New monitor question

[scOtt]

Just got this monitor this afternoon:

http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=6295115&CatId=167

Being off-lease, I didn't get any literature with it. I was wondering what refresh rate to set it to. I set it at 75 hz for now. I thought you set it as high as possible, then if you get any wobbling or problems you drop it lower. Is that correct?

Looks like 75 Hz is supported @

•640 x 480
•800 x 600
•1024 x 768
•1280 x 1024

resolutions so you should be good if your resolution is at one of those.

Thanks. I bumped it up to 1280 by 1024 (max) and 75 hz. Everything looks good after a couple hours.


And WOW! I knew my old CRT was bad (dark mostly) but I didn't even realize how bad. :eek: This new one is beautiful!
