    Samsung U28D590 mini review

    Thanks for that. It would still be good to have a first hand statement on the quality of the upscale, even if only because I'll probably have a console on one of the hdmi ports too.

    Samsung U28D590 mini review

    I'd love to get one of these for normal desktop/development use. Unfortunately I only have a single gtx 780 which I'd imagine is relatively useless for gaming on this display. Every review seems to mention SLIed titans or similar :) Have any of you tried 1920x1080 upscaled for gaming? If not...

    Samsung 950D strangeness

    2d->3d via monitor doesnt crash, only TriDef. That said, as judmann points out above, you wont be alt-tabbing on purpose if you're opting for 3D. Turning 3D->2D (on the monitor, or via TriDef OSD) before alt tabbing has no effect on the TriDef crashing issue for me.

    Samsung 950D strangeness

    You're probably realising what I have - 16:10 is a dying breed. Most games at this stage are made for 16:9 - that's what most people have, especially if the game has a console release too. With that in mind 16:9 is probably "the way it's meant to be played". I haven't tried a game yet where it...

    Samsung 950D strangeness

    Just had a game on TF2 on it - it's *much* better looking on the 950D than the 245B in 2D in every way. The below experience comes from using TriDef's in-built profiles. Keep in mind that I have made no special effort to tweak/configure them in any way. Once the game(s) are running you can...

    Samsung 950D strangeness

    Judmann - I won't have time to really get into it until the weekend but my initial impressions are below (keep in mind that these opinions are gathered from at most 5 mins spent on each and VERY little calibration): Quality, clarity, colour are a LOT better than my previous monitor (a Samsung...

    Samsung 950D strangeness

    fLaPzZ - 950 arrived. I gave it a bash in TF2 but did NOT experience the issue you have described in 2D. In 3D there was some crosstalk but I don't think that's what you're seeing? I tried both 60 & 120hz, 2D, 3D, and a few games without issue. I'm using the monitor driver supplied on the CD. I...

    Samsung 950D strangeness

    fLaPzZ - my 950 shipped today. When it arrives I'll try it with my 580 & TF2 and let you know how I get on with it.

    *****SANDYBRIDGE MOTHERBOARD CHIPSET ISSUE*****

    Thanks for the clarification. Usually a family member will inherit my 'old' PCs so there's no resale value to worry about. I'd be more concerned with the replacement lead time/problems with the new board & further delays/etc! :)

    *****SANDYBRIDGE MOTHERBOARD CHIPSET ISSUE*****

    Can someone (preferably OCuk staff) please confirm the information from this post (click me!) is correct and applies to the P8P67 Deluxe? In other words, if I don't use the light blue ports (or ever plan to) then there's no *need* for me to replace my P8P67 Deluxe? Thanks.

    Getting a computer built, is the spec good enough?

    I ordered from that company before, several times in fact. Shipping internationally they require payment up front which can be a negative for some people. I was happy with them until my most recent purchase where the PC was damaged in-transit due to how they had installed/bound components in...

    New Sandybridge pre-built 'gamer' systems?

    Thanks for the replies guys. I was pretty diligent about looking for the date in other threads on this forum, not sure how I missed it - apologies for the spam so! 7 new systems, possibly as early as the 9th? Awesome!

    New Sandybridge pre-built 'gamer' systems?

    Hi guys, I've held out for the last round of graphic card refreshes and Sandybridge and, finally, the wait is almost over. With that in mind I'm just curious when new pre-built systems are likely to appear on your site including Sandybridge chips (e.g. week/month/6months after launch)? If...
