Dell UltraSharp 2407WFP 24Long time, no updates. It’s not that nothing is happening, though. Lots of small projects, but none worth showing off (yet at least). Anyway, I just have to brag about my new screen, so here it is. ;)

As it says in the headline it’s a 24″ widescreen, i.e. it is damn big. I’ve been reluctant to buying an LCD flat panel for years because I never found their colour representation to be anywhere close to my good old Trinitron CRT. Things have changed, though, and when I came to think about it I don’t require exact colours in any of my daily work anyway. On the other hand, what I absolutely must have is lots of screen estate and fast response time.

It appears I got all three things: great colours, high resolution (1920×1200), and fast response time (6ms grey-grey). And not the least, the image is ultra sharp, which certainly wasn’t the case with my CRT, so the name is in fact not lying. As the display on my laptop has the same resolution I now effectively have a desktop of 3840×1200 pixels, which should suffice in most cases. ;) Actually I wasn’t sure until I tried that my graphics adapter could handle two displays at that resolution using DVI-D. Nice surprise.

Well, I had been thinking about buying a flat panel for some time, but it wasn’t until I stumbled across an ad from Dell I started looking into it. I spent some time reading reviews, and it appears that the 2407WFP is competing with Samsung’s 244T. From what I understand they’re using the same (Samsung) panel, but the Dell has more facilities and connections and comes at a lower price.

Most of the reviews mentioned problems with banding, streaking, and blurry text on the Dell, especially on the earliest firmware. I haven’t seen any of these problems; the image quality is absolutely top notch. And what an awesome experience it is when gaming! No problems with response time whatsoever. I truly recommend this screen. :)

Here are some pictures showing my new and old setup, and a close up of some text to refute that the screen blurs text. Click the images to enlarge.
