wait ! What is a C panel. Don't tell me that 226bw has a 3rd type of panel which is C.

shhhh

I got the ViewSonic VG2230wm it's a very nice display not unhappy with it at all

woohoo now have enough juice to run this screen P5N32-E SLI, 2 Gig Corsair Twin XMS2, Core 2 6400 with xfx7800gtx n xfi xtrememusic, bf2 avg 88FPS avg everything max, 4xAA & sound ultra, must chech the rest of the collection

You mind buying me a 226bw then since you happen to have a lot money and don't know what to do with it?

lol, nah ive had the stuff for ages, i sold my old PC to my gf cheap and used the cash to buy a new rig, so i got my new PC or the price of the Samsung 226, i.e. thats all i had to pay for .

Ive had the stuff for the past 2 months but the mobo was fubar and had to RMA it, i want to OC it to around 3.5Ghz but its still too unstable so have to sort that first

I'd try better cpu cooling if you can't hit 3.5ghz stable, but so you got that stuff cheap...Will you give me a samsung 226bw now? 8O

lol

I have a scythe mine cooler, definately not having heat problems CPU idle @28 under load 40 i think( only have it up and running since last night and im mostly installing stuff as gf is taking her PC today, so im in a rush to take everything off her PC i need ), im guessing its memory timings, its corsair twin xms2 C4 but i tried 4-4-4-12 @2.1v but that didnt work so i relaxed it to 5-5-5-15, so far seems ok, and i did play bf2 for hours last night

Remember you'll need to have a decent enough system for that samsung to get good performance at native res, i couldnt believe my FEAR results , 6% between 25 & 40( lowest 30 ), avg was 70FPS & MAX 180 or something, thats with all settings at max except AA off & no soft shadows( kills the 7800, halves the rame rates )

i bought an amd 4200+ last year for nearly the same price as this mobo and 6400

Now just to pick up a copy of Vista Ultimate cheap( i know its crap at the mo, but it'll be fine on dual boot )

samsung 206 bw or 226 bw is a difference to handle between the 2 monitors

at 1600x900 res or they are no difference because i will buy one of the 2 lcd panel in a few days btw i have a 6600gt and 3 GHZ AMD

or i have to go down to 1280x780 in res ?

tyvm

Right now I'm so happy, because I managed to find benq's 24" on the cheap for just $370, but it's a refurbished model, something I can put up with though, I just need to save up $100 and it's mine

the 226's highest res is 1600 x 1050, if thats your only choice id taker the 226 because its 2 inches bigger

wow, good price,its ment to be a very good screen, start saving

Yup, I just need to save up a tiny bit from my job that I start soon, and I'll be there within a few weeks

anybody know a program (power strip dont work) to add resolutions to my 226 BW like 1280x800 and 1440x900 with my 6600 gt nvidia

tyvm

why would you want those resolutions? if you set those in games it will automatically scale anyway

for my applications dont play games often

ahh ok, but why would you want to run applications in non native res? they would look terrible, couldnt you run them in a window?

I know what youre saying though, but i dont know how that would work except forcing the video card to scale the image as games do
