My new Acer X233H monitor being enjoyed by my 9-year old kid (connected to a 14" 16:10 laptop; on a wall is a 22" 16:10 LCD TV)

I'm using a VGA connector to the laptop's Intel GMA X3100 IGP. Using the monitor's native res.

Amazing how even a 4670 will beat our X19xx!

It's either the Acer or the Samsung 2333SW. Got the Acer as its readily available in the city where I'm at right now. I read all the Newegg reviews on the Acer X233H and most were positive as bang-for-the-buck unit. Will post some impressions later ...

Here's what I bought just hours ago, guys!


Acer x2333h. 23". Can't wait to try this at home this weekend!

It has VGA, DVI and HDMI.

@suiken -- will try to see if it has 1:1 feature.

@Paradigm-- 19x12 is 16:10, no? Is your X1950XT still alive?

Btw, I'll be replaying old games on 1920x1080 (COD, COD2, COD4), HL series for the time being.

How will these oldies (4:3 and 16:10 aspect ratios) play on a 16:9 monitor?

Well, if an X300 can, I think my X1900XT can also. thanks :)

x300? You mean integrated graphics? Is it as old as an X1900XT?

Hello, all!

I'm planning on moving from 1440x900 19" LCD to a 23" 1920x1080 tomorrow. I'm a PC gamer. Will a 512MB X1900XT card (my current use) scale to 1920x1080 well? Thanks for any opinions!

Thanks for the info, guys! I'll order one right away!

Hi, guys! I just upgraded to an X1900XT from a 7900GS a few weeks ago. I was able to complete MW2 on its highest settings on my 1440x900 19" Viewsonic. Will I be able to do the same with L4D2?

Video Card: Palit 6600GT PCIe 128MB
Driver: 163.75
Monitor: VS VG1930wm (1440x900 native)
Centered Output: NOT Working
Fixed Aspect Ratio Scaling: NOT Working

It shows a white garbled screen when I apply the FARS option.

It worked like a charm on my LCD! It even worked on a 17" CRT that I sold by convincing the buyer how good the monitor still is after using this tool.

:)

Thanks, Bongo! I downloaded the tool already and will try it when I return home after my trip.

Thank you also for the welcome! :)

With my recent purchase of my first LCD monitor a few days ago (ViewSonic VG1930wm), I'm really excited about entering the world of WS gaming. So far I'm just playing old DX9 games but I'm satisfied.

I want to try out this tool but I noticed that this was designed for non-WS LCD. Can I still ...
