@noobvious i think i'll pass, thanks for the offer tho.

15 bucks for that, the cord alone costs more than that!

Nice find, where's that guy live anyway? :roflmao:

i forget, i think somewhere near me. i thought it wasn't gonna work when i payed 15$ for it. i think i can use it as two monitors, i need to find a VGA splitter or another DVi to Vga adapter.

Hello mate.


It would probably need an in-built picture-in-picture setup to run more than one image, does it have that?

 

[vierasniper]

im not sure, but it does have 2 VGA inputs.

I'd imagine that's for switching between sources, like through the remote; but don't let me dissuade you, you'll never know if you never try. Do you have a remote and does it have a "PIP" button or something similar?
Look up the manual for it on-line.

when i bought it, i only got the cord and the monitor. i need get a universal remote and try the PIP.

Picture-in-picture is the reason (like you're wanting, TV and PC at the same time) I bought my 47" all the paperwork said it had it but when I got it home and contacted the builder I found out it had never been enabled when built.

Look Here

 

[vierasniper]

thats alot of monitors + a foot. i found some of the manuals, because apparently there are several and i cant seem to find anything about PIP.

Make sure you turn the screen saver functions on, the orbiting feature. Moves the picture a couple of pixels (use the largest setting). It's really not noticeable when it moves. Keep the brightness and contrast (picture) settings as low as you can without it being to dark for you. Plasmas burn in quite easily as they are incredibly bright. Without the filter glass at the front, you could land planes with one. Since it is a monitor, there will be no PIP on Sony's. Run the inverted picture function for a while every so often too. Nice monitor for a PC!

That's a professional monitor BTW, not a consumer model. I just looked it up on the Sony technical site (I'm a TV tech). No major issues with it as far as lots of bulletins and such. Tell truth, for $15, if it failed in a month you got a deal (not that there is any reason it should fail )A Guy

I am actually seriously considering that.

Since Intel has to be a d**k and lock their CPUs, I am looking at going AMD next time.
Also might grab an ATI card, but that remains to be seen.

You can see what I have waiting for it here.

The makings of a great system there. The 760 is a great occing board. Post me if you need any help when you get ready to overclock. I have enjoyed occing my 760. Best of luck.
