Admin Update 19-Nov-09:
I am working to overhaul the Master Monitor List. Going to stop doing the individual monitor pages, and expand the info on the list itself. I have added a column for 57Hz support. You can see it by clicking on the "Monitors" link in the left nav.

KNOWN WORKING AND NOT WORKING MONITOR LIST FOR 5040x1050 @ 57HZ

HUGE thanks to allanstrings for starting this idea. You can find his original message/idea in the third post down.


When you are 100% sure one way or another please post in this format ...

Samsung 2043BWX

PROBLEM MODEL:
Acer P241wb

Any additional information about the symptoms/functionality of the monitors would be greatly appreciated.

Original Message from allanstrings ...

I recently upgraded my multi-monitor setup to include a DTH2G, and I love it, but one of my monitors cannot handle the 57hz refresh apparently. I have 2 Chimei CMV-221D 22" TN displays that work great, never had a bit of trouble from them and they run at just about any refresh i have tossed at them, and I have an Asus VW223T 22" that works very well at 60hz, but cannot handle anything else, despite the manufacturer's data saying it will do 56-75hz. When running at 57hz, it has terrible ghosting that is visible for over 5 seconds on bright colors, and the backlight flickers rapidly sometimes. I have never seen these problems when it was running standalone.

I am going to move the Asus to the far right of my setup and use it for a TV/console display, and get another monitor for my center spot... however I haven't been able to get another matching Chimei (Newegg doesn't stock them anymore, and Ebay scares me for a monitor). With the Asus' specs claiming it can handle 57hz, and clearly unable to, I am worried about purchasing another monitor blindly. Can anyone vouch for a 22" that is confirmed working at this refresh?

We should start a list of known working and non-working models to help out those who are system building so they can avoid this pitfall...

The "known working" list is a MUST, thanks for that :)
Hopefully I'll be able to add the ViewSonic VX1940w (19" but 1680x1050) to it soon... *crossing fingers and counting days before the mailman's coming*

I can confirm that my VW198T would boot into Windows fine. Except that two of them were DOA, so only the left most showed. I could swap cables and pick up the 2nd and 3rd images for verification. Assuming it's 57Hz on the windows desktop, that one was good.

I believe the Samsung SM-2253LW will work, I set 1680x1050@57Hz and dualhead [email protected] I believe my 9800GT drivers are stopping me from confirming 3x1680x1050.

Paddy, I've ordered a 280 so will hopefully confirm on Monday. In the meantime feel free to prune my posts.
