Krosigrim Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 I only paid $710 USD in total for my 32'I have a 32" also, but it looks larger. And yea, I'm just looking at the actual screen, not the entire monitor. Image Shack is acting up, so I cant upload a pic, but it is an Olevia, that cost me about 550 dollars.

I love this thing, and the price was right. It even came down to 500 this Christmas season...
GodPigeon Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 Nice deal. What model number is that? 32" would be way too big for me. I saw a 30" Apple Cinema Display at the store and it was enormous.http://shop.bjs.com/Sharp-32--34--16-9-Wid...1VVviewprod.htm I caught it on while it was on sale for $649, so in total, 710 was all i paid. And with the resolution at 1366x768, everything looks great. PS2 gmes with the composite cable on 480p look EFFIN GREAT! Especially Tekken 5. It seems big at first, but after a while, its gonna seem normal. I have a 32" also, but it looks larger. And yea, I'm just looking at the actual screen, not the entire monitor.

Gryph Posted January 1, 2008 Author Posted January 1, 2008 Oh it's an actual TV, I thought it was some jumbo sized monitor. Mine is a monitor so it doesn't have those inputs and outputs. It just has HDMI in (an HDMI->DVI converter to get DVI input), VGA in, and component in. But on the flip side this things max resolution is 1920x1200.
ken_cinder Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 Don illMatiX are those Logitech X-530's I see? I just got a set myself. Oh and my TV - http://global.acer.com/PRODUCTS/lcd_tv/spec_at3220a.htm
Ahmad89 Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 Do you connect all of your stuff to your 32" or just your consoles. I wish i could connect everything.
OverlordMondo Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 I have a 29" (maybe 32", don't remember) LCD something something fancy ass acronym TV. Got it for about 600$. I use it very often for my PC, it's easy. I don't really know too much about how LCD monitors compare to CRT, but I've had nothing resembling a problem or picture quality loss on my LCDs. Though, I do have pretty bad eyesight...

Oh and my TV - http://global.acer.com/PRODUCTS/lcd_tv/spec_at3220a.htmyea i got em cheap. And thats a Nice TV. THe only Problem i have with My TV is the Lack of a DVI Port =\, Which that one has. fr the same price Do you connect all of your stuff to your 32" or just your consoles. I wish i could connect everything.Everything. Its the center of my whole "Media Center" I gotta Take an updated Picture to show you guys how it has grown. lol

But on the flip side this things max resolution is 1920x1200.my TV can go that high via DVI-HDMI but for some reason the Image looks like crap that way. I can only get perfect quality through the VGA-VGA. EDIT: For the Record, i cant stand 50 cent, but i still had to hear the album.
Weirdy Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 Since you're now using LCD, you might want to use cleartype. http://www.microsoft.com/typography/ClearTypeInfo.mspx
Gryph Posted January 1, 2008 Author Posted January 1, 2008 I don't need to use ClearType. The fonts look as good and clear like on my CRT.
Krosigrim Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 Thats a good TV, My sister has it. My only beef with that TV is that its ugly. lol and the Controller Response has to be the worst ive ever seen in my LIFE!Oh-man your telling me. there are plenty of inputs, but you can only go one way. So sometimes you hit input... and it doesn't register, and you hit it again, but then they both register, and you pass it... and you gotta cycle through the inputs just to get to where you were going. This is the exact one I have and I don't think it is ugly... Do you connect all of your stuff to your 32" or just your consoles. I wish i could connect everything.Hell I got the TV, computer, And 2 systems connected. Until I get yet another hookup. Then Ill have 3 systems. Weird thing is, it says 2 component ports, but it doesn't.
GodPigeon Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 Since you're now using LCD, you might want to use cleartype. http://www.microsoft.com/typography/ClearTypeInfo.mspxno need. everything looks great nowi just need to upgrade my Video card so i can play NFS:MW more often
ken_cinder Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 /me cringes at the number of icons on your desktop. You people scare me, the desktop pack-rats........ My TV only has my consoles hooked up to it, and other than when I get to use those, it's a 32" TREEHOUSE HDTV! That damn channel is on 90% of the time the TV is on. I've been thinking about trying to find a long enough DVI-D cable to reach, and a wireless keyboard. The computer and TV are too far apart for playing games otherwise.Currently working on a Supergun that uses the VGA on my TV, I've done a hack job to see if it works and it does, awesome that it accepts 15khz RGB over the VGA port, almost no computer monitors accept below 27khz.
Fatal Rose Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 Yeah, I am not into having a plethora of icons on my desktop either.
