New computer build.

Thanks for the responses. From the links you have posted Stulid it does look like it cannot be faulted. The only thing is when I looked at the review on responsiveness and gaming it shows this:

dell_u2311h.jpg


The best shot is on the left and the worst is on the right. I can see some slight ghosting even on the best case I believe? But is this not too much to worry about? And olivier the only thing is I did want identical ones considering I am buying at the same time :) I think it will look nicer.

Thanks for the help :)
 
Also just to add the other thing that I like about the Dell is the 3 year warranty. Which includes next business day replacement as well as their 0 dead pixel policy!
 
Again, I have a 2209WPA and a 2407WFP. Both IPS, and not renown for their gaming prowesses. And I have no complains about gaming lag. I used to have a Samsung TN panel before, and didn't notice any difference going to the 2407WFP (apart from how awesome it is). Only some older models have dire input lag, and the 2311 isn't one of them. I wouldn't worry about the ghosting as well. The 2407 is reputed to have ghosting, unless I'm going blind, I haven't noticed any.
 
Just thought I would let you guys know, I have finally made my mind up with what dual monitors to buy. I have gone with what many of you have said and bought two Dell U2311H. I will update when they are here.

Thanks :)
 
Hey guys,

Monitors have finally come today and am just setting up now :D I have also installed a new SATA III hard drive into the SATA 1 port of my computer, however it is not being recognised. It is appearing in disk managment though, am I suppose to format or something first?

Many thanks :)

Click to expand...

right click the shaded area and create a new volume and give it a letter.
 
Thanks guys, OK so I have selected drive letter. Now file system is set on NTFS which I presume is fine. Do I need to set an allocation unit size or do I leave as default? Is the volume label what appears in my computer? So can I change from new volume to say DATA? And lastly is quick format OK because its brand new?

Thanks for the help!
 
Leave the allocation size at default.

The Drive will appear in "my computer" as what ever letter you gave it.

Quick format is fine:)
 
Aslong as the SSD is C: its no issue.

If you want to make games install by default onto this drive (whichever letter it is?) this can be done.
 
Ok excellent. One final thing I just wanted to ask. Now I am finally using my PC because I have monitors. Should I test it properly to make sure that it is running stable. Im guessing stress tests such as prime? Is this worth doing to make sure my build is OK and if so are there other ones as well?

Many thanks!
