How much desktop space do you have?

Featured Replies

I just bought a 19inch LG LCD monitor, and I am running dual monitor with my 19inch crt flatscreen. All I have to say, Im glad I waited for the speakers and went with a new monitor instead.

Interesting. Sounds like the exact opposite of mine. Bulkier depth, smaller screen size. Doesn't even have OSD, only lights to adjust.

I use a single 19"... my roommate uses 2 21" flatscreens

 

I'd really like to get an extra... I've been feeling the need for an extra since I've been writing more code... but I really lack the desk space =P (and money... but hey)

Monitor 1: 1600*1200 @ 75Hz

 

Monitor 2: 1024 * 768 @ 72Hz

 

Can't remember if mine is 19" or 21" :confused:

i just use a 15" flat screen! :)

 

Everywhere I use a computer regularly has a 15” flat panel monitor, so because of that and to save money that’s what I got! Also I don’t find I need massive monitors as I am quite close to them, also im not that fussy with screen size.

 

it would still be cool to have a massive screen, but wait until i have the money to waste on one!

not being a windows bofin, how do I find out My screen res?

 

I CAN tell you that the monitor on this machine is a 14" and all the others are 17", but the pixel res on this one`s better than the others.

right click on the desktop > properties

 

but thats windows, so im not sure, what are you on linux or mac?

 

also im guessing you don’t know from when you bought it!

in that case mine`s set to 1152 X 864 pixels

 

and I`m in High Color 16 bit.

 

thnx for that :)

 

oh and I didn`t buy this one, it was donated as an atempt to stop me using my Amigas all the time :)

well thats quite an ok resolution monitor.

 

what refresh rate do you have

right click desktop > properties > settings > advance, somewhere around there!!

 

also 16bit colour is quite low, see if you can increase to 32bit...

just go where you found 16 bit and it should be a drop down menu.

LOL, nice one lucky guy.

my card is only a 4mb card if I rem correctly

 

60hz here as refresh, it`s a RIVA 128 chip on an ASUS V3000 series V2.06

 

but hey! it`s great for a freebie :)
