my g220fb is starting to take a dump.. i was planning on selling my tv (Panasonic TC-L42U25 LCD tv with HDMI ports) can i just use it as a monitor instead? or am i better off selling it and getting a cheapish sub 300ish ips/va panel i'm worried cause the viewing distance mostly, and the resolutions i'm going to have to push i run a gigabyte 6850
Your tv despite being larger is likely going to have a lower resolution than your pc monitor. Just make sure your driver supports it.
seems fine, i'm so used to 1024 x 768 anyways.. seems to work great with windows 7 clearfont could be a little better though, but thats cause my distance.. just using it as a temporary
I was one of the people who glommed onto the Westinghouse 37" fad. It was technically a monitor because it had no TV tuner, but it was really designed as a TV. I have a big desk and it sat at the back of it. Now I have a Sceptre 40". Both these monitors had/have HDMI and 1080p. If I have any beef with the Sceptre it's that text isn't quite as sharp as the Westy's. Gaming and internet and pron are great, esp. Flight Simulator.
thats sweet.. well i'm gonna sell it and get a ips actually.. the pixel density is a little annoying, and diablo3 ghosts a little, still not bad though.. great temporary, fonts are pretty good.
I've been using an 32" LCD TV for a monitor for 7 years now. This year I got a full 1080P and it's awesome for gaming.
well my uncle got the korean 27" ips using the same lcd as the mac thunderbolts for 220 + shipping, pixel density will be much better than the tv
I use my sharp 36" lcd for a monitor, resolution set at 720p (1280x720) 1080i is too small to read. Works well, hooked up with dvi to hdmi cable.
I use a Panasonic 47" 1080p plasma as a 4th monitor at work. It sits on a wall about 3 feet away. It looks great. Way better clarity than my old 47" 1080p LCD.
i've been using it, its just annoying haha not to mention the neck strain, and my eyes being all weirded out.. and pretty much...
