Are these good monitors? I went with Asus VG248QE They are 1msGTG monitors 144MHz I don't believe there is a better monitor on the market within that price range, the next one up as of 2 months ago was an additional 200$ | ||

There is no limitation on size for dynamic disks afaik. | ||

He means it like this: The specs the manufacturer mentions are worthless. The actual latency you will see in practice needs to be measured with some sort of external device. This measurement shows what's real. You can't compare two monitors with the specs they have on paper. You will have to look up reviews that determine the real latency. | ||

While what is on paper is usually misleading- the reviews I read form amazon say the 1ms claim is legit. I'm not sure about the above posters monitor. | ||

That being said there is nothing wrong with the specs of what you posted, I was merely suggesting a more optimal one if your interested while your return may still be valid. Enjoy your new monitor  | ||

Reliability is probably my number one concern. (edit->) Portability second. What laptops should I check out? On September 27 Myrmidon wrote: Yeah, I guess the question is what you're doing in those Adobe programs (and which?). I assumed it was something relatively intensive or else it's not worth bringing up, though that could be a bad assumption. And I should have specified quad core i7. That's my bad. Specifically at the moment it would be Photoshop & Illustrator & Dreamweaver all simultaneously. Also animation software separately. Those business class laptops are petty awesome, although kindof clunky looking and heavy (ones i saw) except the zenbook. I'll probably wait for black friday cyber monday waaaat | ||

If building around performance and portability (unfortunately reliability is less certain), something Clevo W740SU-based seems possibly suitable. http://www.anandtech.com/show/7182/90-minutes-with-the-clevo-w740su-featuring-iris-pro-hd-5200 http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-Schenker-S413-Clevo-W740SU-Notebook.98313.0.html http://www.xoticpc.com/sager-np2740-clevo-w740su-p-6201.html Though really, going with a quad core may be overbuilding on specs if you're not constantly using heavy operations. I mean, how fast do things run now, and what hardware are you running those things on right now? | ||

No, changing the cable changes nothing. It's probably that some connections got knocked loose during shipping. Plug everything back in. Or some physical shock from shipping knocked some faulty electronics loose such that the power supply or motherboard is now defective and won't run. You could try a different power supply. | ||

If it's really the cheapest one on the market, can we usually get really good rebate on black friday or boxing day for laptops like this or it's probably going to be around the same price?sorry if its the wrong thread to ask this kind of thing ;o | ||
