I quit halfway through FarCry when it got boring and repetitive for me. (yet I was addicted to Doom II when it came out lol..) Funny thing is it's one of the better ones out there! Maybe the vast number of FPSs and games in general we have to choose from these days is what contributes to my eventual... |

I did the research a few years ago, bought a PC Power & Cooling unit, and haven't looked back since. Hands down the best PSU I've owned, and I've owned my fare share. The voltage regulation on this thing is +/-1%!! |

Do you notice any screen wash? I googled Viewsonic 2025 "screen wash" and vx2025wm "screen wash" and came up with nothing. That's good news, but another reason I thought the LCD was IPS. *VA panels are known for having screen wash and I greatly value a uniform image across the screen. Do you notice ... |

Thanks! I checked it out, an interesting read. Also, I've done a bit of "independant research" with BSPlayer to see which modes Monitor Calibration Wizard (MCW) affects. I also noticed that in some of the modes, black ended up as a dark gray. MCW Y/N: Y = MCW affected video color, N = MCW did not af... |

I have looked into monitor calibration quite a bit recently, and have found that while there are basic tools like Adobe Gamma and expensive software suites that come with colorimeters, there isn't much in between.
