No. Mine works fine. Using Cat 4.11. If you are make sure your DVI connection is snug any loose connection can cause any sorts of problems.

hey guys, quick question....how long is the DVI cord that comes with this monitor?

i just ordered one earlier (took me a few more days than i hoped, but should be here next tuesday or wensday...i hope)

I need to know the length, because i have VGA extensions going to my computer, and im going to have to buy a DVI extension....but they dont recommend extending it more than 15ft, and although thats not a problem (anymore) i still need to figure out if im going to buy a 10ft extension or a 6ft one....

anyway, please reply soon, i want to order the DVI extension tonight.....heh

i can't answer your question about the length of the standard cable but i can say that i have a friend who needed a DVI run of about 70 feet, and i think he used some cat5 ethernet wiring to accomplish this because of the expense of such lengthy DVI cable... point being, you can probably go longer than 15 feet without hurting the digital signal...

though i never did hear back about how well the hacked-up solution worked :rofl: :s

Yeah no problems here either, 2001FP is on an Gigabyte's X800 XT PE(DVI), super pretty, problems free.

However, i did also run 2001FP on my older card GF3 Ti-200(DVI). i did notice it kinda flashes to a blank screen every 5 seconds when i was playing America's Army @ 1280 X 960. But it doesnt do that if i play at lower resolution, i still dunno why tho.

Dont use that ti-200 anymore, so dont care, haha :D

so yea....how long is the DVI CABLE that comes with it? :blink:

I have one sitting in front of me and I'm pretty sure it's 6ft. I'm off to class right now but you can PM me later and have me check.

Regarding extending:

As long as you put powered repeaters every once in a while down a strand of DVI, it can go forever, in theory. It's digital so the signal is really easy to clean up -- you just need a device that will do that (has to be powered).

man I want this but i hate the leg/stand thing.

Is this wall mountable? without buying anything extra...

Without buying anything extra? No.

What don't you like about the stand though? It looks sharp, allows the display to swivel 90 degrees in either direction (providing easy access to the plugs), can tilt the monitor a few degrees horizontally, and can raise/lower the panel about 8 inches.

That's a crazy price.?:pinch::

    • Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.
    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.
