- giantrobot 5y agoIt was several years after the 1600sw came out that I had a machine with DVI. I've still never seen one in person. The industrial design looked really nice but I have no idea if the panel quality was decent.
- tannhaeuser 5y agoThe TN panel, especially the black level, was crap compared to modern IPS let alone OLED LCDs, but was decent enough that SGI guaranteed a reference color garmut, with compensation algorithms over the panel's lifetime. I bought mine towards the end of the product's lifecycle at a good price with converter included, and ran it with high-end (at the time) nvidia cards on Linux without problem.
- giantrobot 5y agoI'm glad to hear the panels were nice or at least not the same crap as early VGA panels. My first desktop LCD panel was a G5 iMac. I had a big Trinitron monitor for a long time and lusted after a 1600sw.
