darn, what kind of price tag comes with this monster?

W1zzard · Dec 4, 2005

aaargh MUST ... BUY ... CAN'T .. RESIST!

how much are these?

Darksaber · Dec 4, 2005

yea...I would love to get one of these for a home theater...take a media center PC with DVB-T tuner and an xbox 360...

DBH · Dec 4, 2005

I want I want !! hmm you know whats even funnier I bet you could get 2 of the 24" ones for the price of that 30" one lol

mnm222876 · Dec 4, 2005

Well, Apple's display is $2500 for the 30 incher and $1200 for the 23. Dell's 24" is just under 1K, so I bet the Dell 30" will be around $2000-$2200.

No ATI/Nvidia card can handle that monitors native resolution, you will need a matrox card.

Wouldn't a driver update solve that? Or is that hardware bound?

Bastieeeh · Dec 4, 2005

You will need a gfx-card with two dvi-connectors and dual dvi-transmitters...

X1800 max resolution is that.. so it's possible, but very tight.

Could you imagine two X1800XT's Crossfired and two of these monitors side by side...

Wicked.

Totally awesome. But just one of those monitors and a X1800XT would please me.

Ive always heard crossfire farts at 1600x1200?

djbbenn · Dec 5, 2005

Yeah I think that is true, thats what i've read anyways. But a single, X1800 has a max resolution of 2560 x 1600.

That stuff will get worked out soon enough. nVidia had problems with SLi when it first came out but now it's rock solid.

DBH · Dec 5, 2005

The 1600x1200 issue is only for the X850 and below the X1K series don't suffer from that.

Dark Ride · Dec 6, 2005

Hopefully the prices for Dell's 19" and 21" displays will drop when this comes out

djbbenn · Dec 6, 2005

Yeah that would be nice... I need a new monitor. :laugh:

Sorry buddy...

The only thing Matrox can drive on that thing is 2D. If you want to play games at their native resolution an X1800XT or 7800GTX 256MB/512MB would be better. SLI 7800GTX or GTX 512MB would be the best option though as a single card may start slowing down on you with newer games like FEAR. SLI though is pure bliss. How do I know? People are already doing it on Apple 30" displays, and yes, they are running at the native 2560x1600 resolution.

Info I obtained today from Samsung, for what it is worth:

Samsungs own 30" raw lcd panel is spec'ed at 1000 with 8ms grey. The initial Dell 30" release will (according to Samsung engineering) more than likely be an LG panel, same as in the Apple. This info is current as of today from the Samsung engineering team that produces and supplies the lcd raw panels to Dell and other manufacturers. It is also possible that later on, some Samsung 30" panels may show up in the same 3007 monitor as the current LG panels without a spec change since Dell has to go with the lowest spec of the possible variations of the included raw panel used, but the initial supply will NOT be Samsung, again according to Samsung reps. Whether Dell is under specing the LG 30" panel as they did with the 2405fpw is unknown at the present time. The Samsung 30" Monitor for retail is still up in the air and will probably take a cue from the Dell 3007 sales as far as when and how much production, but it is clear that it probably has a better spec than the LG/3007.

Urgent Help Needed!

Hi everyone!

It's my first time here and, predictably, I'm coming cap-in-hand!

I have just ordered from Dell a 3007WFP 30" wide screen monitor (native resolution 2560x1600) - my brother got me a -46% discount, making the price £780 (fantastic!).

My graphics card is a Powercolor Radeon x850XL 256MB (VIVO, dual display etc etc) - I'm sure you know all about this card.

What I'm worried about is that the card won't be able to run the monitor at its native resolution! I really would hate to see stretched pixels on my new hideously expensive monitor!

I see from the published specs of the x850 chipset that its max res. is 2048x1536 but it also says "complete list of resolutions depends on the driver version and operating system."

I am really hoping that the wonderful Omega drivers might allow the card to drive the 3007WFP properly...

Can anyone shed light on this? I'm in a bit of a panic!

Thanks loads in advance
