Dell UltraSharp 2005FPW 20" Widescreen LCD

[Frank]

The 25% Dellf coupons I believe only work in the US. I don't think they work with International orders.

My offer still stands. If someone gets me the shipping dimensions I can get a quote on sending one from the US to the UK.

*Whines 3rd thread i need a 25% Coupon... pretty please? For me? :blush: There $1,100 USD in the UK (?616) a 25% off would be awesome!!*

Does it come with a DVI Cable... I think my 9800 Pro 128MB Might have one... not sure. I'll use DVI when I get one though.

Are most of the ones shipping now fault free? Because with my luck (Or lack of) Ill get a dodgy one and have get a replacement.

Does Dell UK Offer the same policy regarding Dead Pixels? LIke if there is one you ring up and ask for another?

Those 25% coupons only work in the U.S.:((

As for the dead pixel policy dell is the best when it comes to dead pixels.

They'll send you a new monitor even if you have 1 dead pixel. They even pay for shipping both ways:)) Thats how it works in the U.S atleast.

So does someone has a 15% Coupon? That knocks it down to ?541 ($1,000 USD ish)

How do you know if you have a bad pixel? Also, I have a Dell Dimension 4300- is there anything extra I need to buy for this monitor to work properly or does everything come with it?

Uh no, it's a different method of connecting LCD monitors than VGA.

[Enisada]

Oh no, the Dell.ca and Dell.com don't have the monitor listed on their sites anymore. Have they discontinued this product already??

[Symbiotic Hat]

Since this is a widescreen monitor. When you play a game that only supports 4:3 ratio does it put a side letterbox on or does it just stretch it out of perportion?

[nuscur]

it streches on default but u can letterbox it if ud like.. eariler posts in this post show how

[NY1]

DVI cable comes with it. Your videocard must have a DVI port for it to work.

Dell.com --> http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/product...ategory_id=4009

Dell.ca --> http://accessories.dell.com/sna/productdet...ategory_id=4009

Both are still avail...

Again, I want to say this is the best monitor I have ever stared at!

I love mine now that I got one with no dead pixels.

I had to replace mine 3 times to finally get one that was perfect.

Isn't the monitor made by BenQ not LG?

I know the LCD panel in it is LG but its manufactured by BenQ...

Look at alienware's 20.1 LCD... its the same as the dell :)
