37" LCD, Insane or awsome.
« on: March 06, 2007, 06:53:42 PM »
So Westinghouse has a 37" 1080p Widescreen LCD (8ms I think) that has a DVI port. some guy on the OCF forums is using one for his main monitor.  If one were to get one for a gaming rig would this be insane or awsome?  I dont think you'd be too popular at a lan as you would take up the space of two people with normal sized gear.

from what i've read it's nicer then the dell 30"  the vede from PC gamer uses it for his main rig too.  the best part is this monitor only costs $1000 cheaper then anything too.  theres videos of this monitor on youtube playing BF2.

I got the Westinghouse 32" Widescreen LCD as a new TV.  The model I have only has a VGA port but it has a very nice picture.  As for bringing it to a LAN even the 32 is huge and you would take the space of 4 players cause you couldn't be that close to it and see everything.  You need at least 5 to 7 feet distance.  And the 32" was only $700.
Never, but never question the engineers judgement.

I have the Westy 37" 1080p as my primary monitor. Works great, worth every penny :)
