dvi/analogue/analogue WITH digital

“super computer” still in making.. eventually i KNOW i’m gonna drop it off to my local store that i deal with when i have no time (read: inspiration) to deal my OWN things (yes yes, it WAS the 2005 resolution) khair.. now looking at 17/19" lcd screens.. and FIRST THING i noticed.. the vidcard in the system has a dvi .. along with it is a standard analogue connector…

looking into online materials, people PREFERED that if u ARE getting 1, get the digi-to-digi solution..

worth it? i KNOW its gonna be standard soon.. but will it be worth spending extra 100 or so? (CDN) ? (40-50euros)

recommend brand AND prices (online/offline) willing to ship/pick toronto, canada.

Re: dvi/analogue/analogue WITH digital

i think it already is standard.
if you’re buying a LCD, I’d look at Dell.
they have the best price/performace.

i purchased a 20.1" widescreen LCD for 599$ (CDN). I’ve bought their 19" LCD (1905FP) for 399$. They both have 4 built in USB2.0 ports. My 20.1 inch has 4 inputs. VGA, DVI, S-video, and composite. I watch TV on it.

And.. best of all, Dell is having 10 Days of Dell deals. One item for sale a day. They might have a LCD. Keep your eyes open. They sellout fast. Like within 40-50 minutes.

Downside is that they start this at like 8:00am. THats why I’m up now :frowning:

$hit man di laaaaaaltain! :eek:

sorry man, but if i do 2am shifts.. there is NO WAY i’m gonna get up at 8am.. not if it was chance case..

Re: dvi/analogue/analogue WITH digital

well, saturday and sunday had crappy items. but even if you don't get in on the deals, I think you should go with Dell when it comes to LCDs.

Re: dvi/analogue/analogue WITH digital

thats what i wanted.. some recommendation.. so far people are saying dell , sony (same thing as dell uses sony's manufactured crystals anyway..) and samsung.. they say benq is an affordable solution.. but just the name, makes me feel like i'm chocked on my cuffs..

Re: dvi/analogue/analogue WITH digital

The one thing thats different about Dell LCDs is that they all have (atleast the DVI ones) a built in USB Hub ...

Re: dvi/analogue/analogue WITH digital

:expressionless: actually.. .. yeah that WILL become VERY handy.. cuz i was gonna get a powered-hubby (7ports) (just being greedy these days) :blush:

Re: dvi/analogue/analogue WITH digital

yeah .. i packed up my hub as well after I got the LCD

Re: dvi/analogue/analogue WITH digital

its standard and I wont pay extra for DVI now adays.

You can buy a flat screen wtih DVI for cheapish price now.

Re: dvi/analogue/analogue WITH digital

There are some Dell's that don't have DVI, I believe the 171FP doesn't have it. At work I use the dual 2001FP's and love their resolution and brightness. At home i have the 1901FP which 3 yrs ago cost me some $750 US. Now they go for $350 or so. What a life!!
