2430T or the 2420/11z models should all be reasonably good updates since the TE model.
Also after calibration nearly all these monitors are the same in terms of color quality.

flufnPeople at my school have spent thousands of dollars on shoes. Why?
This hobby confuses me
Idk caring about something you wear just about every day and determines your standing posture sounds like a reasonable choice to be an enthusiast about, especially when you fit in comfort, performance, etc for xyz task.
Game of Throws
Kawaii 5-0
have to be 2 of my favorites I've heard.
peltthere are ways to make the game look a lot worse, but comanglia decided that the actual performance benefit they provide is negligible
that and some of them are bugged
mat_picmip -1 is a lot crisper than 2 but a lot of people have issues with 2.
plus some other ways that are banned in ESEA and I think etf2l as well.
Where can you get the refresh models, after looking for awhile I can only find ones with the specs of the original ones.
might give zowie another try with the new switches.
Jurassic World Blu-Ray
to actually be surprised by a reasonable good gift.
MeatballHLMI don't have quad core processor on my laptop but it has hyper threading dual core, is it fine to use "for Hi Quality PC" version config?
I'm using mid quality pc version currently.
Try using the high quality one, I believe it should work without crashing for you.
If you crash within 10-15 min of playing on any server go back to the mid-quality one.
fade-sombrezhow do you even make the game use your gpu more? do you just have to enable dx9? or is it something else that's more complicated?
turn up textures and stuff so that it gets offloaded from cpu and put on gpu or something
no it doesn't
TF2 is a very black and white in what they use in resources
example 1 mat_picmip will always use you gpu regardless of setting
example 2 r_lod will always use your cpu
this is true for basically every graphic related command in tf2
wickedplayer494Feel free to take shits on me all you want, but the fact of the matter is Valve can't afford to keep supporting your antiquated setups forever. If anything you should be thankful that they even bothered supporting XP and DX8 past 2013.
You're an idiot.
Why?
Direct X 9 was released with Windows XP. Currently that's the best TF2 can do. With your reasoning Valve should just completely kill TF2 rather than bothering with updating anything.
wickedplayer494I'm personally glad that DX9 is a requirement. DX8 is extremely antiquated (it's from even before the Windows XP days). Sure you might complain "b-b-but my FPS!", but do you see CS:GO players playing on DX8 at Valve-sponsored tournaments? Didn't think so.
I'm just so used to playing on DX 8. I've played in DX 8 for almost 3 years with short breaks to see what dx 9 feels/looks like and some testing.
I'm not terribly concerned for myself at least for the FPS drop because the mean going from 280ish to 265ish. Though their's some people who depend on dx 8 to consistently get 144 or even 60.

just fyi dx 9 is also antiquated as fuck so saying dx 8 is old isn't a real reason tbh.
wickedplayer494- To play competitive mode, you MUST be on DirectX 9 - DirectX 8 support could be killed off any day now at this rate
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
