    New Samsung 193P, shimmering/text color shift problem

    I just got a replacement 193P from CompUSA for a dead pixel, and the shimmering problem is much improved! I can't see any color change in the text on this site no matter how fast I scroll, and now the shimmering on the other linked site is slightly green instead of very red as before. The...

    2005 Post Your Workstation

    This thread is like a substitute for having a girlfriend to tell us how messy our workstations are, since a lot of people seem to be cleaning up before taking pics :cool:

    Monitor mini-carts?

    I've been looking at arms for a while, and the one that would do what I want doesn't seem to be available. I just want to have my LCD in front of my CRT and move it out of the way when I'm gaming. The problem is, the arm has to fold up so the lcd is very close or directly in front of the post...

    25 ms Gaming LCD

    I just got a 193P, and I agree that you pay for gaming to get good image quality. For reading and coding, nothing beats my 193P. I am much more productive now because I don't get as much eye strain. But now I'm looking for an LCD arm so I can move it out of the way and use my CRT for gaming...

    Which Samsung LCD is better?

    The tough part about comparing the 173p or 193p is that you need to have it hooked directly in to a computer with no multiplexer so you can run MagicTune and move its brightness up from the factory default of 50%. I finally found a Media Center PC at Fry's that had a 193p directly plugged in...

    New Samsung 193P, shimmering/text color shift problem

    I see a slight green tint when I scroll very quickly and look closely for it on this site, and I also see the red "shimmer" on that other site. When scrolling normally or not scrolling, all text is white. Do you have cleartype turned on? That might help. I just got my 193p yesterday, and...

    help me out please. should i make the evolution to LCD or stick with CRT !URGENT!

    I'm going from CRT to LCD this Christmas, reason #1 being to reduce eye strain while coding for days at a time. After reading this: http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/other/print/lcd-guide.html I realized that the decision today for people like me most concerned about eye strain must be *VA...

    Fry's - 256 MB PC2700 for $3.99 after MIR & 160 GB for $49.99

    I looked on fatwallet.com and they didn't list Fry's in the stores listing. Can you post a link? Is there a limit on that RAM? I could use 4 sticks of 256.
