Widescreen Gaming Forum

Cool - thanks fatlazyhomer. Always seems to be something "just around the corner" that makes me hesitate when upgrading. I have not seen any 3D monitors yet either, just assuming it might be kinda nice... Especially in multi-monitor mode :shock:

2 vids out on youtube FWIW:

Now this is probably a stupid question, but if I ended up getting a setup like this, 3D gaming (which seems to be around the corner) is going to require new monitors ...

Now they are:

They look ok but I am a little disappointed, I expected smaller bezels and a sleeker look... : :cry:

2000$? Yikes.

I guess since 3 U2410 cost 1500+ brand new, thats not too much of a stretch. :?

Seemed a bit rich to me too, but I thought I better hold judgment until I see more detail. Having said that, Samsung probably think they can gouge us as no one else has a tailored "Eyefinity" or ...

Hey All,

Took a while but the much touted Samsung "Eyefinity" Monitors appear to have been demonstrated at CES - The Samsung MD230's.

FTFA:
"...The new displays are expected to be available in early 2010 from Samsung reseller and distribution channels starting at an MSRP of USD$3,099 for ...

i've tried it, works flawlessly! native support. All you need to do is change the menu to from a bottom bar to a sidebar, i think the shortcut is alt+up. It's fantastic if you use one video output on TH2G and your other dvi for another screen.. it's effectively quad screen gaming but you have 3 ...

"infamous" ... what do you mean ? ...

OK - so its been out for a while now and I have played the demo - but, has anyone tried it on TH2Go yet?

By anyone I guess I mean the infamous Paddy? Paddy - I expect even your rig is going to chug at high res with detail turned up - or am I mistaken?

Aside from this - how have people ...

I started the montitor mod

Pics will be updated here

Nice work sizerkozak. I take it you are still working on this but I am curious why you can't leave the monitor with no frame/bezel like the below screen...:




Is it a safety or power related thing???

Thanks!

:-)

Thanks Paddy - yeah I had read that but thought that the X3 screenshots looked more pronounced than pther games... Good to hear its still good though.

I agree - look pretty sweet! When playing do you notice the distorted shapes of the planets much (oval rather than spherical)...?

Thanks all for your responses.

Paddy - I had actually seen this poll and it is reassuring to some extent but as you said - still not that many responses.

I guess I really need to get some experience first so I know for sure how much I will be annoyed by it. Pitty there is no demo in ...

Hi All,

New to the forum but from what I have seen looks great! I am looking at an upgrade soon and although I had thought of a 24 WS – the appeal of the Matrox Triplehead2Go is making me think again as the price difference is not all that great and it looks very immersive!
