Dell 2405FPW UltraSharp Flat Panel Monitor

[Tim Dorr Veteran]

I'm glad I have no interest in the 2005FPW. I do have alot interest in the 2405FPW because of tis 1920x1200 resolution. Basically this monitor will add even more space to my screen and I will not lose any screen space coming from a Dell 2001FP (1600x1200).

1900x1200 is my current monitor's res, so really you don't get much out of this one. I guess a more blurry image :p

(just trying to justify my purchase whenever I can (not that it can't do it itself!))

OK, I spoke again with Samsung and the only way this would be a BenQ panel is if Samsung sells the glass to BenQ in Taiwan. The glass with the specs above is Samsung. Samsung knows all about the Dell monitor and it's source for the TFT glass is Samsung. If BenQ is involved, it is aquiring the raw panles from Samsung. I believe the Dell panels are being assembled in China. In any case we most likely will see them go on sale soon.

Those are the specs that Samsung Engineers gave me except they said the grey-grey response on the raw panels was really 8ms.

[thomasb84]

Thnx for the info man!

So that's gonna be 24 inch with 12-16 ms response times average and 1000:1 contrast!? sounds like the best panel ever made to me... Don't you agree?

insane contrast - sweet response times - awesome resolution and great size, AND the panel is supposed to be affordable.

It's almost too good to believe I'd say, I really can't wait till this thing comes out...

[edit]

wait - didn't you say it WASN'T gonna be a BenQ panel though? those specifications are for a benq panel right - or am I not getting it...

[oddcrap]

My dad works for dell, he said at least that price :)

[Hypoxiaicon]

Maybe since ive had such a raw deal with my 2005FPW (had 1 Replacement which was worse then my original which has been taken back, awaiting 2nd replcement) I wonder if Dell would offer me a free upgrade for a such poor Dell 2005FPW's they are sending out.

lol, wouldn't that be nice! :laugh:

[Pink Floyd Veteran]

hmm cuty!

but 16ms :/

[thomasb84]

Hmm I think the specs above might be wrong, unless someone has absolute proof. I read on another forum that THIS is the panel they're gonna use:

http://www.samsung.com/Products/TFTLCD/Mon...M1/LTM240M1.htm

specs were close, but it's 700:1 contrast, nog 1000:1....

Doubt it, you're stuck with your 2005FPW.

That is old info that has not been updated. Samsung has increased the specs on the raw panels which is where the new info is coming from. They are alos selling the raw 24" panels to any one interested including possibly BEnQ. I have this info directly from the panel manufacturing team at Samsung.

585435931[/snapback]

he said at least at what price?

[akaladis Veteran]

Looks good!

On a side note, it's 16:9 not 16x9

[YBG]

he said at least at what price?

585439885[/snapback]

Yeah, what price? a grand? If so I'm going to have to pass, I already have to build a new PC + buy a Mini Mac so it looks like this won't be happening :(

[Xab]

I'm so waiting for this to come out, insurance settlements rock :cool:

[Blaine]

I wonder if they would somehow let the 2005FPW owners upgrade to the newer one and only pay the difference... :cry:

Be nice, but since when do good things like that happen? :(

[YBG]

The only reason I want this instead of just settling with a 2005FPW is because I see people who have had to trade theirs in like seven times or so to get a good one. Hypoxiaicon which number are you on like the third or something? That's crazy.

I'll wait for this monitor and see if I can get it, but first I have to get a Dell 700m..
