I using 4670 turbo to play the DMC4 with all the high setting and full resolution at 1920*1080, also i dun feel any lag but i do admit my fren 4850 is look a lot better than mine. So just ask yourself, do you really heavy in game? If so, u do need to invest a good card to play the those high FPS game.

Wow, great that u and khaidani will receive it soon and i also went for the 5 years since just add on 60 bucks++. So khaidani, no regret for u to order it online instead buying 2nd hand rite. And welcome to the DELL s2409w family.

@Illiad, for me the dell so far server me well. But u need to adjust a bit since the default is not so great, if u wan comparison better go to the shop that have this 2 unit to test it out.

No idea for the HDMI since i dun have the cable to test it
Hopefully other s2409w user who got use hdmi can answer and better this is not the s2409w problem
But if i not mistaken, i remember Hwoarang45 bro got use it to play PS3, so i think should be no problem

Hi pal, i think the one you mention is the W2207 series, is a hot baby last time due to the performance and the nice stand.

do you send back to the shop where u buy? Actually u can direct go to the Samsung Customer Service Plaza at Plaza Sentral, Kuala Lumpur, i believe that will be faster.

@dfcloud, blank card can't go Samsung shop warranty, i tot they have the serial no. and the receipt from the shop u buy as a prove? Like tat ar.. U just for 1 month since i also no idea about it. Hope ur baby recover soon.

Yes for the G2400W currently can get below RM1000 at Low yat PC outlets but depend still have stock or not.

Actually Europe and other developed country is using 24 inch and now go to the above 24 inch era, for us the 24 inch just popular nowadays. What to do since the living standard is different, the LCD price there really can't compare with here. That's y our demand on the 24 inch is lesser and technology moving is slower than them.

Ya agree with Onion-KiD, that's possibility there. khaidani, do you try to use other LCD which have HDMI port maybe u can borrow from others or using those device which have HDMI to pair with ur LCD, so u will know which item got problem. Beside using HDMI via graphic card u need the installer, do u install it with ur GC driver?

Mm, i also not sure but when i install my new GC it contain the HDMI drive so i just ask whether you got install or not. BTW, u using what graphic card?

Haha i successfully poison my colleague already, he just receive his s2409w unit at office just now.

Haha of cos is nice, he buy this because saw i used it mah
This is not a glossy panel and i dun like glossy due to will have reflection of light if i turn my light on in my room.
I think is one of the best buy since now is RM1089, cheaper RM10 that i bought last time.

Actually the formal 24 inch is taller but s2409w is wider due to the diagonal 24 inch.
Here is the comparison between DELL 2408WFP and s2409w as below:

DELL 2408WFP
Physical Dimensions (HxWxD)
20.4" inches (518.4 mm) x 22.04" inches (559.7mm) x 8.17" inches (207.6mm)

DELL s2409w
Physical Dimensions (HxWxD)
16.39" inches (416.19 mm) x 22.72" inches (576.96 mm) x 8.76" inches (222.6 mm)

Ya u are rite, all the 24 inch is ultrasharp 2408wfp and for the 20 inch is 2007wfp, but still got some of the 22 inch at the VIP table there is the normal TN panel since is near and only show for VIP player. For the gaming result, we must use the accurate and clear vision so must choose those TN panel above.

Those crap LCD is the old model, last time they dun care TN, PVA and IPS panel, as long as can display. But nowadays due to the view of angle problem and want a vivid color display, especially red and blue color which represent banker and player must be show clearly so mostly is using PVA pane above now, for the processor is no choice since all the DELL pc is come with C2D mah. C2D is better since it operate almost 24 hours and the program is running multithreading.

Mostly i depend on the color gamut (better panel normally is above 92%, angle of viewing (better panel normally is 178 degree for horizontal or vertical), if wanna double confirm can visit those LCD forum to find out.
Besides that, i found out Dell website recently have update the Panel type info which is very useful for user knowing what panel they are buying.

Yes, one place order is more than 200 unit so you said got discount or not

I think the thing u mention is the TV Box, u can check at the garage sales there.

Wow, just go n visit the samsung t190 site, is a quite nice model,. And this model is 19 inch with Full HD, i think if play the 1080p video the display will be scale down to very small. If budget allow just go for T220, which also is a Full HD and same features with the T190 but 22 inch.

Haha dun worry, normally Dell will always extend his promotion day. Just either is more discount or less discount only, but it won't be a big different.

@roozaimee, welcome to the dell s2409w family

@owikh84, wah you bought the HDMI cable and test already. I haven't got any since dun have the HDMI device to test it but glad to heard the HDMI port it's work and sad to heard that you got one dead pixel at ur LCD, i better double check a well after i back KL.

dunno whether this latency is cause by our HDMI version 1.2 problem or not. Maybe we need other s2409w users who had plugged it to their console or blue ray player to verify this kind problem.

Haha, that is a good news anyway. Ya wanna ask u, u using the HDMI then u plug the speaker into the LCD audio out port? How is the sound, better that the sound card?

This problem seem familiar, last month i had face about the same problem as you facing now.
1stly, my VGA (i using DVI-VGA converter) can't work to my old CRT so i just use the on board one. Then after a week hand itchy and try again the VGA is working.
After my new s2409w arrive, use the DVI can't work then change to VGA also can't. But the most important thing is switch back to CRT also can't no matter 1st DVI or 2nd DVI port (I had two since using x1600xt), it appear the same error message that you are facing.
Later i check with my fren, the conclusion is the display transfer from my port got problem to the LCD, so i bought the 4670 turbo and using until now.
I think you GC maybe is had some defect, just try to repair if can ( i also want to do so, if you able to get it repair then let me know as well )

The symptoms of my GC is can start the windows well, since i can heard the startup sound, just the LCD can't detect it and had a message " Entering safe mode " and the button is orange color.
So don't know whether is the same problem as you facing?
