Ukr_Alex Posted October 1, 2006 Posted October 1, 2006 I have to say I am trully surprised how no one really recomended wide screen yet. Widescreen makes the most sense. Its how you naturaly see things, in a wide format. Your horizontal field of view is much greater then your vertical. WS gaming simply trasnforms gaming since you can see so much more. For any sim where you sit in a cockpit I think its essential these days. I would not worry about standarts because most games these days do support widescreen. I will recomend widescreen over 4:3 every day of the week. :Core2Duo @ 435FSB x 7 3.05GHz : ATI x1900xtx: 2GB Patriot @ 435Mhz : WD 250Gb UATA: Seagate 320Gb SATA2: X-Fi Platinum:
Guest Cali Posted October 2, 2006 Posted October 2, 2006 I got a WS today 1680x1050 8ms 20.1" inch Once I get it hooked up I'll tell you guys what I think about WS. I have to do some house cleaning first, but I will post something within the next 4-6 hours. I'm very excited to see what Lock on is going to look like. And my desk is very happy as well, I can take this 80lb monster off. But now I'm going to have to buy another LCD since I can't stand not having 2 monitors running.

VVanks Posted October 2, 2006 Posted October 2, 2006 Go for the widescreen. You can see more of your cockpit. Plays a lot better too and feels more natural. Homepage: http://www.worldwynd.net Coming Soon: http://www.simplywyn.com
Guest Cali Posted October 2, 2006 Posted October 2, 2006 Good stuff Cali.... I hope you bought a DVI cable? This is something we didnt cover but I'm sure you read up on during your research....
