Yeah I believe it should allow you around 15 or 20 posts? I dont remember.
This thread makes me want to clean my messy table and build a really nice rig. Currently my rig is, well, not that good. I don't have a monitor (last one is broken), and I use my 32" TV for temporary monitor. As for the audio section, I only have Focusrite Scarlett 212i and 1st gen KRK Rokit Powered 5". My only cans is Sennheiser HD215 that almost died. So yeah that's that.
Anyway, I can't post pictures. Is it because this is my first post?
PC's connected to TV's have really low response time.
It's only a temporary monitor but I don't really notice the different.See, my old monitor was an old 1440x900 samsung monitor, so yeah, my tv was kinda an upgrade. I hope I can get a really nice led monitor next year.
Haha, but Samsung makes really great monitor/T.V.'s
If you could, try grabbing a 2MS response time. It helps in gaming. If budget isn't too much of an issue, 120hz monitor is way better than a 60hz one.
For example, instead of buying a second graphic card for SLI or Crossfire, you will notice a lot more improvement jumping for 60hz to 120hz

I had to choose between a 2560x1440 IPS monitor ot 1080p TN 120hz monitor. I can see the 120hz being useful on the competitive scene, but for personal use I think I prefer the higher resolution fidelity and colour accuracy when just enjoying games. I suppose it's all preference, something to think about though.
or get the best of both worlds from overlord computer

I do believe 85hz is the maximum you can get at 2560x1600 on a digital signal (DVI/displayport), have they started selling the Overlord monitors? If my mind serves me right, they're Catleap/Yamakasi monitors modified to output the higher refresh rate.
What's your current GPU? Do you think a single 680 can run modern games on 2560*1440?
I'm really interested in high resolution screen more than 120hz screen, but I don't think today's GPU is up for it yet (?)

I'm using a single 670, I haven't found a game I can't max at 2560x1440 yet, that's without anti-aliasing which I don't need at this resolution anyway, but I tend to use none or 2-4x depending on the game.
Haven't found a game to max on at that resolution? Think again, Metro 2033.
Nvidia does a lot worst in that section versus AMD cards.
