    Call Of Duty+United Offensive

    You probably want to post this in another section like Software. But I'll respond to your question since I am a big CoD fan. I too was excited when UO was coming out. My reaction to the game is mixed. I think the tanks add some additional excitement and flavor to the game, but I do think...

    Simple Straightforward Question Regarding LCD v. CRT

    This is precisely why I'm not convinced to make a move to LCD yet. If I'm dropping $800 on a monitor, the only reaction I want to have when I fire it up is "holy $hit, this thing is awesome!!"

    Simple Straightforward Question Regarding LCD v. CRT

    Honestly? I don't know. I've never owned an LCD or have seen a dead pixel before so I'm not sure what to look for but I can imagine.

    Simple Straightforward Question Regarding LCD v. CRT

    Yes I've read them. I also read about 50 pages of the Dell 2001FP user forums. Generally, owners are very pleased with this monitor, but for many, it seems like they have to go through several with dead pixels before they get one that's acceptable, and even then they may have a few dead ones...

    Simple Straightforward Question Regarding LCD v. CRT

    A good monitor... but heavy, hot, power hungry, and not good if you are married or have a girlfriend :P Yeah, that's always a concern - the 19-inch Hitachi I'm currently using is a beast in and of itself. I cringe at the thought of my wife's reaction when Fedex shows up at the door with a...

    Simple Straightforward Question Regarding LCD v. CRT

    My eyes are already shot. Last check, my uncorrected vision is roughly 20/500. For anyone who doesn't know what that means, I have to stand no further than 20 feet away to read the same sign that a person with 20/20 vision can read at 500 feet away. Someone correct me if that's wrong.

    Simple Straightforward Question Regarding LCD v. CRT

    I posted this same thread over at the Sharky forums (always good to get as many opinions as possible) and some people over there alluded to the newer LCD technology on the horizon, particularly OLED and SED technology. I found a couple of articles online and have pasted them below. I'd like...

    Simple Straightforward Question Regarding LCD v. CRT

    All of your responses are interesting. Jiff, you bring up some good points. Some can see the screen door effect while others can't. Not having any experience with LCD monitors, I don't know what it looks like. Or ghosting, for that matter. As far as dead pixels, if I'm paying $800 for...

    Simple Straightforward Question Regarding LCD v. CRT

    Rage187 - I hate you and I love you. The 2001FP is the reason why I started the thread. I've been wading through pages and pages on the 2001FP online forums to see if this monitor will fit my gaming needs. While most people are satified with it, the issues deterring me are the usual -...

    Simple Straightforward Question Regarding LCD v. CRT

    Is there currently on the market a 20-inch LCD monitor that can match the pure gaming performance of, say, a 22-inch NEC/Mistubishi Diamondtron monitor? The LCD must have a native resolution of 1600x1200. That's all I want to know. I don't care about desk space, eye strain, reading text...

    AMD Athlon 64 3400+.. Newcastle vs clawhammer

    You will get different answers from different people. I'm in the same boat as you since I plan to buy a 3400+ in January (who knows - by then I'll probably want a 3800+) Some swear that the extra 200mhz is better than the extra 512kb of cache and that the Newcastles overclock better...

    Monitor Extension Cable

    Which one do you have? Is it a thick one? It seems like the Belkin cable that people had trouble with is a very thin one - beige in color.

    Monitor Extension Cable

    I need about one more foot from my monitor cable to move my PC to the ideal location by my desk. Can anyone recommend a good extension cable and from where? I read a few reviews where people said the Belkin cables were crap because they cause ghosting on the monitor. I stopped by my local...

    Need help picking the best optical mouse

    I highly recommend the MX-510. I picked one up a couple of months ago and it is the best mouse I have used. I didn't want to buy a cordless mouse because I'm not convinced that they are lag-free. I just didn't want to plunk down alot of money on a cordless to find out that it lags. Besides...

    Venus 12 or Zalman CNPS7000A-Cu for A64 3400+??

    Gigahurtz, it's funny that you recommend the XP-90 and XP-120, because right after I started this thread I started doing more HSF research and found those two to be very worthy candidates as well. I had a Thermaltake Volcano 7 in my current system until recently. I'm not sure how it did as...
