hi all, a question about the above monitor, is it made by a tiwaneese company and then had hannsg slap thier name on it? i just ordered one which should be with me on friday. only cost £95 inc vat and delivery, bit cheapo i though so wondering if im gonna get what i paid for :D
 
yes iv seen quite a few tft's and they all look crap compared to my crt, so there is no competition there. :p

yes it has got a bit of a chunky frame but since i got to see it in a shop its not too bad. its no replacement for my main crt, this is just going to be used on my download pc which has its monitor off 80% of the time. should help save a lot of desk space over the 19inch crt it will replace.
 
ok it arrived today. not a bad piece of monitor for £96 inc vat and delivery. image is sharp and the blacks are blacker than i thought they would be.

there is no visible ghosting present and the general quality of the screen is quite nice.

when dragging windows around i can see that they become fuzzy to read compared to my crt but thats to be expected.

viewing angles are not too bad horizontally but if you shift up or down then they rapidly start to loose colour and brightness.

speakers lack bass but for free they are good enough for general msn messenger sounds etc.

it only came with a vga cable so im using the vga output from the gfx card.

would there be any difference if i parted with my 3 quid and got a dvi cable?
 
Is it custom

to type

like this

or something?

its quite annoying.

The speakers were not free, they were included in the price! You might see a a improvement in the DVI cable, depends how good the VGA cable is.
 
ok i grab a dvi cable next time im at the local shop.

true the speakers were included in the the price and for the price they are not too bad

so far the monitor seens to be ok, doesn;t seem to get too hot which is good.

will probably order another one of these screens to replace a 19inch crt that is on one of my other machines.
