Hey everyone. I ordered my DF-02 MS today!! thats gonna be cool sitting next to my TRF501X! I got it cheap at a local hobby store. I don't need to know how much tex paid now. I plan to race it in stock buggy class. Currently I race a B4. I thought it would be cool to race ALL my classes with Tamiya vehicles. I wish Tamiya would come out with a full blown race 2wd buggy though. Here in Michigan we have a "Vintage" class that I race a Frog in. Anyway, thanks for everyones help.

Random question - assuming my Ati Radeaon 9800 Pro 128 MB vid card (a bit old, but not as old as my proc!) can handle a 19" widescreen LCD just fine....would anyone forsee problems handling a bigger, 22" widescreen just as well?

I don't play FPS games, but I enjoy RPG and RTS - so I want video performance, but don't need it insanely fast (or I'd get a new PC setup..heh).

Thoughts?

Are you trying to run the 22" at higher resolution compare to the 19", though?!

I wish I have a graphic card, so I can run the RealFlight, LOL!!

Good question - the 19" wide runs 1440 x 900 native, the 22" wide runs 1680 x 1050. (Same with a 20" wide I'm considering instead of the 22).

So it is a higher resolution for the vid card. The card appears to support it - the question is, will it choke on it? I'm really not up for buying a new gfx card right now....

I currently run a 20" CRT with it just fine. But my resolution I run at is like 1280 x 1024 or less (will have to check at home).
