    Thought id share with you my new Dell 3007WFP-HC monitor which came today I didn't think it would be here until next week but it came today so woo :D

    All my friends said it was a waste and you wont get use to it, its probably the nicest thing ive ever seen! Games look fantastic on, I was playing CoD2 and BF2 and Bioshock just there and....:eek:

    I will say one downfall to large monitors is using the net most website barely use up half of the screen.. Even though you could looking at alot more with that like msn etc etc all on the screen at once.. Its a real pleasure to use :)

    It really was money well spent and anyone that could ever afford it(im in debt now for awhile) go for it... WELL WORTH IT!!!!!

    Also with this I got another 8800 for SLI and an 850 Thermaltake PSU!

    Pictures...


    There really is a massive difference

    Anti.. if you have the money seriously its probably the best thing ive ever bought in my life :D I only paid €1250(brand new) for it and there €1800 of Dell :rolleyes:

    Ah grim it will be this way for awhile.. only thing I could get would be quad core which I dont need.. hmm I do need a new keyboard though I dont like this one anymore the novelty of having it backlit wore off and the keys are horrible for games...
