| Not only that, there aren't any games or GFX cards that can pump out that resolution anyway. Taking a quick peek at my local IT shop the highest GFX card resolution I could find was 2048x2048.

2 x 2048 x 1536 = 6,291,456 1 x 3840 x 2400 = 9,216,000 It's not that big. Pixels are just pixels. The more, the better. The real problem is not whether one needs this or not, but how to display the pixels properly even if one had this monitor and, before that, how to pay for it.  |

South Korean resellers charged no more than 15,000,000 Won for this monitor. That's a lot more than one pays for average car in South Korea. An average South Korean university student pay about 5,000,000 won in a year. It was not meant for gaming. |
| Hey don't get me wrong. I still want one, I just don't think I'd be using such a high res is all  So what kind of GFX card could power a res that high? I'm confused about the two DVI part...

| Thats a lot of money though for a refurbed monitor, whatever crazy amount of pixels it may display. Also it's only what, 22 or 23 inch? --- For $4000 and it's rebuilt??!?!- whoa. Better come with a kick ass warranty. Looks like the new ones range $6000 to $7000 something. For almost everyone out there, this monitor seems like a waste of money. Graphics designers, or almost anyone who needs a pretty high res monitor, wouldn't need this, quite the overkill I think. You can get a very high res monitor (2048 pixels is already overkill for almost any applications I think) for less than half of that. Honestly, why would you ever need such high res?? You could sort of compare the pixels to dpi on a printer. Take a photo printed at around 2400 dpi, or even just 1200 dpi. Then one at 3000 something or more dpi. See a difference?? No, you won't--- once you're above photo real quality, any higher is really wasteful and not necessary. Just my opinion anyway |
| I want one.  Memo to myself, call ATI & NVidia to ask when they will release graphic cards that will support these resolutions.
