Dell 2405FPW UltraSharp Flat Panel Monitor


Recommended Posts

I'd like to add. Screen arrived!!! 7.50AM this morning, after ordering Monday afternoon. Absolutely fantastic, this thing is mammoth!!! :D

Keeping my fingers firmly crossed as there aren't any dead pixels yet. Also, the backlight seems completely uniform. Only problem is I have a slight slant: the screen sags to the right a bit. Must be a stand issue: reckon it can be fixed easily.

10/10. Mikebuzz is da bomb! I'll wing yet another tenner you way as soon as my credit card bill clears mate! :)

Thats great news, my two are going to be arriving tomorrow and I cant wait. If only I could stop drooling at the thought.

:D

Actually, I hope an X800 can run two 1920x1200 behemoths?!?!

Just to add my support for Mike, my monitor should be here tomorrow [thursday]

Got my shipping confirmation last night.

Cheers Mike and your 30 quid was sent your bank account as discussed.

i cant wait to order one for me :)

Here's a couple of pics. Have taken one with my shuttle next to it and the other next to a 17" tft. Also, I've thrown a cd into the pic to get an idea of how ENORMOUS this thing is. Please excuse the *ahem* pink wallpaper: I'm set up in my lil sis' room atm (don't ask).

G'mornin' chaps

My one arrived a Liverpool docks at 6AM today; most probably get it tomorrow.

Salivating also :)

Check this out: http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=879544

My system specs are:

AMD 3200 Whinchester

Asus AV8 Mobo (AGP)

Radeon 9800 Pro 128mb

Dell 2001FP tft

250 Maxtor SATA HD

1Gig PC4000 Crucial Ballistix Ram

CDROM and DVDROM burners

Various flight sim hardware all running on Win XP Pro.

My 9800 Pro is taxed running my flight sims at 1600x1200, and making the higher native res jump to 1920x1200 on the Dell 24", will tax it even further. ANy recomendations on a good graphics card/which way I should go?

I was thinking of a GT 6800 card; there's lots of talk about PCI boards and cards, but from what I have read there does not seem to be a big improvment in performance and sticking with AGP would save me the cost of a new PCI mobo...What do you HArdware dones think?

Thanks

looks nice, and maby a bit on the expencive side....only thing i dont think looks to good is the stand, it just seems a little elongated

How do you mean by "elongated"? You know the monitor can be raised and lowered. If you lower it to its lowest setting, it practically touches the base.

EDIT: do you mean length-ways?

Just a quick post to say thanks to Mike for getting this all sorted out.

I just missed out on the 2 for 1 deal, but I'm more than happy with the price for a single monitor so went ahead with that instead.

The Dell sales contact seemed a bit swamped yesterday but she did e-mail me before the end of the day and her assistant has got my order confirmed and into the system this morning so everything is looking good :)

I added to Mike's PayPal account up front as a gesture of faith and shame on anyone that doesn't chip in at least something by the time they get their monitors as Mike deserves credit for getting this deal out into the open.
