No but mine will be bigger than yours :p

moving on... I've now decided to watercool the GPU. There's no way I'll be having decent noise and heat levels with stock air cooling. So I might as well learn to build a water cooled rig. Saw that Powercolor has a water blocked HD 6990 but as far as I can tell it'll hit the shelves October 1st in Denmark and that might just be too long a wait for me. Second option is to put the water blocks on a refrence 6990 myself though the blocks will run me 100£ each! (ouch).

Does any1 of you have experience building WC?

just ordered the Dell u2412m, will be on my desk within a weeks time :) .

over @ tftcentral they have a calibrations database which I'll be trying out.

Samsung announced the S24A650 which also looks decent though its 1920x1080 (16:9)

uhuh - order the parts (excluding cooling) and I'm pretty exited and shaky (a lot of dough to put on the table at once). Will build it without cooling to and then go from there (see if I can live with the jet plane noise...). Some items are out of stock so I will have to wait to the middle of this month before all the parts will arrive :~ .
