2x3007WFP? :p
ive thought about it, but believe it or not.. im finally HAPPY with my setup.. :D i cant see me upgrading much.. if anything just another 2001fp.. sometime in the future but thats about it.. the real estate i have now is 3,760 x 1,600 which is PLENTY
 
this thing just ooooozesss sex appeal... the touch sensetive buttons are a nice touch ;) (see what i did there) lol

yeah its an amazing monitor.. played a bit of F.E.A.R XP before and oh my god its **** scary!!!

i did a bit of photoshopping.. and came up with this.. it shows the different sizes. there is also a pic of the setup you mentioned on hardforum it looks sweet..

i had 1 of my 2407wfp's left at this point so i thought i would photoshop a 3007WFP in the middle (i would have actually had this setup for a few days if the delivery people hadnt forgot to send me it! (anyway.. bit of a rush job because i was just fed up that i didnt have the real one..

As you can see the size of the 20" on the left and the 24" on the right.. it does really make a lot of difference those extra inches (if youve ever seen a 2407wfp in portrait, youd understand just how big this monitor is)

Yes ive sold my 2407WFP's to fund this.. i was going to be greedy and hae another 2001fp on the other side.. but after sitting infront of this 30" it really is enough..

i do a little photoshop, im at uni doing a computing course and will soon be doing web pages and programming.. so it will help with that.. AND it lookes awesom.. watched a HD Film i downloaded and its amazing!

as for creating high res images.. im **** at it, i cant create anything decent.. i may have to look into that..
 
the 24" is just 3.5inches(ish) longer (portrait) or wider (landscape)

when you think about it its only an extra 320pixels wider.. but its surprising how much difference it makes when watching dvd's or widescreen gaming.

I am waiting for a photo :)
what kind of photo do you want? (am i just being stupid?)
 
anh my setup is as you see 2001fp and 3007wfp, currently dont have enough graphics power to power a 3rd 2001fp (that would be my next option) if i felt i could afford one..

but that would end up costing me about £270 for another 2001 + pci gfx to run it..

so i dont know.. i think im rather happy with this 30" and 20" for now.. its quite sufficient.

ive been trying to source a silver 2001FP with no luck.. so i dont know what im doing yet.. i might just get a laptop.

possibilities are endless!

if you want any specific pics just ask.. (can host 9MP pic if you want)
 
its actually not bad. it copes better than i thought it would (turning soft shadows off in FEAR) got me nearly playable eveything else max

In fear xp you need to go into a subway which has tiled walls and those metal mesh gates... that really slows down performace.. all the AA it has to do.. but other than that if i dropped some settings i could have an easily playable game

need for speed most wanted on full setting at full res coped very well. playable framerate throughout!

This picture is CLICKABLE for Full Res!


havent tried any others as i dont really game that much anyway..

no ghosting to speak of, gradients are fine overall a really good buy im really happy with it.. that happy ive decided to sell the 2001fp and just have this as a single monitor.

although that is mainly due to the fact ive bought a HD-DVD drive (xbox 360 one) to try and get some HD-DVDs to watch on it, which arent cheap either..

i will post back with some pics of the HD DVD's in action if i get it working

i have errr, made up a problem with it to get a replacement! rest assured to you people i will try my hardest to get a new one.. its 2 inches down and 5 inches in from the right.. its annoying the living **** out of me!

i noticed it lastnight i was absolutely fuming!

so. made up a nice problem, e-mailed the guy, and hopefully he will sort out a swap for me.. if not i'll contact dell direct and claim the same problem and hopefully they will replace it!

i'll let you know how i get one.

*NOT HAPPY*

yeah theres no point getting this monitor for a 360 as the res is more than a 360 can do anyway.
plus it only has DVI

im not impressed with this pixel problem... hopefully it will get replaced soon and i will have 2 of these for a while :)
