According to the guy on the phone, Sharp's only "true" 1080p set is their 32".

I just got off the phone with Sharp, yet again... I updated the VizWorld article with this:

well, those things /will/ generate 1080p outputs, yes, but the TV won't accept them. HDMI & component all cap out at 1080i with everything we've tried.

Does the 65" Aquos fall under "early 1080p" umbrella? It's a pretty new TV I believe...

That's what they say if you talk to them on the phone.. We've tried twice, got 2 different operators, and that's what they say. Combined with the evidence that everything we hook up to it only locks in at 1080i, and forcing 1080p over HDMI winds up with "Unsupported Signal", it seems Sharp...

Do any "terrestrial broadcast"s do 1080p? I'm pretty sure that DirectTV & such stop at 1080i, and most TV stations are only doin 720 right?

What's the difference between Analog & Digital? Why, it's which side of the DAC you put them on, of course :) Seriously tho, Brown is right. it's the Discretization that's the real trick. In the analog world you deal with "real continuous" signals, while in the digital works you deal with...

Just checkin in to let you guys know that I got the new card, and it rocks! I posted all the gory details on my website.

Thanks guys.. Looks like I'm gonna take the eVGA 6800GS N397, probably from NewEgg. Thanks again for the input :)

I doubt I'll ever be using the support, but I know what ya mean.. I'm pretty much focusing on BFG & eVGA.

Ahh, thanks for the pointer to ZZF, I forgot about them. If the 6800GS is considered the "good" choice, then which is better eVGA 6800GS ($223 with $20 Mail-in Rebate) or the BFG 6800GS ($199)..

I'm lookin to upgrade my system, (just checked out the DDO Beta.. Time to upgrade :) ). Here's my current relevant specs: AMD Athlon 3000 (2.2GHz) 1 Gig Ram NVidia 5900 Windows XP Seems to me the obvious thing to change is the Video Card (feel free to correct me if i'm...

Well, is it a significant increase in capability? I'ld say Yes. Is it worth the price? Definately not, unless you're a full-time professional graphics/photo editor, then only maybe. Direct Link to skip the FrontPage

To google ??? If you open explorer (like My Computer, or even IE) and type in the address bar "\\ipaddress" it takes you to google ? No http or anything.. Just \\ip . Try using the Start->Run and typing in \\ip there..

It could take a few minutes before it appears there (have to wait for the Windows browser to do it's thing). if you don't want to wait, you can just open Explorer and type \\ipaddress or \\computername
