It's horses for courses as they say, and this horse wears good glasses!. My now-retired IIyama has the same visible size as yours and 1280x960 was very borderline, but 1152x868 was great (try it if you can, it might be a happy medium). But 1152 looks slightly pixellated on my new 16" visible, so I'll be using 1280x960 when I can work out how! Well, 1152 works, but i must lower refresh rate from 85 to 75 Hz. And maybe i would get used to it, but it's still small... I used to use 1024x768 in my 15" CRT days. It's Ok for web-browsing, and I play most games at 1024x768 even now as above this is either too slow (my PC that is) or I can't tell the difference. Same here--- If you like 1024 on your CRT, I *guess* you'll love it on a 15" LCD. I've no idea when it comes to colour representation, but if it wasn't for the response time issue I would have bought a 17" LCD this week. I've just bought a 17" CRT to replace a 5 year old 17" CRT, but I only intend using it until I hear better things about LCDs and games. I heard 20ms was the ideal MAXIMUM refresh as this allows 50fps which is good enough for most people as long as its sustained. Another thing I recently read about LCDs was about dead pixels. The only company that guarantees NO dead pixels is CTX. that's another new thing i'll explore further---thanks |
