No it's not the resolution, its the physical size of the display, I change down from a 32" panel down to a 24" one, when you sit close to the screen as you must to see the fine detail then if your screen is too big then you don't see the outer area of the screen.
It is of course personal choice but if your concern is optimising your gaming performance then bigger is not better.

Well, with new techs like 2D/3D Vision Surround, Eyefinity, that is no longer necessarily true.  If a game can properly support 5760x1080, for example, you get a lot more FOV than you normally could with 1080P, and hence better gaming performance.  Plenty of games already support it.

BC2 and Nvidia 2D Surround:


A single 60" with 5300x2880 native res could easily be treated in the same way, of course the monitor would need to have two dual-link DVI inputs for it to work.

gotta agree with pub here..... but really unless you claim to be some uberleetasshole MLG ultra gamer, i think its all personal preference.

but i cant game on anything over 37" as i need to move my head to see areas of the screen as opposed to a 24-28" (28" is the sweet spot IMO) monitor where everything is in my field of view. i mean i COULD game on something bigger but my KDR suffers because of it.

i gotta buddy that has a 105" 720P projector, and while it looks badass, i suck monkey balls when gaming on it.

That is only a problem when only the screen size gets bigger but resolution stays the same.

A 60" PC monitor, if such a thing exists, would have a super high resolution of 5300x2880 or something like that.  Then you won't have that problem even if you sit close.  It would be truly amazing to play PC games on a resolution like that.  If you don't believe me, try game on 3 24" monitors in 2D surround at a res of 5760x1080.  And remember MarikCraven was talking about hooking up his PC to a 60" MONITOR, not HDTV.

Is the Scorch similar to the Fragnstein controller for PS3?  I bought the Fragnstein when it came out last year, but sadly it didn't work well at all.

You need to jtag your xbox to run hacks like that right?  Not many jtagers out there.

Configurations and Requests / Re: Halo Reach Congif - 2000 dpi

« on: 12:59 AM - 10/11/10 »

wow

this config has the potential to be the best config out there

its really really precise in micromovements
almost no pixel-movements when doing diagonal lines

the only problem with your config is its acceleration
if you can get rid of it, congratulations to the best config!

i hope you will give it a try

thanks for the comments. Yes that is just version one. once i found a stable config i posted it. every one has different mouses mousepad and OS's they run so not 1 Config is perfect for every one.

but I agree with you. its a good start for any one looking for a reach config. but it needs work at the same time. Iv been messing with it still and if i find a good mix. i can message u the changes and u can let me know what u think before i post the update.

or you can message me and ask me what u want me to change. and ill try to work a good config for ya.

I am about to post an mw2 config if u wana try out some more of my configs.

sounds good
well if you can get rid of the acceleration in this config then this will be an AWSOME config

You can tweak the translation exp yourself and see if you can lower the acceleration.  .75 seems a bit high.

I'm not sure.  All I know is when you enter the main contest, you get a unique link that you can use to let other people to enter, and if you get 10 people, you will enter the draw for smaller gifts.

I like this config a lot.  I tweked the y/x ratio a bit; set it to 1.75, and now it's even better.

Yeah, I'm just anxious

Would a G500 be a good upgrade from a G5? the g9x doesnt suit me.

It should be, but I would get a Razer.  I just can't Logitech stuff.

« on: 10:09 PM - 10/09/10 »

I think it's weird that the UDR on your HTPC does not fluctuate at all.  Even on my gaming rig with an overclocked i7 980X, it still fluctuates if I set it to 125, even at 60, sometimes it goes down to 59.

Do not bother with a switch if you also game on the PC.  Just use some USB extension cables instead and that should take care of the wear and tear issue.

The only thing the pc has over the 360 is specific game titles and a web browser. They will never release a web browser for the 360 cuz it will really kill the pc IMO. And the xim 3 is coming.... =]

I'm sorry..........WHAT? Have you ever owned a gaming rig? My PC blows the crap out of my Xbox 360. Don't bring up price at this point either because I would spend the money to make the 360 as good as my PC. I play both and I have a better, more intense experience on the PC. 360 is for having online fun with groups of friends.

You know what I can't wait for? The days when they have affordable 60" Computer Monitors!

Got a HD card? i have and it was cheap as fk, plug it into your TV?

Why do you need HD card for?  My GTX 480s came with mini HDMI ports.

-.-

I basically meant that if his graphics card had "ANY" Kind of HD out put then he should plug it into his TV, if he wants to play on a 60" screen why wait for a 60" monitor?

Yeah, but one 60" is nothing compared with 3 24" 120hz monitors running 3D Vision Surround...  Unless of couse you have the desktop space for 3 60" TVs.

I just found out that it's "National Day" in China (which, it turns out, the country shuts down for 10 days!).

its actually 7 days

Only 5 days, if you consider the fact that people have to go to work on this coming Saturday and Sunday to compensate for bridge public holidays.
