    Dell U2711

    You can return it for whatever reason you want. You have 30 days to decide. I have returned many things to Dell, monitors included. I'm in Toronto as well. Just call them and tell them you want to return it. They will email you a RMA form and you can take it to any UPS store, in my case...

    2560 x 1600 vs 32" LCD TV 1920 x 1080

    I hear you about the density especially in RTS. I'm just trying to determine if that added benefit is worth the $$$$ spent on always buying the latest and greatest video cards...

    2560 x 1600 vs 32" LCD TV 1920 x 1080

    Scaling with the 3007 looks like %$#%^. GPU costs are nuts just bought a couple of GTX580s to turn up the eye candy, and in a short time they will be worth next to nothing. This game gets old after a while.

    2560 x 1600 vs 32" LCD TV 1920 x 1080

    My monitor saga continues. I have been looking to see if there exists a replacement for my Dell 3007 @ 2560 x 1600. FPS shooters look amazing, but I have to continue to stay cutting edge in terms of video cards to play with any eye candy on. RPG like Dragons Age etc can be rough because some...

    Acer B273HU 27" 16:9

    I'm in Toronto and the only places that sell this charge a restocking fee for returns and some won't accept returns unless the monitor is defective. The 2709W has been on sale constantly up here. I bought it for $ 599.00 CDN free shipping. Some people don't feel the input lag but I sure did...

    Acer B273HU 27" 16:9

    Do you notice any input lag at all? I've got a Dell 3007WFP and the response & input lag are fine. I tried the 27" Dell 2709 and it had horrible input lag. The mouse felt like it was moving through quicksand. How do you find the Acer. I'd love to get one to try out, but that's not possible...

    Dell 2709W

    I've had my 2709W for a few days now. On sale for $699 in Canada. Mine is Rev04. I'm coming from a Dell 3007WFP, it was getting tough for me to read @ 2560x1600 and tougher to keep up with gaming at said resolution. That being said my impressions are that the 2709W feels sluggish compared to...

    24" 27" 30" LCD / Monitor Help

    I currently have a Dell 3007 30", to game at 2560 x 1600 requires a lot of horsepower (280GTX SLI for me). My question is that when I upgrade next round, if I go to a 27" 1920 x1200 display (needing less GPU power) will I "miss" the 30" gaming experience. I'm also contemplating getting a good...

    Replacing the mic on the Razer HP-1 Barracuda headset for $21

    Big thanks to the original poster for this solution. I tried it and it works beautifully. The replacement mic picks up a even a whisper without any problems. Great for late night gaming. Being from the great white north, the only thing that changes in the setup is where to get the removable...
