Any Aussies buy monitors recently that work?

Looking at the Viewsonic VX2240W now, one of the few on the list that I can get in Aus and also seem to have very thin bezel edges, from what I can read.


I can tell you that the Samsung 2243BW's work, they might be EOL though , I bought 3 about 9 months ago.

Re: Antialiasing problem

I have TH2GO set up on my Win 7 x64 system @ 5040 on 181.71 drivers. I cannot seem to use AA in any game. The drivers are suppose to force the games to run AA but I don't see it.

Does anyone have this problem?


Not on 182.5 - try those.

What driver version are you using to run TH2G on windows 7. I am attempting to get it to work with little luck so far. I just need to know what versions are working for others.

Do you guys have any trouble turning on AA in game?



I have noticed it doesn't always come on - I set it in the driver , pick the executable and pump in the settings - I always turn VSYNC on for the good it does.
