King REoL Posted March 16, 2002 We got Proview 15" Flat-panels at work, the sharpness is great, but the color and contrast looks terrible, and there's dead columns of pixels in 2 of the 6 monitors. This is why I went the HP route. :) You can go 1600x1200 on a 15" monitor? 0 Share this post Link to post
Zaldron Posted March 16, 2002 Syncmaster 753df at 1280x1024@32, 800x600 for DooM. Source ports aren't that fast in higher resolutions, except maybe Jdoom. 0 Share this post Link to post

spank Posted March 16, 2002 Originally posted by bigbadgangsta /me goes to where King Reol works, kills him and takes his monitorYou wouldn't want to, those Proview LCDs blow. I should know well, it's my mom's monitor. The Auto feature on it destroys the image and every column of four pixels is out of phase, so eveeeerythiiing looooks liiike thiiiis. Besides it can't do anything below 640X480X256, has absolutely no contrast and animations drag horribly. Mine's an awful Philips 104S which despite having been built in '97, can't do more than 800X600@60Hz nor intermediate resolutions such as 512X384 (I used to have a '92ish 14" Getronics monitor that could go up to 1024X768 non-interlaced at 75Hz, so I know what's good). You don't need a 22-incher. It's like sitting on the front row in a cinema. 0 Share this post Link to post

Lüt Posted March 17, 2002 Originally posted by King REoL What monitor does your gaming rig have, and what's it set to (rez-wise)? It's had 3 of the shittiest 19" monitors ever made. The first was something by Cybervision. The afterimage was so bad I could move the mouse from the left side of a black screen (1024x768)to the right and still see it on the left side for about a second. I sent that back and then got a Trinitron (model name; I forget the company name) and that was just horrible, first the display was grainy to the point that I could see the resolution grid of the monitor on EVERY resolution I tried, not to mention the pincushion and trapezoid settings couldn't even come close to making the display a square. I returned that and tried a Samsung SyncMaster 955df which is what I'm currently stuck with, only because the 14-day return period expired before I could get the worthless thing back to the store. This is by far the worst monitor I've used. Not only does it have an annoying after-image, but images streak off to the right side of the screen (for example I can highlight text in notepad on the left side of the screen and see the black smear on my AIM list on the right side of the screen). To top it off, you can see the images being projected onto the BACK side of the display as well as the front. So if I open an IE window and load a black page, I can see the white outlines of the window "inside" the webpage. What else is you can only use focus on the sides of the screen. I can take the right side sharp and the left side blurry, or the left side sharp and the right side blurry. A compromise is that each side partially blurry. Same for top and bottom. I can hardly wait to see how this monitor looks as a decoration on the Samsung CEO's head. Anyway, I usually play Millennium at 640x400 (MBF's max size) or ZDoom at 800x600 on this piece of shit.Originally posted by elbryan42 Fuck mice. Get a trackball. Of course an optical trackball. Ugh, I had to use some guy's trackball at work when I went to fix their Marlok server from time to time. He had his hands in casts because of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, and of course I always forgot to bring mice with, anyway he always got a kick out of my trying to move the cursor around and failing miserably =) 0 Share this post Link to post
