    Hi guys.

    In the near future, I'll probably buy a new monitor for my home-PC.

    I have always owned a CRT monitor, 'coz always hated TFT because of the ghosting effects, although nowadays we have much better and not so expensive TFT monitors, so I'm thinking on buying one...

    they're slimmer, much good lucking, and so on and so forth, although, there is a very important aspect that we rarely think of, which one of these two Is best for the eyes?

    I'm using this CRT at 75 hertz, I heard the higher the hertz you'r using, the best for your eyes, because you'r basically looking to a huge flashing lamp turning off and on 75 times per minute, and if you have a low hertz rate on you'r monitor, this flashing will be alot more noticeable, and could harm the eyes if exposed for long periods.

    Post you'r thoughts about this subject.

    Champ, I would definitely aim to something like that If I was to renew completely my home PC.

    Probably would buy a AMD instead, they're cheaper and I think i can call myself an "AMD fanboy", just because It's the best price/cost relation around.

    And a quad-core, is too expensive nowadays, and you wouldn't benefit nothing with it on games, at least for the time being, so yeah a Core2 is a nice choice.

    Also, don't forget to buy a motherboard with a chipset capable of running DDR2 memories, 'coz DDR1 were discontinued, and they stopped at 400mhz.

    I think XFX 8800 GTX It's the perfect choice for an hardcore gamer and mapper, so my advice is buy this one, It's the best of the best, benchmarks don't lie!

    I don't know if Iiyama are any good, but if you are aiming at one of those, just make sure it's a 5ms monitor, It's the best for games, otherwise you'll get ghosting effects.

    Cheers mate.

    The bunker scene looks good. Appart from that, the screenshots just look like generic architectural renders you find in any CG sites...

    Yup, which can sorta bring something new and refreshing to the gaming world!
