Samsung for the win.

Vote for Eizo here.

What metric are everyone using for the 'best monitor'? If it's colour reproduction then it'd be dell ultrasharps, necs or hps, on this metric acers are terribad. If it's another metric please enlighten me.

Anyone got a benchmark for Fallout 3 with the GTX 460? Haven't found any...

Ugh, this isn't COMPUTER illiteracy that much, but here it goes anyway. Guy1: OMG GUY2 STOP HACKING Guy2: I'm not. Guy3: YEAH DUDE I'LL REPORT YOU Me: Lol, you can't report people on MW2. Guy3: Yeah you can, it's on their Steam page dumbass! Me: That's for reporting explicit content on their profile page... Guy3: NO ITS NOT Me: (i explain what VAC is, and that its a cheat detection system, you dont report to ban people). Guy4: I use punkbusters anyway, loads better than VAC.

My uncle is gonna pay £900 to rescue his photos off of a hard drive because apparently they need to use a special technique.

[QUOTE=leontodd;23937587]My uncle is gonna pay £900 to rescue his photos off of a hard drive because apparently they need to use a special technique.[/QUOTE] So?

Yeah, so? Could you fix it for him leontodd? If not, then if he values the photos enough to pay £900 quid to recover them, that's his decision and certainly not a computer illiteracy thing.

[QUOTE=leontodd;23937587]My uncle is gonna pay £900 to rescue his photos off of a hard drive because apparently they need to use a special technique.[/QUOTE] That sort of depends why he has to do it. If the drive is dead, then that's not computer illiteracy at all. He just wants his stuff back.

lol inb4 bad review storm.

This all reminds me of a time I went to a friends house and he convinced me to play Mw2 with him and 2 other guys. well me and him were wining and one of the others started saying that we are hacking :downs: so me and my friend did our best to tell him you cant hack in a split screen game or that if you can it be useless.

[QUOTE=Mattk50;23931929]600 bucks for 19 inches? crt or lcd, it seems like a a waste of money. how much do you guys pay for your screens? i have a 24" acer LCD and the blacks are excellent in my eyes. it was 100-200$ if i remember correctly.[/QUOTE] CRT. if you ever use something better than an Acer, you'll never be able to go back to that shit.

How can you be sold out of software anyway?

The whites are a bit dull, but it's not shitty, I've seen shittier from other companies. I have to say, though, I saw a 27" HP that looked amazing, it was so clear and crisp. It was also $500, and I couldn't justify it, nor had it...

[QUOTE=Phoenix Wright;23890646]I'm not really good with computers, and everyone here is making all the PC repair guys sound like dicks.

You don't randomly create your PC knowledge out of thin air and say dumb shit like, "Yeah, the new GTX 200 cards don't even support shiny textures." or "Stick with the Pentium 4's, they're faster than the useless more-than-one-core processors they have now." Yes, I've heard people say both of those.

[QUOTE=Odellus;23946938]aww, sad because I said your monitor was doo doo qq[/QUOTE] You never said anything about my Samsung. And I really wish people (Odellus) would shut up about "Acer is shit" and get their heads out of their asses because its not. You want to see a shitty LCD? Go back to 1998 and get one. They were poorly and unevenly lit, had a ridiculously slow response speed, poor colors, and bad contrast. THAT is a bad monitor.
