    LG L227WTG - backlight bleed

    Please do, I ended up keeping mine. I rarley notice the light while gaming and it was only when the screen was dark. just finished playing fear and it didn't bother me. I did end up lowering the brightness quite a bit...i think I put it from 100 (factory) to around 50.

    My bi-annual "Who is still running an skt 939 FX chip" thread

    I dig it....Nothing really special added from '07....graphics are better. I design courses for it and the lack of support EA has given the PC is a little dissapointing. We're still using the '06 course architect to make '08 courses : ( ..... but it's working.

    My bi-annual "Who is still running an skt 939 FX chip" thread

    I'm still running an FX55 on Asus A8V Deluxe. Built it with the 3500+ but upgraded to the FX55 when Newegg was selling them for $100. Still playing Tiger Woods 08 on it with a 7800GS.....but thats about it. It's showing it's age with most of the new games so I built a new rig for gaming and...

    [Retired] The LCD Thread

    Ok...so the LG L227WTG is #1 gaming monitor.....How does the LG 2252TQ stack up against it. I did a side by side comparison from LG's site and only differences I could see were the 227 had some color gamut domination thing and 16.7 mil colors to 16.2 million in the 2252. The 2252 is $80.00...

    Would this make a good gaming LCD monitor?

    For what its worth, my brother has the 20wg and it looks great....watched him playing gears of war the other day and I was surprised how good it looked for a sub $200 monitor. For close to $300...that 24" looks like a great deal.

    Final suggestions?

    Snatch that Antec 850w at Comp Usa $129.95 after rebates.....I think the quality 850w or higher is a smart move for future upgrades.....especially at that price.....fo sho.

    Activating Vista w/o internet connection

    Thanks for input folks...... My "plan" is to use this new rig for gaming only and my old rig for internet, burning game updates, driver updates etc. I guess I'll see how it goes, I thought it might be cool to avoid having Norton, Zonealarm, AVG, Spybot etc etc etc on my gaming...
