I couldn't stand 37" with only a 1920x1080 resolution. It would drive me crazy. Apple 30" display with 2560x1600 would be much better. oh well, i hope you enjoy it.

If 1366x768 looks fantastic on a 32" how can 1920x1080 not look fantastic on a 37" 😕

1920x1080 looks absolutely horrible on my 26" CRT. I can see every single pixel from 5 feet away. Of course, my vision is way above 20/20.

EDIT: 20/16 to be presice.
 
Man, that's excessive.....absurd.....I'm torn between envy, and complete dislike of it. Sure, its nice, but I prefer sitting at my desk to play my games. I am quite satisfied with my 17" Sony LCD @ 12ms...I max out at 1280x1204, but I don't care. Looks awesome, while not dropping too much cash.
 
really freaking cool... I wish I could afford that lol. I'm in need of a new monitor as mine's SOO close to just crapping out. Hopefully it'll last til january 😀

How's the ghosting on that 37 incher?

That makes me want to get a wide screen even more. Hopefully dell will put out a good deal on a 2005FW so I can afford it, lol 😛

Ok I have it sort of set up now. I have to sit about 4 feet from it to read small text. As to the portability, it's definitely not lan party material, sorry. I got an open box one at BB for 1500$.

More pics in a minute.

The only game I play anymore is UT2004 and a bit of civ 4. I'm gonna fire up farcry though and give it a look. The 9800XT handles UT2004 at 1920x1080 high detail pretty well actually. I'm gonna have to upgrade soon anyway though, too bad those connect3d gto's aren't unlocking anymore...

Sorry about the mess in my room, cables and clothing everywhere I know 🙂.

My ugly mug

EDIT: the couch is 4 feet from the tv, so my head is probably 5 to 5.5 feet away and text looks about is big as it did on the 19inch which I usually viewed from 2 to 3 feet.

Dude, how old are you? Do you live with your parents? That looks like an attic.
 
I think the money would have been better spent remodeling that God aweful room it is in! Yikes! :disgust:

Are you living in an attic? Wouldn't the money on the TV be better spent on a downpayment for a house?
 
Why are people complaining about the one thing that will garner the least amount of attention in that room? (I see a severe lack of pictures of "their setups" 😉 ) That's a nice looking monitor. :thumbsup:
