    If I could find a 20WMGX2 for less than 500 I am pretty sure I would get one! Use my 215TW as backup or another desk in the future. I have not used dual-monitors since the CRT days.....don't have a need anymore. I forgot to add that the reason they are so cheap on Overstock is because they...

    I was considering the dell too. The samsung seemed more worth it especially seeing as you know what you are purchasing. I got my 215TW from tigerdirect and it was here lickety-split. I know tigerdirect is pretty skimpy on support/service there are whole websites dedicated to that : ( But I...

    So I am sitting in front of my brand new samsung 215TW right now! Input lag was noticeable right from the get-go. It's as if my mouse was floating, of course I had been using a CRT for the past two days. Playing around with the pointer speeds in the windows control panel fixed a lot of it...

    Good rant starcycle. I would say it's just good business for these company's. People started to buy TN because of response times, economics worked it's magic having the prices go down and then there was the huge demand. With the demand I am sure came the terrible panel lottery situation, I...

    This monitor is the true upgrade then, I understand. Sure is a lot of money though. Nice assumption with the photo editing, xtknight but my main use with my would be internet/gaming. I read a crap-ton into the slower response, yeah your right. The one frame is not a big deal. Most of the...

    Well as of now it's a toss-up between the two. The input lag/lag reports sound annoying for a $430 price tag, even youtube videos display lag on the 215TW next to the W2207! What a coincidence. Do the two monitors just not even compare? And I should get the 215TW? The price is just so...

    No problem, I just did not know how things ran here. Hell I would donate to the cause in this thread. :D Gladly; Saturn Maybe these digital pictures might help: Image One Image Two Image Three Image Four What I meant to say here is that any kind of color editing, or anything if...

    Chimei eh? While yes I have been pretty reasonably happy with my monitor it has definitely scared the ever living crap out of me in terms of buying a TN panel again. I mean to justify a new monitor I really want something to out-perform what I have now. Am I still going to see the same...

    I am trying to pick out a new LCD monitor. I tried asking the bit-tech.net forums, I tried using the guides at behardware, prad, tft central, x-bit and of course here. I currently own a BenQ FP222W and I was pretty happy. Every now and then I saw some washed out colors in usually SVG...

    *** Official ASUS A7N8X/Deluxe (nForce2) Thread ***

    Well a lot has happened in the last 12 hours or so... I have pretty much decided that I am going to do a hard drive upgrade soon using Vista as the excuse : ) I am going to go for a raptor drive and then keep the 80 gig in there to replace the role of the samsung that is giving me my vista...

    *** Official ASUS A7N8X/Deluxe (nForce2) Thread ***

    Yes. The HD is detected fine in the BIOS every time I have it plugged it. ANd to add. If I boot off the WinXP disc, Gparted, or anything like that and the HD is connected everything is fine and dandy.

    I don't own a IDE -> Sata dongle. Do you know if I could purchase something like that at say radioshack? That seems like a good idea. I unplugged my DVD drives and plugged in samsung and it was the only hardware on that channel and it still gave me the error. I have never had to use jumpers...

    *** Official ASUS A7N8X/Deluxe (nForce2) Thread ***

    While I have not tried the drive on another computer (seeing as that would be a huge pain in the ass). I am more than sure it is fine. In WinXP it worked fine for years and about 14 hours ago it's just until I installed vista that I don't have access to it....because for some reason it causes...

    I was wondering if anyone can help me out with my vista problem. I have installed vista after a lot of troubleshooting. My samsung 160gig HD causes vista not to boot, and after long time I will just get a black screen after that first green status bar. It is set up as the primary slave...
