Asus PA246Q display
|
|
We’re witnessing an oversaturation of the wide-use monitor market. The
price range has shrunk so much that something simply has to be pushed
out on the cheaper end, while something new has to appear to refresh the
more expensive one. ASUS’ PA246Q doesn’t seem connected to this story in
any way at first. It’s clearly labelled Pro and has a red line on it, so
that it matches a DSLR objective, which is all that pros look for,
right? The frame around the display contains metric and imperial unit
scales, while the stand is optimised for measuring swivel angle in
degrees. A separate button, clearly labelled with a removable sticker,
calls several different templates, such as the centimetre net or A4
paper format. These are displayed over the image coming from your PC,
supposedly significantly speeding up some processes in the graphics
editing department. How these are better than the graphics tools on your
PC, and why anyone would change the DPI settings of the PC to match
those of the monitor, just so as to approximately place the image onto a
rarely used paper format in professional publications, remains a mystery
to us…

Matrox DualHead2Go DP and TripleHead2Go DP Multi-Monitor Adapters Now
Compatible with New Thunderbolt-Enabled MacBook Pro
Matrox Graphics Inc. today announced that the Matrox DualHead2Go DP Edition
and TripleHead2Go DP Edition are now compatible with the latest Apple® MacBook®
Pro notebooks featuring the new Thunderbolt™ port. Developed by Intel® and
brought to market with technical collaboration from Apple, the high speed I/O
port sets a new standard for high performance peripherals. DualHead2Go DP and
TripleHead2Go DP are already the preferred multi-display solutions of many Mac®
users. With a simple Matrox firmware update, these solutions can also be used to
achieve unprecedented dual- and triple-monitor performance including OpenGL®
support on the new Thunderbolt-enabled MacBook Pro. The new software release
will also add the 2x1400x1050 multi-projector resolution to the already
comprehensive supported resolution list.
 "DualHead2Go DP and TripleHead2Go DP deliver workstation-class, multi-display
performance for the most demanding media creators and CAD designers," said
Caroline Injoyan, Business Development Manager, Matrox Graphics, Inc. "We're
happy to provide continuous support to our Mac users by enabling Thunderbolt
compatibility on our Graphics eXpansion Modules."
The Matrox DualHead2Go and TripleHead2Go Graphics eXpansion Modules (GXMs)
work in conjunction with your system's existing GPU to provide high-quality,
uncompressed graphics and video across maximum resolutions of dual 1920x1200 and
triple 1360x768 under Mac. With the additional desktop display area, MacBook Pro
users can run different applications on each monitor or view one application
across multiple displays, eliminating the tedious and time-consuming tasks of
re-sizing, re-arranging, and re-organizing multiple windows. Notebook users can
further enhance their productive workflow by using their laptop's LCD as a
third—or fourth—monitor to achieve an unprecedented level of computing
efficiency. GXMs are also compatible with Microsoft® Windows® operating systems.
Availability
The new software is available on the Matrox driver
download web pages, while the Matrox DualHead2Go DP Edition (Part #: D2G-DP-MIF)
and TripleHead2Go DP Edition (Part #: T2G-DP-MIF) are available for purchase

ASUS PA246Q ProArt 24” IPS Professional Monitor
|
|
For many discerning users, the current crop of inexpensive 24" monitors sporting TN technology don't even come close to offering the quality they are looking for. Unfortunately, stepping up to an IPS-totting panel meant shelling out well over $600 but ASUS is now offering another route. Their ProArt 24" monitor seems to offer the impossible: an IPS panel, factory calibrated settings and good response times for under $500. Is this too good to be true?

Samsung UN55C9000 55 inch 3D LED TV Review
|
|
Flip through any magazine and you’ll see that sex sells and an
ultra thin 55? 3D LED TV is just downright sexy in any room! Mouths
drop in awe when friends come over and see what I have in the living
room. Picture quality is just as important to how a TV looks and the
UN55C9000 has one of the best displays Samsung has ever made. The
colors stand out and the LED backlight highlights dark scenes extremely
well. Not to be outdone by any 3D TV on the market, the UN55C9000 comes
fully equipped with 3D playback as well as wireless LAN for media
streaming and Internet browsing.

ASUS N53’s (N53SV-A1) exterior
|
|
"There are a few rough edges. The display of the N53 is quite
poor for a laptop of this price, and the squishy keyboard is a nasty
oversight in a laptop with an otherwise luxurious finish. However,
these problems are tolerable considering this laptop’s performance.
The ASUS N53 is a hardware powerhouse; indeed, it’s a testament to the
fact that computer processors – quick though they may be – still have
significant room for improvement in the future, and those improvements
will positively impact the quality of the computer you receive for
your money."

ASUS ML248H 24” Monitor
|
|
ASUS has a wide range of monitors which run the gamut from ultra high end professional products to more reasonably priced units. While the ML248H lies closer to the bottom of their product stack in terms of overall price, it definitely doesn't skimp on features and is supposed to offer some reasonable image quality as well. But can this sub-$225 24" monitor overcome the limitations of its TN panel?

brite-View Air SyncHD Wireless HDMI Bridge Review
|
|
If wirelessly transmitting a Blu-ray stream (which tops out around 50mbps) is questionable, transmitting uncompressed 1080p/60 video seems downright impossible. Yet, that is exactly what brite-View claims to do with their Air SyncHD transmission kit. In a nutshell, the brite-View Air SyncHD transmission kit promises to wirelessly bridge an HDMI source device and HDMI receiving device, freeing you to place the devices anywhere within the system’s wireless range. Further, the system manages to send 1080p/60 video, audio and infrared (IR) with less than one millisecond latency up to 66 feet. It sounds great on paper, but can it deliver?

Asus PA246Q ProArt 24-Inch LCD Monitor Review
|
|
When we heard Asus was coming out with a P-IPS display, we were a bit taken aback at the thought of Asus getting into the high end monitor game. But as the old cliche goes, there's a first time for everything, and the PA246Q ProArt 24-inch LCD monitor is Asus' first foray into the professional display market.
Every other monitor Asus has come out with has been of the TN variety, some of them very good, but there's a clear divide between what you get with an IPS panel and a TN display. The former boasts better viewing angles, much improved color accuracy, and in recent times have even proved up to the task of gaming...

|
|
Having a great LCD makes your computer experience even better, no one wants to be using an old washed out LCD. LG is a name you may not think of when talking about LCD monitors, but after reading this review you just might. LG’s flagship LED model series, the E50 is just .69 inches thick, and boasts mega ratio contrast technology, resulting in an extremely clear and natural picture quality built into the ultra slim and stylish design. The series is comprised of 3 different models, today we will be taking a look at the E2050 20-inch model. Geeks.com was nice enough to send us the E2050 20-inc h LED Widescreen LCD Monitor to review. Geeks.com is a great place to find LCD Computer Monitors."
