|
|
Picked up a Vizio 32" 1080p HDTV to use as a PC monitor. Got rid of my aging 19" twins.
This works pretty good, picture quality is excellent through HDMI port.
I can say that a 32" at 3.5 to 4 foot way is very nice on the eyes.
Only two little caveats, DVI to HDMI adapter will not transmit audio signal, not a problem as I use external speakers anyway. And 2, for power management purposes the TV will not recognize PC when connected through HDMI so when the PC goes in standby mode (sleep) the TV turns off so you have to hit the ON button when you wake up the PC again.
I bought the new monitor because one of the 19's was failing and its one less expense when it finally does come time to replace the PC.

ah, love that show! =) i use dual 21's for now, but dual 32" could be nice. one thing i didn't realize was that dvi to hdmi would not transmit audio.
