Spoiler for It's 4 inches thick too:

Nice. What's the res and what happened to your old monitor?

Skillers · Sat Feb 05, 2011 5:00 pm

1920x1200. It's a HP ZR24W (IPS panel, looks amazing)

Still have my old monitor, just wanted a new one that wasn't the cheapest most awful Dell panel in existence, plus more space is always nice. This was actually my Christmas present, except it was out of stock until last week, so I've only just got it.

Schlurbi and Aaron will be disappointed by the very suggestive title.

Nice monitor, can I has your old one?

Skillers · Sat Feb 05, 2011 5:10 pm

Don't see why you'd want it, it's terrible

Si · Sat Feb 05, 2011 5:19 pm

Does the old one still have something living on the surface?

More monitor space = better for FL Studio (I can spread things out better).

I think that was actually my previous one, Si, not sure.

Also, Hawke, pfffft.

It's a nice big one

I do miss my thirty...

Actually I miss my 24 too. I'm stuck with a 16. But this 16 inch is 1920x1080.

Small screen, high res (Y)

It is kind of nice, but I do have to wear my glasses when I code on it.

Skillers · Sun Feb 06, 2011 11:50 am

That's some crazy dot pitch. I didn't even think you could get monitors in that res at that size.

azcn2503 · Sun Feb 06, 2011 1:30 pm

It's the screen on my Dell Studio XPS 16. I chose the top model at the time (the one with a BD-ROM and 1080p LED screen). The screen part was £300 on top of the standard 1366x768 screen but I am glad that I chose this one instead of the lower resolution one.

Skillers · Mon Feb 07, 2011 6:47 pm

Bought some new speakers and...

Spoiler for Turns out Hawke was right...:

Also, very definitely recommend Logitech X210s - absolutely incredible speakers for £25.

Pffft

So yeah I'm just going through the forum search looking at topics about monitors lol.

I seriously miss my thirty incher... wish they would do an LED backlit version.

Skillers · Tue May 10, 2011 10:31 am

Yeah, it's annoying you can't get an IPS/PVA monitor with LED backlighting for any reasonable amount of money (I believe the Apple ones are IPS with LED backlighting, but they cost twice as much as most monitors).

azcn2503 · Tue May 10, 2011 11:29 am

Hmm not bad. £920. If I had a little bit more money... I would get one. They do appear to be the best on the market for pixel density, image quality, etc. We'll see.

Skillers · Tue May 10, 2011 11:40 am

The pixel density should be the same as all the other screens at the same size/resolution

azcn2503 · Tue May 10, 2011 12:42 pm

I don't know of any other 27 inch 2560x1440 monitors.

Update: OK I found some others but it looks like Apple are the only ones doing LED backlighting.

Update: not turning up today.

Skillers · Tue May 10, 2011 5:06 pm

Ah, I wasn't aware they did one of those, I just thought it was the standard 24" and 30" screens with the 27" being the 24" res.

azcn2503 · Tue May 10, 2011 6:30 pm

It was a surprise to me also
