Same as last year's resolution:

2736 x 1050 @ 72 Hz

(That would 1440 + 1440 - a 10% blend zone x 1050 of Blendzilla nirvanna projected through some seriously MP modd'd 50-2035-03 VIMs onto a 144" x 61" 2.35:1 SMX screen)


...........and still waiting for Blendzilla's nemisis Rodan-O-Blend !!!! to appear Smile


Happy New Year Everyone

1680x1050 (I beleive 60hz, until i get my video processor up and running Smile)

Otherwise all other displays I use are as follows:
1600x1200 NEC 21" LCD (Monitor A), 1920x1200 NEC 2490WUXI with CyberTouch touchscreen (working on a 2nd NEC 21" for triple monitors on the desktop)

Oh and this display that I use for digital signage/gaming: NEC LCD4020-2-BK 1366x768 40" LCD monitor

Lappys:

Dell XPS M1710 1920x1200, HP DV9700 1440x900 (upgrading to 1920x1200), HP Touchsmart IQ770 1440x900

And last but not least, the TVs: Sony KD-34XBR970 usually viewed at 720p or 1080i, same for the Sony KP-75HW40

the NEC LCDs are premium displays, I wouldnt go any lower in quality, because sadly LCD panels suck and to get a half way decent one you need to spend lots of $$, but so far they have the most accurate colors I have seen while comparing them to other brand displays side by side (at the same price range)

Those 30" 1600p Samsung, Dell, LG displays may have nice high resolutions and fast response times, but the COLOR BLOWS compared to an NEC.

yes, I am an addict, and proud of it Very Happy

Not really, I only game on my XG, The Desktop gets used for a file/media server more than anything, but yes on occasion I will watch a movie or play a game on it...

The 40" LCD really only gets used by guests when I have a LAN party, otherwise it sits idle until needed Smile

Anything on an LCD... That is what you meant!!

I dont know of any 17 inch LCD monitor that can roll up to 1920x1440, you have to sit so damn close cause everything is so small, so the screen still seems big!! Laughing

Rodan-O-Blend is alive and kickin' some serious ASS!!!


Using "active area scanning" it starts with 1920X800 @ 24fsp, then split and upgraded to two 1064X1200 @ 72 Hz.
With contrast set in the 40's it projects an awesome 126" wide, 2.40 AR image at above 14 FL.

Round 2 goes to Rodan-O-Blend.
