So I just got a new Monitor

Post by Hearly »

I had a gateway 24in 1920x1200 for around 5 years, I decided with part of the tax return to upgrade so after looking at a lot of things, I was thinking about going to a 27in 2550x1440 monitor or a 120hz+ 27 in 1920x1080... after reading all the reviews and looking at how much I had to spend, I went with the Asus 144hz Monitor.

I got it last night, and I have to say it's sweet, the 144hz vs 60hz is so much nicer, anyone who says you can't notice it is full of BS.. I'm actually thinking about getting the Nvdia 3d glass's and the IR for it, but I personally prefer the Passive vs the active glass's so I"m kind of waiting to see if they eventually bring them out as passive..

Still looking for an easy WYSIWYG html/web editor like Frontpage used to be.
