Yamakasi Catleap Monitor Club - Page 525

I've been back and fourth in my head for a month about weather or not to buy one of these and I finally pulled the trigger just bought a catleap for 305.99 from big cloth craft, spent the last hour seriously debating who I want to order from and if I wanted the catleap or the shimian. Finally did it hopefully it will be here(parents house) by friday or saturday so I can take it with me and set it up in my new home when I'm done moving out by monday.

If these gtx 460s can't hold up I may be in the market for a 7970 soon too!

I'm so ready to join the wagon. I want to pull the trigger on one of these korean monitors mainly the catleap. Just not sure how my single 570 will handle games at that resolution even with no AA. Will upgrade to a 670 sometime this fall.

so there's a seller on eBay selling a 2B version that does 120Hz, for $529.99. would be $510 after my eBay bucks. think it's worth it? auction also says 1-2 dead pixels, but 6 sold so far. not sure if that means ALL have 1-2 dead or only some.

would love to do 100Hz with my GTX 690.

it's either this or a the BenQ XL2420T (24" 3D 120Hz 1080p)

That's the multi version. It has input lag and skips the frames once your overclock it. Completely defeats the point of overclocking because you don't see the extra frames you would running at 120hz.
It's basically a scam.

So I got mine yesterday, the shipping speed on it was amazing considering it was coming from South Korea. Ordered mine from green-sum Thursday, and had it on my porch delivered on Monday. I can find no physical defects to it at all, and the display seems perfect, I have found 0 stuck or dead pixels. It really puts my old Samsung 21inch to complete shame.

450

I don't have one of the "B" models so is most likely not able to OC, I think it's a P model if I recall correct, I'm at work currently so can't check first hand. I'm interested in seeing if I can find the parts to let me OC though, if anyone knows where to acquire them let me know. The attempts I did do at OC'ing just gave me a black screen when I clicked the "Test" button in the nVidia custom resolution panel.

I just received my monitor and I can tell what you guys mean by the stand being too unstable. Thinking of getting a monoprice stand.
But my monitor is just perfect!

No dead pixels!
No bleeding!
Perfect colors!
Included everything you need: power brick, power cord, adapter for power cord so you can use in US and DVI.

Power brick is a bit warmish, but it seems normal.

Ordered from bigclothcraft, will be buying another one sometime this week smile.gif
Really happy with it.

Don't know if I need to do the color management, did anyone else do it?
How do I know if I need to do it? Everything seems normal to me.

That's nice - I wish I could get one in the U.S. Haven't found it after searching for a bit.

I've played BF3 and Diablo 3 so far on it, and it seems fine. That being said, average FPS was around 40 in BF3 at full resolution (no AA) so I didn't notice any issues with tearing. Input lag to me seems non-existent, and no "ghosting" is apparent either.

I have a multi on the way. I had to have the inputs for consoles due to my setup. Question is, if I use the dual DVI for the PC connection and run at the native res, I should in fact not experience any lag, correct? I think the max this introduces is maybe one frame.
