Sitting almost 3 feet away from this thing, I still have the problem. I've tried warm colors, brightness down, gamma down, larger text, and screwing with the sharpness. I'm not sure whats causing it. Before I make an attempt to return this, is it possible that this size just won't work? That...

Nope. That's the thing, I've had perfect vision my whole life, and have never had problems with monitors. As an experiment, I tried it with the brightness down and the lights off, I found that my eye fatigue actually was reduced. It makes me wonder if it is just the positioning of the lights in...

Yeah my old one was a 19". I went with the 22" for the new one because its somewhat the same idea, same resolution as a 20" but larger pixels.

Wow, really fast replys, thanks a lot. I'm away from it right now, so I'll try the gamma thing when I'm in front of it next. Magicolor, I agree is garbage. Default brightness is insane. It seems fine when I'm looking at one spot on the screen, its when I move my eyes. Sitting back from it...

Ok.... it ain't throttling... Don't know how to disable throttling, but I've got rivatuner monitoring clockspeeds too, and they never drop. Incidently I overestimated temps in the last post, they actually only go in the 69-73 degree range, meh. Along the lines of the original topic, I was...

It's not throttling, I've got rivatuner monitoring temps and it never goes above 75-78 degrees. These cards are comfortable at temperatures much higher than 80. It seems very likely that it is a memory issue since that is the only difference between them and the higher end 640MB ones. My major...

Hey I've got the same problem. In my case, on Lord of the Rings Online, it will perform well for about 5 minutes, then it will start studdering with low framerates. I have Rivatuner monitoring the memory usage, and its at about 380MB, which could explain it. But ALT-TABing to the desktop and...
