320mb GTS - 22"

640mb GTS - 24"

I am looking at screens now myself and the Samsung 226BW is the top on my list but I can't get one anywhere, same thing with the LG L226WT.

i have a 512mb 1900xtx saphire and running 24inch dell 2047, max settings in all games. runs perfect.

id pick my 24inch again anyday

im going for the 320mb GTS

i would rather go 22 if it was much better than going for a 24, i will want to get the most out of my system without loosing quality&performance

so what model tft "22" i would like a nice looking one as well as a good performance one,thats why i like the look of the samsung

I'm hoping to get my 226BW on Wednesday after work, Will post a review as soon as I've tested it.

Gonna phone to confirm availability with the buyers tomorrow hopefully.

 

[wigster]

I think you should wait personally

I have just confirmed with the buyer that they are coming in to Manchester tomorrow so I should have mine at home on Wednesday. I will post a review and also state if it is a samsung panel or an AUO one.

Cheers,

Well, even the 320meg will run 1920x1200 the 'native 24inch' resolution.

But it will run out of memory if you turn AA/AF up too high. Not sure exactly what point the memory will limit you though. For instance, you might be able to run in 2xAA 1920x1200 without any problems.

My 7900GTO (512mb) handles 1920x1200 with ease, in well programmed games, with all eye candy maxed out, and in badly coded games, its still pretty impressive.

I was looking at the Samsung 226BW and decided that was the one to get however like you could not find one anywhere so I ended up spending extra and bought the Dell 24" instead since I have a 8800 GTX .... I am SO glad I made the purchase!

It arrived last night (ordered from somewhere that guaranteed a A04 revision) and even though so far I have only played WoW on it I am VERY impressed

I had a couple of 19" Xerox screens prior to this and the difference in quality and sharpness is very clear to see

see told ya

people dont see how good the 24inch dell is untill they actually see it!
its not even that huge, its just the quality it dishes out. i love it!
