I have a Righteous 3d for almost a year now, and my default resolution
in Windows is 1024x768x16bit colors.
I am unable to notice any difference as far as 2d sharpness goes.
I've heard on the Usenet that the Righteous' pass-cable used to have a
better quality than Monster 3d...
Anyway, it seems to me that the users that noticed any kind of
degradation were working in unusually high resolutions, beyond the
common needs of the average user.
