Anyone use a 24" Monitor?

[sqeaky4100]

I'm looking to buy a 24" monitor for my main monitor... however, will it work very well with WoW considering it only runs at 1680x1050?

How do you have it set up if you have one?

I had this same problem also and found the solution on these forums somewhere after lots of searching. I wanted to use the 1920x1200 resolution. Go into the folder with keyclone, and open the Keyclone.ini file. This may also show up as the configuration settings under type. Find the region and set up these settings as below. After you do that and save I think you have to click on the file again and make it read only. I think thats what I did.
region_00=1,0,0,1920,1200,0,0

My monitor rush at 1920x1200 I have one of the first dell 2405's

i use twin Dell 240X series ( one 2407 and one 2408 ) which both get 1920x1200, which is super nice b/c i can have my main on the center monitor and 4x 960x600 windows for the 4 slave toons on the right monitor.

I used to have just one 1920x1200 24" and a Samsung 210B (1280x1024) and that was ok, but the windows were ~1/2 the size i'm rolling now and made reading any kind of text in the slave windows pretty much impossible.

If its possible budget wise, i would suggest at least 1 24" with a 1920x1200 resolution, for slaves if nothing else since you can set them up with alternate camera views (i use my slave windows to scout my peripheral vision and top-down (zoomed out) to see if someone is sneaking up behind me while i'm traveling.

I already have a 2407 actually haha ( it's my slaves monitor, and my main is a 22" )... I never knew you could set WoW to 1920x1200... but somebody mentioned that WoW only gives you the option to set it to whatever your max monitor resolution is, correct?


Few quesitons for you, I'll also PM them because theyre very important ( $600 important haha ):

1) How good is the 2408? I heard good things about it, improvements over the 2407, but I want a personal opinion.

2) How well does WoW run at 1920x1200?
- If I can run 5 account total right now, 1 @ 1680x1050, and 4 on the Dell 24"... it runs fine like that - will it run fine with one running at 1920x1200?

3) How does the Dell handle fast motions? Ive had a few problems with screen tearing with my 2407 ( though Im 90% sure thats only on inputs like Composite or component )

4) Can you compare the 2407 to the 2408 a bit? I want to know if its better/worst/ etc? Did they improve the horrible component imputs?? ( my 2407's component imputs suck )


Thanks a ton for the input your exactly the guy I need! Because its the setup Im looking to do.

I am using a Dell 24 inch full HD monitor. I play single player WOW at 1900x1200 and it works fine in DVI or VGA mode. I am currently either double or triple boxing but the resoultion does have to be smaller then. Works fine though! Enjoy!

I'm using a DoubleSight 26" LCD here. I edited the config.wtf and set the resolution where I wanted it. I've tried it at 1920x1200 (native resolution) and it worked great. I'm sitting at about 1400x1108 or something now, so I can run the smaller 2nd wow for my priest alongside it.
