I assumed Medium was 6500K and it gave the best color though it doesn't display the choices in degrees kelvin. Color, black levels, lamp, all needed adjustment to get a good picture. There is so much space here I don't know what to do with it all.ĭefault settings needed tweaking. Coming from a 19" Sony Trinitron CRT at 1152x864 to this at 1680x1050 is a night and day difference. Once I got into Windows, the first thing that came to mind was, wow this is big. I tried just the DVI at first and I got nothing (case fans at max, did not come down to normal speed which tells me the BIOS hadn't loaded and it was hanging). Out of the box I found I had to connect both the DVI and VGA to the monitor or the system wouldn't boot.
SCEPTRE x22wg-Gamer Black 22" 5ms Black to Black DVI Widescreen HDMI LCD Monitorįull specs and user reviews can be found here (). (See my HardForum post #57 for pictures and more info.)Īlright I think I have this thing figured out so i'll post an initial review.
The stand that comes with it is flimsy, but Staples has a great Neo-Flex stand that DOES work well with this monitor - and right now it's on close-out for just $30! It's even better than the Samsung 225BW's stand IMO. BTW: Both its DVI and HDMI plugs are HD capable. The Sceptre lets you have 3 graphic inputs (VGA, DVI, HDMI) at the same time, allowing you to switch between them just by clicking the "source" button.

I especially love the HDMI connection with my new PS3 and upsampling DVD player set at 1080i. I couldn't get myself to spend that kind of money right now.I've had my 22" Sceptre monitor for six weeks now and I love it.
#Dell e207wfp icc color profile upgrade#
I'll upgrade next year most likely with a BenQ 24" when they come down in price but this should do great until then. I decided to go with it because it seems like the best 22" screen and it will save me quite a few bucks. The thing I need to know though, will I be kicking myself for not getting a monitor with an HDMI port? These 22" monitors also seem to use TN panels. None of these monitors have higher than 1600x1050 resolution though, you have to pay to play to get a 1920 res and the price of admission for that is 24". Viewsonic VG2230wm 22" is $398 and looks to have good adjustability but a built-in speaker which I don't really care for. Stand is flimsy and non-adjustable though. There is also the Sceptre x22wg-Gamer which seems to be the only 22" LCD with HDMI. You can get the 22" Samsung 225BW for $380 (which has backlight bleeding) and the 22" BenQ FP222W (that is not height adjustable) for a mere $340. They save all the best stuff for the 24" and higher screens. I'm sure they are still really nice monitors but they put slightly lower grade screens and less inputs and options on them. The thing about going that route is you get what you pay for. Unless I cheap out and get a 22" for $300-400. Looks like i'll be waiting longer to get a monitor.still not seeing what I want. The Dell can come almost all the way down which is great but you can do better in a screen (or so i've read). They said the bottom of the screen sits 6" above the desk at its lowest position.The way my desk is my monitor sits on a perch that is already above eye level so I need one that will come down as low as possible. The thing that really turns me off of the BenQ is a review I read stating the screen sits way too high. I asked about the 931BF, since BestBuy sold out of those, and there doesn't seem to be a local vendor.Ībout $280, at least for me, but that seems to be the going price in PriceGrabber. I've put a word in to add my request to the order queue, since the sales rep I talked to will get there first shipment of them by. Wide Colour Gamut (CCFL 97%), MagicBright3, PrintViewer, MagicTune with Asset Management, Safe Mode (Down Scaling in UXGA) I'm wondering if anyone has any thoughts on the Samsung 931C/931BF?
What would you buy between Viewsonic VP930 and this one ? It will come in black or white colors and features a nifty S-shaped stand" "Priced at just $379.99, the 19-inch Samsung SyncMaster 971P offers 1280 x 1024 resolution, 1500:1 contrast ratio, 6ms response time, and a 178-degree viewing angle. What do you think guys about the new model from Samsung 971P ?
