Howdy,
I currently have a ViewSonic VP201b that I must admit is fantastic, and have no probs with playing games or in windows, but I'm really tempted by the Dell Ultrasharp 2405FPW 24" Widescreen LCD Monitor which is in the "This week only" offers here at ocuk.
The problem I have is how would this run with games? I must admit Im not a massive game player, but I have been hooked on Oblivion for a long time now, and do like to play games now and then so I wouldn't want a serious lag.
My main issue is with the res, as this monitor has a response time of 16ms, which is memory serves me is the same as my current ViewSonic VP201b, so that should be the same. The problem I has is I always run my games at the native res of this monitor (1600x1200) and games run fine, but if for example I knock the res down to 1280 then the screen goes all blurry and crap.
Surely running games such as oblivion at the full native res of the 24" Dell would cause serious lag? And wouldn't knociking it down a few res's cause the problem I just mentioned of blurryness?
I would love your opinions on whether I should upgrade of not?
Thanks
