Do you use multiple GPUs?
All of them!
I don't understand how people cannot understand the need for higher resolutions.
We had 2048x1536 back in the days of CRTs! How freaking long do we have to wait for resolutions to stop being held back?
A mere 1920x1080 being considered some kind of standard right now is downright embarrassing.
It's not progress, it's something that is worse than some CRTs 10 years ago!
The fact the home theatre market is going to be stuck with the tiny 1080p for a gajillion years to come thanx to Blu-Ray irritates me greatly, since it will no doubt cause the PC display market to continue to diddle around with shitty resolution displays for countless more years instead of giving us options to improve.
Console gaming makes it even worse, since most titles are designed for 720p, & no doubt the "next gen" will be an amazingly unimpressive 1080p, oh yay. D:
That being said, I game on my BenQ's 1080p resolution because the monitor is 120Hz and motion clarity is orders of magnitude more useful for my gaming than the increased image clarity of the U2711.
That being said it would be great to have the best of both, I eagerly anticipate the day when I can get a 24"+ screen that has a pixel density of 300ppi and can refresh at 100+Hz.
It would have reduced tearing effects but that's about it, it would be hard to recommend it considering the price premium unless you're extremely sensitive to both input lag and tearing.How degraded would the experience be if I didn't have a graphics card that could constantly push 60-120fps at the details I'd like?
I don't think we'll have any 300ppi desktop monitors based off of LCD tech considering higher end monitors like my U2711 are "only" 109ppi with the average consumer PC LCD monitor under 100. So yeah, I implied better than IPS LCD when I said thatToss in IPS or better, and major *drool*.

To fully appreciate such a monitor you really do need a high end rig. And we're not just talking video card as when we consider frame rates in to the 100+ range we need a high end CPU as well.

i have a dell 24" ips for 1920 gaming. I love the aspect ratio and find it MUCH better then 1080 on smaller screens. I do notice slight lag on certain titles but alot of that can be reduced by turning off vsync and triple buffer.
For large use i hook up my plasma over hdmi and game 1080 and when the screen is 42" you really don't mind the 1080. the 600mhz refresh is really astounding and reminds me of my old sony fw-900 crt
The Dell U24 series isn't bad, but I'm not a fan of matte displays. Maybe if I can get it on sale for $350 or so I"ll grab it to replace this ailing HP since it wouldn't be an upgrade, more of a drop-in replacement. I do prefer x1200 vice x1080 on a 24" form factor.QUOTE]
I know i bought my 2410 anticipating the price would drop so i could add 2 more for a nice eyefinity setup with my high end rig. . .but the price has been stable since i bought it last year this time. I ended up getting a 3d plasma to replace my eyefinity aspirations which i run off the second port with an hdmi out adapter over the dvi-. The blacks and color on the plasma are quite beautiful on newer games.

I'm with reallyscrued - high pixel density and low dot pitch. My absolute maximum dot pitch anymore is a 24" at 1920x1200. I don't see how people can use these 28" 1920x1080p monitors for daily use on a computer. That's like having pixels so big you can handle them with chopsticks.
You can get a i-INC 28" monitor that is 1920x1200 for around $260...
That is what I was using before the HP LD4200...
Totally agree. I'll game on my 42" 1080p TV from 5-8ft, but I can not stand using it as a monitor for normal use from any viewing distance. 1080p is simply too low res for the size of screen when using computer applications. I can't imagine using a 32" 1080p "monitor" at normal computer monitor viewing distance. Yikes.
2560x1600 on a 24" IPS with 120hz would be nice.
I'm not sure IPS is or ever will be fast enough for 120Hz. Technically even TN isn't fast enough for all pixel transitions to do 120Hz, as any pixel state transition that is greater than 8.3ms won't be fast enough (1000/120Hz), and 2-5ms pixel response time that TN boasts is the best case scenario.
what we need is OLED or whatever to hurry up and get here
I finally saw a 23 inch LG IPS monitor yesterday at Bestbuy; the colors were vivid but not enough to make me go "oh man, I will never own anything but IPS!"
