Samsung 710T tft monitor ;]

[JANER]

Works perfectly and source:Digital/Analogue is excellent
But in HL1 I can only get 60fps was expecting 75 then read digital mayy do 60 and analogue 75 but both are doing 60 and also why do I get normal fps in HL2 etc? (over 75)

Ta for any help
Off to work in 10 mins so I will find out when I get back :waves:

[JANER]

In cs stress test I got 67.7 average and during game I got 80+ lots of times more then averaage, so why is HL1 diff?

[=RAGE=]

have you installed the correct drivers for your monitor?

[RaV]

Use refreshforce to manually set the hz to 75 for whatever rez you play hl1 in.

Sounds like you also have vsync on for opengl (hl1) and not direct3d (hl2). Change the vsync setting under the 3d tab in ati control panel.

[Badger]

You have a choice, play at 60fps, or turn off vsync.

You are correct, I am now getting 100fps again and def 99% no diff with V-sync off, TFT's must handle V-sync diff cos with CRT it was plain ugly with V-sync off

Rage of course I put on latest drivers and Rav of course I use a refreshlock proggie :P :P

BTW Rav need a word with ya sometime you may feel like dropping into #[RFC]

Its because of the way TFTs are rendered by individual pixels changing colour rather than the entire screen scanning. refresh rate really means nothing to a tft.

[JANER]

Ya I had read that Badger...... but with V-sync on the effect on me eyes was bad in HL1.....rocks now as I pld last nite for 15 mins.

I do a review for u later tonite on the monitor, tis 10/10 so far.......
So good that if they bring this out in 19" with same response time or better I will buy that and give this to the Elf :naughty:

[Shrubbery]

Don't like to rain on your parade Janer, but I just thought I'd mention I've got Samsung 19" TFT. Rather good. Feel free to punch me if you like ;)

[JANER]

Oh you can get NUMEROUS versions of the Samsung 19" tft but they havn't the muscle of the 710T
Ratio and Response time ;)

[Badger]

FFS. My monitor would have been delivered today if citylink had actually tried. They didnt even attempt it, but claimed on their website that they had :(
Now gotta drive 25 miles to get it tomorrow.
