Ya'll seen The Witcher 2? That **%* looks beast.

same here. i want nothing bigger than 24" (pause) with 1080p res, 2ms response time and 120hz, under 400 if possible. i dont really care for IPS panels because i literally don't use this pc for anything other than gaming

Is it just me or did SP1 slurp up some HDD space. Took atleast 4-5 gigs from my SSD

edit: NVM went away some how. 3 gigs of space just returned out of no where.

Is 120hz really worth it? I was thinking about that too. The sweet spot for me is 24-25".

Ran disk clean up from the system tools in the start menuAfter if loads up the you should see a option in the bottom left hand corner with the admistrative badge click it then from their select all the possible clean up options and click clean up. It only cleaned up a gig but then in a few hours it just magically most of it came back.

good deal, it got about 3 gigs for me.
I'm glad you said something because I wouldn't of even noticed it. I read somewhere that SSDs perform best when less than half of it's space is occupied and I only have a 60 gig one. I need to grab a bigger one this summer

[slab_diaz]

^ thats a pretty good monitor

... . my only concern is that it has a really wobbly base, after a while you'll notice that the screen is tilting a bit to either side.

take a look at the bx2250. it is like a smaller version of the px2370. its also an LED, size is smaller by 1.5" but the specs are almost the same and has lower power consumption.
