For those of you who bought one of these monitors what resolution and refresh rate do you use? 1280 x 1024 works just right for me and I have always used 85hz as the fresh rate. I changed that value this evening to a staggering 180hz, wow is this high too high? All my old crappy monitors could only manage ~80hz.
I have one and i run it at 1600 x 1200 @ 75hz. have a search for the monitor driver for your model, you should be able to find one, i did for my 101/sf jobbie.
i have the p1500, 90hz seems to be the best for 1280*1024, while 85hz for 1600*1200. Im annoyed though, been using it so long at this refresh that Ive started to notice flickering and headaches again... you get used to the refresh after a while, need to put it higher but the monitor wont go any higher :(
i got the crapper model, 50.101sf running 1600x1200 @ 81hz :) doesn't flicker in my opinion, but everyone's eyes are different.
at60hz i cant stare at a monitor
I got the 'official drivers' there is a check box in the monitor options which prevents it from running out of spec. So I wacked it upto 90hz the highest it would go for this res :)
with my old monitor, 1024*768 didnt flicker at 75hz... now im used to this p1500 @ 85/90hz, EVERY monitor I see at below 85hz I notice the flickering instantly :( and same with 85hz but it takes much longer to notice...
85hz is cool for me :)
1600x1200 @ 85Hz, this was a great purchase (I drove round to save the delivery cost too heh).
1280x960 @ 85Hz here. Anything below and i can see it flicker.
Same as KeZZeR on a P1500 here. 1280x1024 is a nono for me, I like my circles round and my squares square:).
Rich :¬)
1024x768 @ 60hz here
