Exclamation Dell 24" lcd - GW 1920x1200 screen request

Hi all,
I'm about to buy a dell 24" LCD and i need to see how GW is displayed at 1920x1200.
If someone own this monitor pls post a random screenshot (real pixel size) of the interface.

Thanks

Uh, how can you tell anything about monitor's quality from a screenshot? It's just another jpg, is it not? You would need a picture taken with a camera, wouldn't you? I believe widescreengaming.com has a review on GW with widescreen, if you're want to know how it looks like in wide in general.

He wanted to see how the IU looked, probably the size/scaling at that resolution. At least that is what I thought...

I have a dual monitor setup. My primary is a Sony 23" LCD running at 1900x1200 and a Samsung 21" LCD running 1600x1200. I can tell you that running GW in 1900x1200 is very nice and very crisp.

I have a friend that is running a Dell 24" with SLI graphics cards driving it. That image is very vibrant.

I am using the Dell 2407WFP monitor at work. I can't tell you how it looks in gw because I can't load gw on it. Personally it is like any other monitors except that it has a PIP on it (picture in picture) where it takes interface from other video sources. It also have a 4 in 1 card reader as well as a 4 port usb 2.0 hub.

It is a shame that I am still using a 18" Dell lcd that I had brought more than 3 years back at home.

How come the screenshot looks so grainy? Did you have Anti-Aliasing on?

Yeah I have AA and AF on. But that is odd, as it doesn't look grainy to me. But then it may be because my monitor isn't wide screen.
