Yea..and how much did you pay for it? Or what is the response time, faster/cheaper and just as good..hm yea tough choice there. :huh:
??

Actually 1920x1200 monitors are usually no more expensive then 1920x1080. The real reason why monitors are going the 1920x1080 route is because of hdmi and 1080 being the broadcast/bluray standard.
I beg to differ. They are a bit more expensive from when I was looking on Newegg when I bought mine. I figured I might as well go full resolution. Plus the 2ms response time is damn good, which I didn't see on ANY of the "name brand" lcds.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22773548 Mon, 27 Jul 2009 15:48:25 EDT Re: Need Monitor advice http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22769338 BonezX :

Alot of monitors today have moved toward 1920x1080. I hadn't bought a 24" since I got my dell 2407 in 2006, and I had a hard time finding any at 1920x1200...]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22767175 Sun, 26 Jul 2009 03:58:27 EDT Re: Need Monitor advice http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22767141 BonezX :

Buying one because of the name is retarded.

Having said that.. I have this one
»www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a···24236033

Its plug and play and I'm now using it on Windows 7 without any problems.

For the features and price its a awesome deal. I game with it to and no problems.
that looks like they inflated the price with some extra crap connected to it.
I picked that one over the others (the same brand) because it has the 1920x1200 resolution.

I love it, no dead pixels, excellent contrast ratio with very deep and defined black levels along with brilliant colors. No blurring in games such as COD4 and Quake4 and they look stunning in widescreen mode. Movies look very clean and clear. Looking back, I kind of wish I had gone with a 24 inch like you are planning to do. Spend time going through the customer reviews at Newegg for models that fit what you are looking for and you pretty much can't go wrong.

Good luck!
