As best as I can determine, this monitor is no longer made. So if I
replace it, would I also have to replace the twin? If I replace it (or
both), would I also have to replace the graphics card? And then the
updating of the driver and operating system, that I dread!
No, if it's just the monitor, then no, you don't have
to twin the new one, or replace the GPU, and therefore
don't need to change drivers or OS. Just plug and play.
What would a new monitor equivalent or better than the old one cost?
I'd be surprised if it were not "4 digits". (What is available that is
"equivalent"?)
This is a list of 'equivalent' monitors from my local store
(in Canadian dollars)
What I asked for was 27", 2560 x 1440 resolution, and it seems that
6ms response time is obsolete now (current models are faster)
The only thing I didn't check for was 'colour accuracy'.
