Majik..

Seeing that you want to get a projector, i take your after a affordable ' home model' rahter than a top end Marquee that would set you back 1000s extra..

I Hooked up my DLP Benq PB8220.. it goes up to 720P and has a nice contrast ratio, decent lamp life, Nice Color temp. At a nice affordable Price. (around only £900 now)


Here are Some Videos I’ve Captured Using the Following:



Capturing Device: Sanyo Xacti HD Camcorder
Capturing Rate: 640 x 640 @ 60fps
Display: Benq PB8220 DLP Projector

Feed: Althon 64 4700+, Nvidia 7800, 1 GIG Ram.

Contrast ratio: This says’ Marque’e, its actually my benq. It still holds its own against a normal CRT/LCD plasma.. (tho not on the same level as my Marquee)

Although these Videos still dont really do the contrast much justice.. they do a decent job still.

Edit:

Overal for me, the main advantage of my Projectors apart from visual quality (Marquee). is that Your not just playin the game but your IN the game.. Especially on a system that can churn out 60fps..
