Just purchased a VX2025, First impressions are very good

Just curious to if im getting the best out of it by using the drivers on the disk that came with the monitor or will using 1's from there website improve things further and how do i go about it?

I'm using the latest windows ones (default installed and then updated via win update) - works v well my end

Enjoy you're new monitor... have had mine for 3-4 months now and it's a fantastic piece of kit - such an improvement over the 13" laptop tft I've been using the past two years lol!

dont think it will really make any difference. The drivers are pretty much only used to allow the PC to recognise the name of the screen as well as it's native resolutions / refresh rates. Sometimes they are needed for functionality like rotation, but dont think you'll see any improvement by fiddling around with them. Unless you have probelms with the current ones or they are buggy, don't bother

I saw an IQ increase when using the supplied drivers as opposed to not.

i had troubles with lines running across my screen when using there drivers, standard windows ones work fine. Using the other DVI output on my mobo seemed to cure it aswell but my other non dvi tft uses that output without any problems.
