[QUOTE="terrymcg, post: 1782476, member: 397750"] Hello all, Just posting as I am looking for a little guidance on a Samsung C27F591 Curved Monitor I have just bought. To cut a long story short I sold my early 2009 iMac as it was no longer updatable to the latest OSX without patching etc. I already have a Mccbook Pro late 2011 that I decided I would just use with an external monitor in place of my iMac. Also thought the 27" screen would be a boost from my old 24" screen. Its all set up and running, connected with a Mini DP to DP cable. I am just struggling with the overall quality, especially of text. Nothing seems to look as sharp as my old iMac. Not sure if I am just imagining things. Don't get me wrong, its not shocking - I just don't feel it is as good as I remember my old mac. Will it be because this Samsung monitor only has a max resolution of 1920 x 1080? What resolution would my old iMac have been running? Does anyone know if there is any way of making it sharper? None of the monitors setting seems to do much. Thanks in advance, Terry [/QUOTE]
