Dell S2409W 24" has maximum resolution at 1920 x 1080. But can this lcd run full screen beautifully at resolution 1280 x 720 with DVI input?

same goes to samsung..

Hi, my first post(or reply) in lowyat forums!

No. 1. Basically I want to get a 22" monitor. My budget is Rm 600 MAX.

REQUIREMTS: Gaming, Movies, BASIC photo editing, etc.

My eyes are on the Samsung 2233SW OR DELL S2209W.

LINK: DELL: Dell S2209W

LINK: SAMSUNG: Samusng 2233SW

PROBLEM IS THEY ARE ALL FULL HD! Although its good to have full hd, can I reduce the resolution without sacrificing Image quality in windows desktop like 1680*1050 or 1440*900, if not I'm afraid my parents might not be able to read text on 1920*1080. And I'm using a TERRIBLY OLD Pentium 4, so I game at 800*600 which SUX so does either of this monitor render things just ok(not perfect but ok) when in 800*600??? BTW, I know i need a new comp to play games(just can't force them to buy 1 yet)


DON'T WORRY IF you people think my choices are not so good. Then recommend me other models. I have no real preferences in brands.

No. 2. Is there any good monitor calibrator and dead pixel checker for n00bs???

Thanks for ALL your help!!:respect:

why dont you just go for dell24inch?

COD = Cash On Delivery
