[QUOTE]Like its close-to-home rival Samsung, LG Electronics didn't wait for IFA to announce some of its newest creations. This being said we give you LG's E91 and D237IPS, two 23-inch Flatron series monitors which will be seen at IFA in Berlin later this week (and next week).
For starters let's talk about the E91 as this one is the immediate head-turning model due to its acryl finish, 7.2mm depth and super-thin bezel of just 4.35mm. This one also features a hanger-type hinge, a native resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, a 2ms GTG (5ms typical) response time, a dynamic contrast ratio of 10,000,000:1, a brightness of 250 cd/m2, and 170/160 viewing angles.
The D237IPS aims to impress through the use of the Film Pattern Retarder (FPR) 3D technology and of an IPS panel. This combo ensures a smooth 3D experience and higher-grade image quality. The D237IPS comes with a 2D to 3D conversion function, a native resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, a dynamic contrast ratio of 5,000,000:1, D-Sub and DVI inputs, a maximum brightness of 250 cd/m2 in 2D mode and 100 cd/m2 in 3D mode, and a stand allowing for panel rotation. Both of LG's displays have LED backlights and lack an official price tag.[/QUOTE]
While I don't care for 3D monitors so much, I'm glad that they are finally making them IPS. A big reason why the ipad and other tablets are popular is because they all use IPS panels, which is one of the most aesthetically appealing LCD's ever. TN panels and other non-IPS panel montiors make the PC industry seem crummy and low end.
How come native resolutions have stopped increasing at 1920x1080? I understand we have TV's and stuff, but as TV's get bigger and bigger monitors have sort of stopped, and to get any higher you need to get a specially made monitor or use more than one.

I have a 17" 1920x1080 screen on this notebook and I simply don't see a reason for higher resolution.

i dont know shit about monitors, what is IPS? Google isn't helping me because it's filled with the indiana public school system

you can get 2048x1596 and 2600x1600 monitors
"retarded" = "slowed"

Ridiculously good viewing angles and generally better screen quality.

I still don't get how he missed it.
Second result.

So uhm, I like it being IPS, but I'll skip on the 3D. Probably can get a normal IPS of equivalent or higher quality for less.
If only it was 3DS like 3D.
(Or is it and I didnt read it correctly?)

They haven't, but higher resolutions require more from the GPU. I'd love to have a 2600x1600 22" (I'm more interested in pixels per cm2 than size), but it would be very taxing on the GPU (which is why those res are usually on large screens, where a higher res makes a larger difference and makes the performance hit worth it).
For games that is.
From the way Windows works doesn't everything get smaller if you up the resolution? So if we went to 2600x1600 we'd either have to have much bigger screens or magnifying glasses to see shit
Or Windows could go resolution independent (do it faggots)

lol no. If you titled your head slightly you wouldn't be able to see shit.

People keep talking about higher resolution monitors, but the human eye is only capable of taking in so much. Given the distance the average person sits from a PC monitor increasing the resolution won't actually change that much realistically. The higher the resolution gets the further away you have to sit from the monitor to be able to see any real difference in quality.
I really hope it's affordable

If a monitor has high pixels/cm^2, will things in lower resolutions (Same aspect ratio) still look shitty and blurry? or will they be crisp?

It is 3D so they're marketing it at those kinds of people
Higher res means less need for AA.

Windows, by default, can scale window sizes up (and text etc)
[QUOTE=Hunt3r.j2;32006253]Higher res means less need for AA.[/QUOTE]
What's your point? Rendering at a higher resolution causes the same performance impact as using AA.
[QUOTE=Overv;32006678]What's your point? Rendering at a higher resolution causes the same performance impact as using AA.[/QUOTE]
But AA destroys quality for smoothness.
[QUOTE=Overv;32006678]What's your point? Rendering at a higher resolution causes the same performance impact as using AA.[/QUOTE]
do you want a less crisp image
[QUOTE=Sir M;32006382]Windows, by default, can scale window sizes up (and text etc)[/QUOTE]
Or get bigger screens!
No wonder you're fine with 1920x1080 on a 17" screen.
Well 2560x1600 is the limit of how high one DVI or HDMI cable can push.
HDMI 1.4 and DisplayPort address this issue.

View angles and colors are far better. Were talking orgasmic colors, like when you go back to using a normal TN LCD the brightness seems to high, the contrast is horrible, and colors are not nearly as vivid or real.
All Apple products use these by default (they know how humans react to aesthetics after all) and it's part of the reason why people are loving tablets over their laptop even though it's less powerful.
Oh baby look at the slim bezel :dance:
I'm stuck using a 15" x 15" monitor
One day, one day I will buy a new monitor..
