Hey r4ptor, have you made any decisions?

just saw this thread, and I got curious about your decision, because I have the configuration you were considering.

I have the 3007wfp-hc with 2 2007fps on the side.

I am very happy with it. for work and for play.

My main games are race sims, so SoftTH works really well at 4960x1600. It is awsome. games like GTR2 and Race 07 are my favs.

Good luck and let us know what you decide.

Oh here are a couple of pics so you can see for yourself.

Wow.. how time can fly.. I've been quiet busy with work, but honestly, I've also taking all this monitor thing a bit easy, to avoid being spontaneous.

I just ordered the HP LP3065 today - I feel I made the right decision. The Dell 3007WFP seemed to be a bit outdated, and the new 3008WFP have, according to some reviews, slightly poor image quality in comparison with the HP monitor - and the new Dell is just a tad too expensive as well for my liking.

I'll stay with a single monitor for a while, probably add my CRT if I can - and see if I miss having more - I race too, and thats the biggest reason I looked into surround gaming solutions in the first place.

SpeedyVV: ty for the images - still looks awesome.

hm.. got my LP3065. Size is... awesome.

But - I'm not sure if I'm too happy about the responce rate - it gets a tad blurry when there is some fast movement in games.

What good alternatives are there? Doesn't matter if screen size is smaller... again, I'm very picky about such things.

Response rate typically gets higher the bigger the panel, and to a certain degree you have to live with some amount of it. I would lean towards a 24" panel, or slightly larger.

I like this one because of it's slightly larger physical dimensions, and it's still fast.

If only there was a way to join it with 2 16"ers. Really want to try the ATI Multiview on triple slots.

I'm getting more and more used to it, and I don't really notice it that much - the ghosting IS there, but I guess I'm just accepting the way things are.

avioni: Yes - it's not for gaming only. doesn't matter now anyways.
