i dont get this.... seen it quite often... i played the game with everythin on medium on my pc, that is nowhere near as good as urs... and it played perfectly with a constantly steady framerate pretty much throughout the entire game
Well I have to play with vsync enabled @ 1920x1200 otherwise it looks too blocky as the Dell2405 does not scale that well below native. Even if I lose the soft shadows it does not look much different and the performance in places is still awful. Remember when you go 1920x1200 it is a huge increase in pixels to move around so performance on the high end kit still suffers accordingly. If I could get a picture I liked @ a lower res then no doubt it would be smoother but still for the gfx on offer very poor looking considering the FPS. To me only time it looks better than average is when you are in slowmode shooting everything in sight and things are exploding all around you. Otherwise I am just missing the attraction of the gfx TBH.

Biggest problem with these larger screens is that @ 1920x1200 you really must have vsync otherwise screen tearing is noticeable and that makes some games chug along!

Im installing Doom 3 and the expansion right now in another window.

Should be good fun, though if you could stretch to £20 BF2 gets my money ;)
