Ugh, it looks horrible. Visually, I mean. The specs are amazing, but the card itself looks a bit overpolished. I'm also quite suprised at the power consumption, I expected it to be waaay over 500 watts. |

No component is going anywhere near my rig unless it's pretty.

I would say it depends what inputs you want BenQ has D-Sub / DVI-D / HDMI / but is not as bright only 250cd/m2 The dell has 400 cd/m 2 but only has Analógico, DVI-D (Digital) con HDCP |

HDMI can be changed to DVI-D, is that correct?? btw, i wont use hdmi soon, atm is only for pc (i wont have ps3 or xbox), but maybe an external video HD. |

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showpro...0Aluminium Looks like I may go for the Hazro HZ24Wi 24" which is SIPS Panel, its only taken me a month or so to get this far grr do I not like the overly complicated tft market its easier to spec & build the rest of the PC than deal with a TFT panel BTW the page mostly has the details for the old version the HZ24W so some of the spec has improved Edited by sick-lizard on 18-08-2008 17:23 |

although expensive its the cheapest SIPS panel around & has half the input lag of the DELL (2408WFP S-PVA panel) and dosen't cost that much more (£381.86 inc VAT vs £458.24 inc VAT).. I did shudder a bit when I looked at the 26inch versions price of £587.49 inc VAT  |

I went and brought the BenQ V2400W 24" Widescreen screen. I havent tested it out much with other games but playing TF2 on the new sexy screen is amazing Thats for this post guys :3
