jayboogie 0 Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Does anybody have the Dell 2005FPW as a monitor for poker? It's a 20.1" widescreen monitor. It's on sale currently as part of Dell's 10 days of deals and it's available at a really good price. The problem is that the max resolution is at 1680X1050, meaning there will be some overlap. What I'd like to know is if the overlap is minimal and still bareable when playing 4 tables? Obviously, I'd prefere getting a monitor with 1600X1200 as max resolution, but right now, this is a good deal going on and it's a widescreen as well, so I'm considering getting it to upgrade from my 19" right now, which I'll probably use for a dual monitor set-up. So, if anybody has insight on this, just post away. Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites

Never really seen him play more than two tables, but from the looks of it it could be done comfortably to where you could still see enough of each screen to play all of them.Hope this helps.

jayboogie 0 Posted October 21, 2005 Author Share Posted October 21, 2005 I was able to get the Dell 2001FP for just a lil bit more and went with that option instead of the 2005FPW. I wanted to make sure I got 1600X1200 resolution just to make things easier. The widescreen option would have been cool, but I guess I'll wait till later to upgrade to a bigger widescreen monitor with more resolution. Thanks for the replies. Link to post Share on other sites
