Niiiiiice. I've had my 24" for three years, but that is a killer monitor. When's the party? :cheers:

I have my 23" Apple Cinema (older model) for 6 years already. It still doesn't die on me so I have excuse to buy a 26"-28" LCD.

Hee hee...

Honestly, the image on this monitor is "jaw dropping"....

I can see the tears in the Zombies eyes in Left 4 Dead now... :D



Of course, my brother is going to be the benefactor of my my 22" Samsung LCD now. So I bet he'll be smiling as well. :D

I'm jealous DarkFury. That card is a beast! Is the monitor going to be fast enough or will you have to scale it back a bit so you don't shatter that bad boy? ;)

Hmm. Maybe you should send it to me. I could do some comparisons between it and my current monitor. I"ll promise to send you back the one I don't like. Nice setup!

I was trying the demo for Crysis in DirectX 10 on my Planar 26" monitor with my Asus 9800GTX+ and the details in it are pretty amazing. I am back to playing at high settings again after retiring my AGP card (Radeon X800XL). The demo also has a DirectX 9 version. I should try both.
