| #'''What do you think of the [[Wikipedia:Apple Cinema HD Display|Apple Cinema HD Display]]?'''<br />I've been using Apple Cinema Displays for several years now with both [[Wikipedia:nVIDIA|nVIDIA]] and [[Wikipedia:ATI|ATI]] display adapters, starting with the original 22" Cinema Display. I was tempted for a while by the Samsung 24" display, but it wasn't a big enough step forward and had problems running at its native resolution with DVI inputs. The 30" version is great, and I would recommend it as a significant improvement over the 22" or 23" versions. It works fine for games or movies. I run 2560 by 1600 for my desktop and for games that support that resolution (e.g. Source games, WoW, ...). I made a half-hearted attempt to get two [http://www.apple.com/displays/specs.html Apple Cinema HD Displays] working simultaneously, but the connectors interfered with each other. Most of the machines at Valve have Dell 24" LCD monitors, and a number of people have those set up in dual monitor configurations.

| #'''Do you get playable framerates at 2560 by 1600?'''<br />I get 150 to 170 FPS out of the [[Counter-Strike: Source]] VST depending upon what set of tweaks I'm running that day. That's with vsynch disabled, 16X aniso, and 6X AA.
