"Alienware curved display rocks Crysis at 2880 x 900"

Damnnnnnnn... "The curvature of the 2880 x 900 rez screen mimics peripheral vision, and in action the performance seemed pretty flawless to our Crysis-dazzled eyes (official specs report less than .02-millisecond response time)."

If games had the option to support it, it would be even better.

not necessarily, 1080i shows more detail than 720p for a stationary shot, while 720p works better with action

I use a 22" LG LCD 1080p TV for my TV and Comp. Monitor...... works like a million bucks,

I need a better Vid card to take advantage of anything for the computer graphics though

The alienware screen is pretty badass but for a bad ass tower you should check out Voodoo PC. If you got an extra $19-20K laying around and just don't know what to do with it, hit those guys up.

WoW!!! You could build yourself a really nice system, but it would cost as much as some new cars...

Everything is SOOO distorted. He needs to get on downloading the drivers so he can get differant resolution. Or just buy a new tower.

I was just curious as to what there going to cost.
