Dell SP2309W review

in Monitors

Verdict

A unique resolution, but it's largely wasted on a glossy consumer TFT like this.

Fantastic Monitor

For the price this is a great monitor, I've had mine for nearly a year now and love it. The high resolution is great for professional work.

Which graphics cards?

Hi folks, I've had my dual screen setup for six months now...yes two of these monitors side by side using ergotron swing arm desk mount, sligtly overkill I know.

One thing I didn't check before I plunged was my graphics card capability, I'm struggling to find a card which clearly states it can handle dual 2048 x 1152 resolution. One of the monitors is being run in a lower res. as my card cannot handle all the pixels!

Can anyone offer any advice please, within suitable lower budget terms!

Also a fantastic monitor

Ahh, I forgot to say that this monitor is fantastic, so much real estate size. Very productive! The standard mount supplied is also very flexible and more than ergonomic for everyone's desired position.

Leaves you feeling Like something is missing..

This Monitor looks amazing , from a looks perspective. If only the Monitor display matched the looks! I bought one from Dell recently and sent it straight back. The blacks weren't convincing and the Whites were exactly as described in the review. i needed a good versatile monitor and this is not the one. Games look a tad washed out. The Colours seem off balance. quite disappointed when i expected so much!
