Talk:QXGA

Bit about some 21" CRT's can be used at QXGA, by running them outside their specifications is misleading:

I have two IBM P275 21" FD Trinitron monitors which list 2048x1536@75Hz (VESA GTF) as their maximum rated resolution.

Clearly this is inside the manufacturers ratings, Although my particular monitors (which are second hand and a couple of years old) are a little bit blurry, but this may well be my Video Cards DAC.

Note the recommended resolution is 1600x1200@85Hz (VESA 106.3kHz), does anyone know if this means it is the best for reducing eye strain, or if the screen is not guaranteed to have good clarity beyond this?

A link to the monitor is provided below:

 * Manufacturers generally dont recommend to use a higher resolution than the maximum that can be defined with the number of dots on the screen. Even if a monitor accepts a signal with 2048 vertical pixel, the user will not see such high a resolution if the screen size is too small relative to the dot size. This is further complicated by the fact that in many CRT monitors the pixels are not arranged in a rectangular fashion, giving distortions to the fine details of the image when a high-resolution (rectangularly arranged) raster image is fed to a device using triangular arrangement of the subpixels.

Out of date
Some good effort went into this article through early 2007 and then it abruptly stopped. Unless there's a volunteer to research the current model line up in a similar way and replace that text, for the sake of accuracy the obsolete information ought to be deleted. patsw (talk) 16:34, 29 June 2008 (UTC)


 * We should also delete all the wars, historical events, and anything old. I think you are missing the point wikipedia.  If those are the most notable for their time period, it is still noteworthy.  I think some of the high resolution monitors and laptops were made during the "dot com boom" and now there is not as much money put into Research and Development, so we don't get the high resolution stuff nowadays.  If you know of any monitors that are better, then just add it.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.131.7.209 (talk) 04:38, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for some directions to search.

 * www.eyevis.co.uk/pdf/Datasheets/LCD%20Displays/EYE-LCD6400_4K_en.pdf
 * It appears as if these are two new "resolutions" that are available, QHD (Quad High Def - 3840x2160) and
 * 4K (4096x2160) four channels at 4 times the 2K (2048x1080)
 * It looks as if there is a lot of redundancy with monitor resolutions on wikipedia, with each being somewhat different.

 * Also, it looks like Barco isn't done there -- http://www.barco.com/en/medical/product/2195 has their 10MP display; which if they stick to their current form factor I believe puts them at a whopping 4096x2560! And in a 30" form factor.  They say release is pending FDA approval.  Lauciusa (talk) 22:24, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
