you're trying to be sarcastic and trying to show me that 1080p HDTVs are Rm5k++ and that you're getting a God-given deal with your precious Dell 2707 at a mere 2999.

Again, read - my - posts

I showed you 2 options: one if you're still adamant about 1920x1200, and one if you're willing to go for more screen space.

The 2407 is a damn fine monitor, and thus paying RM700 for another 3 inches is just not worth it.

and when you compare the equally good BenQ 24" which you save a whopping RM1240, it's just borderline stupid.
Pity your parents little boy. Help them save some money for themselves and give up the damn 3 inches.

I think you should grow up and get a job! 
So,mommy and daddy still pays for your boxer shorts and provide money for your dates? 

yeah, I was like huh ? agree? agree on what ?

must ask ed1001, or ahbiao on this matter...

dude, I was like asking who or which "guy" talk to you on this matter, I was blur that gamer's hideout agree on you on something.

which is why I ask. but I guess you didn't ask them thier name though. if is not me then who..

if u budget are rm 3k..go get 32' lcd tv la....there's no way u can get full hd tv without rm 5k and above....go get a job la...then buy....but if i were you i will not toss away my money for gaming solution...just stick with 19' lcd widescreen monitor are enough for me.....

lol!...not getting much love from Gamers Hideout huh? Chill bro...its all good...they got like too many customers anyway...1 more customer like you wont make any difference...i still go GH to get some stuff...they are really one of the best places to get your console fix.

but if I need to talk 'technical' or get advise, I'd go to Gamers Solution City Bazar (in front of pertama)..talk to bernard..he the man...cheers

Just get a Bravia X 70 inch and everyone will be happy.
