I'll say it again there is no A03 revision for 2407, not even in the US of A, you must be mistaken with 2005/7 . I don't know anything about 'virtual 8 bit panel' but i do know that dell 2407FPW uses Samsung LTM240M2 8 bit panel which is fully capable of displaying 16.7 million colours.
The A02 revision has the firmware version as V1B15 whereas the earlier versions were V1B11 which showed severe banding etc. issues. The panel used is the same Samsung LTM240M2 8 bit panel.

@W I D E S C R E E N
yes your rig will handle the display nicely.:cool:

Sorry for bumping an old thread... useful info for ppl getting the Dell 2407

*www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1091428

2407 a03... fixes all existing issues...

Now Mr Bad Guy I guess you should shut up :p
 
Dude when that post was made there was no A03, I have nothing against you.
And i have posted about the A03 In other posts here ealier. And FYI the A03 are A02's just with increased OSD languages support. No issues have been fixed whatsoever.

BUT WAIT

Tell me one thing widescreen, the quotation you recieved from dell, what did it say?? '2407WFP' or '2407FPW'

And don't worry about the A03 revision pal, it has just fixed some OSD language issues, rest is A02.

Thats what dell claims but people are finding something else... check that hardforum thread for comparisons. I saw an a03 for sure... cos we get stuff from dell even b4 its released to the public :p.

Here is a side by side comparison

Get it replaced with A03, you won't have to be without a monitor. When you apply for replacement they send you another one and you put this one in the new ones box and ship it back, replacements are smooth.

Mine is in "customs clearance" as well... it's expected around the 15th or so. It'll probably turn out to be an A02 as well.

Hey, widescreen.. how bad is the vertical banding? did you do a gradient test to see it or was it noticeable during regular usage?

Also try and post a few pix to keep me sated till mine arrives.

I assume you're using DVI and the "desktop" mode?

No need for replacing if you don't notice the banding in normal use.
The display sure looks sssswwweeeeeettt, but i had to pay Rs.43891 for mine:confused:..... maybe its the taxes??

Anyway GTA was smooth with your 7800GT na??


EDIT: Sorry, forgot you posted your rig in the 1st page.
