Need a bigger monitor

This is one of the reasons i am dying for nvidia 3d tv play to come out, playing batman aa at 1650, i was droppping from 60fps in 3d, dropping it down to 1280 made it run pretty constant at 720p.

I have to be honest i would much rather have a smooth game at a slightly lower rez, than a jerky high rez, i actually played metro 2033 on my samsung sync master at 800x600 dx10 very high at a very nice rate in 3d, it kept the aspect ratio at that rez, i really struggle with low framerates./

Would be nice to see a 30fps, and a 60fps capped options in most games now, for instance crysis would run really nice at 30fps capped with dx 10 object and motion blurring instead off flicking between 60fps and 30 fps second, it gives judder.

The release date for the PG275 beastie was set and 2nd quarter, then delayed to about now, or October.... Still there is no word or update from ASUS.

Im starting to think it may not be here for a while still, perhaps even into the next year, we would have heard something by now otherwise.

I'm thinking I might look into shipping a DLP from the states to New Zealand... Does that PAL NTSC thing matter at all ?

Hi!

I have never considered anything else than a PC screen, but this thread bumped my interest..
As far I can understand, there is an option to use LCD TV and DLP TV as screens with a PC.

How would they actually work in the role for a standard use for PC - browsing net, working with all kinds of applications (e.g. MS Ofice, Adobe Suite).
Would the image be as clear and sharp as on a PC screen? What about compatibility (I have seen a lot of complaints about DLP support in 3Dvision drivers)?
Im currently using Samsung screen that comes with 3Dvision bundle (thats my reference for clear and sharp image for standard desktop use).

I'm reading this very forum on a 60 inch Mitsubishi DLP, it takes a little getting used to, but text is very readable on it (in standard mode). The caveat is that anything below 16 pnt text in 3d mode is almost always unreadable due to the checkerboard encoding. Compatibility is much better now, but you still have to do a bit of resolution tweaking. The biggest issue is that the screen is not actually 1080p due to overscan. You'll have to use a wacky resolution. I find 1824x1026 to be the sweet zone. The biggest advantage is there is absolutely no ghosting whatsoever on the Mitsubishi. You can pick the highest contrast thing in the universe and it'll pop right out at ya :)

thanks for the reply. it sounds like a perfect solution for gaming, but since most of the time at my PC I spend in 2D mode, "a standard" 2D quality is a must for me.
besides, I tried to look for DLP TV sets and couldnt find any. probably this technology is available only in North America and not in Europe.
im not sure how it is in the rest of the Europe, but at least in Denmark where I currently reside - there is not a single DLP TV set available :( all we can get here is plasma or LCD.

since I havent seen any new realease info on any larger 120Hz PC 3D screens, im considering to buy Acer screen.
according to my digging through reviews and comments it seems like an improvement over Samsung 2233rz and is actually a bit bigger (24 inches over 22 inches).

The Acer is not 24" its 23,5". I just bought the Asus 236 because the 0,5" does not matter to me but the brightness does.

The Acer: 256cd/m²
The Asus: 359cd/m²

Thats what i read.
I'm getting my Asus today, i hope its a good display. :)
