New Hotness.......

Post by LegacyPunk »

A monitor that I just got, split the price 50/50 with my dad, its freakin awesome, so bright. Dual monitors is kinda essential for what I do, Puting it into Dual View mode lets me use my old monitor to either have menu's and palletes or refrence images, and the new one is allllll workspace :twisted:

Left is photoshop, right is my favorite, Corel Painter.

Oh yeah, and Oblivion looks AMAZING on it, too bad it only runs ok, New step is that Geforce 7800 GS video card, should give my AGP system a good last stand.

I'm running a dual-monitor setup with both my laptop at work and my laptop at home. At work it's kind of boring, because I'm using a 21" CRT, but at home I have a 20" LCD. :twisted:

I also run the 20" LCD through the DVI port on my docking station -- makes it nice and sharp.

It's sweet having a 1600x1200 LCD and a 1400x1050 LCD at the same time. 8)

Yeah, DVI kicks analogs ass.

Oblivion is awesome, and HIGHLY addictive, I keep finding myself saying, "just one more quest". Just with the visuals alone I'd say its worth picking up. If its for PC make sure you have a good video card, My 3 year old Quadro 3000 can run it ok, but I have to turn the grass off.

Nice.
I noticed Oblivion before I noticed that there were two monitors. Two friends both bought new PC's just to play it. One was showing up occassionally at the office for several days without even showering...only to disappear in the afternoon.
It's also nice that the LCD monitors use SO much less power than the CRT's.
