New Dell UltraSharp 2405FPW

[kcnychief]

I remember reading that the 2001FP was a Maximum PC "Kick-Ass" product, and was even Gamer Approved.

I didn't think as they went up in size, they would go down in quality. Dell is smarter than that.

I miss my 2405 :ermm:

What happened to it?

What happened to it?

I'm guessing it's in the UK, and he's in NZ?

 

[kcnychief]

Ah, didn't know he had dual-residency, I thought he just moved :s

12MS is the upper limit for gaming IMHO.

From my standpoint, I don't game. Never have, never will, that's why I have my xbox (soon to be xbox360)

Dude, wait for the PS3.

Well, I am going to wait for the PS3, but only to buy a bunch to resell

I know you probably feel that the PS3 will be better, but I am loyal to XBOX as I prefer their sports games (what I play primarily) and their controllers. Granted, I haven't seen much of the PS3 in game, but for now I will stay with XBOX

LOL hijacked indeed.

Fair enough, I wouldn't dream of bashing the 360, I've played on it for hours at a friend's place on an HDTV and it does indeed rock. Just reading up on PS3, and looking at the screens, it's not even comparable to the XBOX anymore. It's in another league altogether.

 

[kcnychief]

In the appropriate thread/section, post some screenies. I wouldn't mind having a look.

 

[Mastershakes]

Roger that, I'll tool around tonight and find some cool screens 4 ya.

I stand by my contention that a true 12ms screen is essentially all you really need and whether you get marketing from Dell or anyone else for displays below that, it is not really going to do much for you.

Indeed.

So far away...
