I'm thinking it's going to be about 1800 dollars. I just got a 24 inch Dell LCD and I hope it will cost that much so I know I did not make a big mistake. Got mine for $750.

I don't know what major differences they can do to the lower end models. Possibly more connections and compatability with vista. I have a 2005fpw and I paid a pretty dime for it, but I don't see how it could get better. I'm getting prepared to buy a HDTV.

I can't understand 30 inches for a monitor, i've used 24 inches and it's rediculous in itself. If your buying a 30 inch monitor, you have to be able to afford to upgrade your video cards every few months as well.

Good...God....

You know, I'm so thankful that Dell has more or less led the push of high-quality, low-price LCDs. Before Dell started selling LCDs, everything was still far more expensive. My $900 Sony 18" LCD, and everything else, plummeted when Dell started selling its 1800fps back in the day. Now, Dell alone has 24"+ monitors for less than $1k, with quick reponse times and sleek looks to boot.

Kaffra, with 2x 7800 gtx you may be able to play modern games decently, but thoes cards will be outdated in seconds if your using a resolution as high as this monitors. Games that come out in 1 year or 6 months or whatever wouldn't be abel to get good fps on this monitor with 2x 7800 gtx.

Maybe the 512 editions, can't say for myself though.

how do the specs compare to the 2005fpw? which one would have better image quality?

i was thinking of buying the 24" 2005fpw, should i wait for this?

You mean the 2405FP. You'd also need dual-link DVI support, which is only available on NVIDIA Quadro cards for example.

    • Yes, Scoop was created to promote Coreutils for Windows. You can still see early versions of their website on the Web Archive. It was a joke that nobody took seriously. Microsoft's implementation of Coreutils, however, are built in Rust.
    • Looks like EA's Star Wars Zero Company will be out this August by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Over a year ago, EA surprise announced that a team of former Firaxis members is working on a brand-new Star Wars game. Dubbed Zero Company, the title would have XCOM-like turn-based tactics gameplay as players manage a squad of professionals from all over the galaxy. Now, just ahead of an official announcement, it looks like the release date has leaked out. The upcoming Summer Game Fest presentation on Friday is when EA is supposed to show off the title's gameplay footage, with fans also expecting it to reveal a release date. However, the ever-reliable billbil-kun from Dealabs says they have already managed to find out when the game is coming out and what versions fans will have the option of purchasing. Per the leak, Star Wars Zero Company has an August 27, 2026, release date attached to it. The title is slated to release on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 with a $49.99 standard and $59.99 Deluxe edition. The leaker also adds that there won't be any early access perk attached to this special edition. Pre-orders could kick off alongside the official announcement this Friday, too. For those unfamiliar with the title, Bit Reactor is developing Star Wars Zero Company with help from Respawn Entertainment and Lucasfilm Games. The EA-published title is said to be set during the "twilight of the Clone Wars." We will have to wait and see if base building and management mechanics from the XCOM series will be present here, too. "You will step into the shoes of Hawks, a former Republic officer who leads Zero Company — an unconventional outfit of professionals for hire hailing from across the galaxy," reads the game description. "Hawks and Zero Company are recruited for an operation that pits them against an emerging threat that will consume the galaxy if left unchecked. To succeed, Hawks will lead a team of uneasy allies who must set aside their differences to overcome nearly impossible odds." You can catch the Star Wars Zero Company extended gameplay reveal at the Summer Game Fest showcase that's kicking off on Friday at 2 pm PT / 5 pm ET.
    • All their other games always had a new cast and new story, so that's not very surprising. The new dev is worrisome though.
    • New dev usually means more trash. I also despise that they censored the 1 remake.
    • Oh, they're back to making console games that actually sell consoles? Shock horror.
