Yes I got my inc at tiger direct 2years ago when they had them in the store,the price was so good. I was suspect so i made them plug it in before I bought it. turned out all right. playing shv on it right now.I want another hanns or inc but they have to be ordered on line. I like to test them first if I can.but the hann has three year warrenty so I will prob get another this weeksince I saw the same ad you did.I never would have checked if you hadn't mentioned it.

:rock: WOOHOO! I'm worth something after all!

I agree, the online problem is a pain, but what else can you do? None of the stores in my area have anything comparable.

I recently bought a memory upgrade for my old computer through NewEgg. One of the sticks was bad, but they were very good about getting me a new set within a few days, so I have no complaints about them or their service.

Oh, and the deed is done - I placed my order. Thanks for your help.

And thanks to everybody else! At the risk of repeating myself... :rock:

Do consider the aspect ratio Steve!:hmmm: Mine is 16:10 and have problems with things like the wide screen mod in SH3, the images are squashed on the sides, this can be overcome with nvidia cards I believe but not with ATI cards, the widescreen mod is centered around 16:9 ratio monitors. Mine is a 24" wide monitor (Samsung 2433BW), great monitor other than the above problem.:yep:

Too late now. :D

Considering that the ultimate goal is to play SH5, I'm not too worried. And I still have my square 19" CRT.

Pleased your sorted :sunny:

Anyone got a link to the piece of kit decided upon?

This one? :hmmm:

Cheers :up:

Nice looker and specs are pretty good....only question mark would be the basic function, not being able to wake from sleep? :hmmm:

You go for it Steve :sunny:

I doubt she'll be sleeping much in your hands :DL

I'd like to point out I'm not sure it's that one, hence the question mark. :D


At any rate, I hope it'll be to your liking. :yep:

My comment was not about the specific monitor, but using credit to "afford" a more expensive monitor. That is a common trap that can be financially risky.

Well thanks for that :damn:

:03:

Ah, right....rgr that :yep:

Actually it's this one:

Good resolution and seems to come with the cables you need. :up:

Because its for pc games also you want black colors too look black (at night) not washed out grey so go for a led backlit screen . I have an LG W2486L-PFV . 24" is ideal size . If you use an hdmi make sure it is a good (expensive one) as cheap ones can heat up and be trouble . A dvi connector is all you need . I use a tv card and i can give you a list of my components which i built the computer myself .

Looks cool Steve...enjoy :sunny:

steve.got my hanns-g today works perfect- yours show up yet?

:damn: No! I hate you! :stare:

When I ordered stuff from NewEgg before I used my Post Office box. This was too big, so I told them to send it to my apartment. What they sent instead was an email saying that the bank requires the billing and shipping address to match. So I went online and changed the billing address at the bank's website, and notified NewEgg. I haven't even got a confirmation back yet. They may have shipped it yesterday, and I may get it by Friday, but who knows?

yes that is the problem with PO boxes nobody wants to send anything to them,But it s worth the wait. I'm playing shv and it looks better than my inc so now the inc is on the xp machine.
.

Pfft. Ordered something yesterday, 24th. It's scheduled to arrive 27th next month. :doh:

Just got the confirmation. Should be here by Saturday at the latest.

That happened to me. A company had a speaker cabinet I wanted, discounted to 1/4 the asking price because they're discontinued. I was told it would ship November 5. When I called their customer service the rep was as confused as I was, since they only had one left and wanted to get it out of the warehouse now. When he said "one", I went back and checked my order. Sure enough, I had tried to order two. I changed the order to one and it shipped immediately.

Anyway, my first ever widescreen LCD monitor should arrive in a very short time.
