my trusty samsung 172x lcd died on me after 4 yrs ... sad.gif
i think it's due to the power brick kaput alrdy .... no output voltage at all ...
now have to source for a new lcd ...argghh ...

haih, i had just thought of getting a radeon 4850 ..
so, what's the best i can get for RM550 max ? (sucks ...thats my budget for 4830/4850!! doh.gif )

is samsung 933bw good? im looking for something with dvi conn if possible

Rm550? Hmm, try to search for those BenQ LCDs...
They are dirt cheap, and the specs seem pretty nice too.

I work in Bwh...Haha, but well, after some time on LYN, i found out that some of the forumers here are actually my colleagues.
Where are you from? Moto?

Btw those who are new here, welcome to POC...Seems our members database is expanding.
Stay tuned guys, i'll start to update the members database and also our past events in the main page after the 9th of Dec.
Having papers until 8th, so won't have time to start compiling and updating...

For a note,I'm just an 18 year old student..........I'm not as pro as you "old fellars" yetlah.........Anybody going to PC fair?

ermm i was in Mot for a while but now in Intel pulak ... biggrin.gif

yeah i saw those benq's are cheap, but are they reliable? any issues with dead pixels and stuff?
the new benq series with HD reso is very enticing .... nyum nyum
Benq T2200HD, 22", 1920x1080 ...i wonder how much they gonna sell it at pc fair
coz i saw some forumer bought it lowyat for RM550-580 ...that's pretty cheap! drool.gif

@ benbin,
the spec meno gave is pretty good ady .. even without oc, u can play most games at high reso smoothly ... but as always, oc is much more fun! ... squeeze every bit of ur system for more performance ! hehe (proceed with caution ...dun say i teach u aa.. wahaha)

@meno
nah... im not going for more than 22" ... 27" is close to my 32" lcd tv, which i already use for movies
my initial 'plan' was just to replace my recently dead lcd and the replacement was supposed to be a 17" only ...
but with a budget around 550-600 max, i think 19" to 22" is just nice ...

now, who have any internal info about pc fair deals on lcd? tongue.gif

errr ... any of u guys selling off ur 19", 20" or 22" lcd ?
my max budget is rm550 only, so with current lcd price in penang, there's no way i can grab anything bigger than 20" lcd ..
i guess i wud have to stick with 17" or 19" for now blush.gif
knew any good deal around?

i7 920 c0 = SLBCH
i7 920 d0 = SLBEJ

but i would definitely wait for core i5 to be launched ... lower power consumption, works with ibexpeak-based chipset mobo , dual channel ddr3 and a few more new features ...
so i'm sure the price of the cpu/mobo will be lower than current i7's

yeah, i thought so too ... i alrdy thought that u would consider it as 'not an upgrade' path tongue.gif
but to me, due to the different socket of i7 and i5, someone upgrading to i7 path will have to stick with the 'high-end' proc/mobo instead of the mainstream proc/mobo of i5 later on. (e.g:cheaper)
with i5, more choices will be out for u in the future as it's gonna be the mainstream proc ...
and there'll be even more choices for u when the westmere-based cpu's are out
