    Dell Dell 2005FPW

    i don't agree at all w/ the color accuracy comment. i just calibrated both my my ea231wmi and 2005fpw.. the 2005fpw ended up with average dE of 0.14 which was better than the nec's 0.17.. pretty damn good when a 5 year old monitor beats a brand new one.

    Color calibration for dummies?

    it definitely makes the signal go through more circuitry, but if it adds any meaningful amount of latency.. not sure :confused:

    NEC 23" IPS EA231WMi

    i'm betting it's the video itself..now your monitor is just good enough that you can see the gradation in dark tones. i certainly noticed this with a lot of my compressed movies >.<

    NEC 23" IPS EA231WMi

    it looks cool but those portrait monitors give me mass eye strain since ClearType won't work right in portrait mode >.< has the fuzzyness of ClearType text in portrait mode been something you've noticed?

    16:9 vs 16:10

    it is not possible to evaluate 16:9 vs 16:10 and objectively conclude one is better than another. every argument here has been some permutation of a comparison of the basic differences of each format.. 16:10 good: it's taller bad: it's not as wide 16:9 good: it's wider bad: it's not as tall...

    NEC 23" IPS EA231WMi

    the color shift is only visible on test patterns so subjectively speaking you may like the ea231wmi just as much or more than the wuxi, given the wmi's higher contrast. out of the box calibration is awesome, too.

    i don't know why that one guy was talking about low contrast :confused: results of my calibration: http://i48.tinypic.com/30a6o1l.jpg

    Ugh, torn between HP LP2475w, Dell U2410, and NEC EA231WMi

    another thing to keep in mind is the HP and Dell are both wide gamut, so the colors will be absolutely wrong for any non color managed app (which is 99.9% of what's out there). it will work in photoshop, and you can jump through hoops to get web pages to show up right (firefox color management...

    bottled water + microfiber cloth. the microfiber makes a big difference.

    Color calibration for dummies?

    icc profiles include a 3d LUT. this provides the info necessary for both gamma correction and gamut transform. graphics cards only have a 1d LUT though, so you can fix gamma curves that way (ie system wide)..but not gamut. that's what color managed apps have over non-color managed. still, the...

    Secondary Moniter only in black and white?

    i'm really interested in knowing what happened here. if the video card drivers really applied a desaturation to the whole screen it may have done so with a pixel shader. that would be insanely awesome bc thats what my friend and i are working on right now--applying a shader to the full screen...
