Damn, that cost more than a 100 bucks more than my 32" HDTV...which I can also use as a monitor when I like ;) It looks like it's of good quality to me, though.Staryoshi87yes but does your 32" hdtv go up to 1080p? this monitor can I think since its native resolution is 1920x1200, also I can get a HDMI to DVI adapter for my ps3 if i want to use it for 1080p (not movies since it lacks HDCP of course but games should be fine), and plus since it has component, svideo, and composite all on the monitor I can easily plug any of my old game systems and new game systems in especially the 360 which hopefully will be able to get 1080p through component on this monitor. Also since its not as big but still big, 24", I can easily transport the monitor if I want to bring it with me somewhere.

Only 720p, but 2x component, composite, 1xHDMI, VGA, DVI, PS3 sucks btw, Svideo, yep, it's got everything and more, outside of 1080p. That's why I've got my 20.1" monitor that cost less than 300 ;)

That's why I've got my 20.1" monitor that cost less than 300 ;) Yea I am still considering saving some money and maybe getting this or.....newegg is messed up right now.....anyways should I go for a 20.1 " with the same native resolution as a 22" , 1690x1050 since the pixels will be smaller and a little bit crisper and clearer, or should i go for the more viewing space? those being priced around 250-300. Or should i spend a little more and go for a 24" getting native resolutions of 1920x1200 spending around 600-750. Also keep in mind my system is only an AGP 7600GT overclocked to 625/1600 so I honestly probably would not be able to run stable framerates at 1920x1200, but definately at 1680x1050
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824176073 That's the one I got. I wouldn't recommend getting a high end monitor like the 24" unless you're going to commit to building a new comp. It should be great on current games at 1680x1050, tho. I'm getting myself a nice 2k system w/an 8800GTX to use my new monitor...drool...part time jobs ftw...
I don't want to talk about ps3s here...but yes, it does suck (imo). little to no software support, nerfed online, already outdated hardware (8 cores don't do any good if they're meant for multimedia and not gaming...), forced blu-ray...my list goes on...but that's just IMO as I said a second ago. Buy whatever you want.
