New Widescreen Monitor

Hey everyone, i've been meaning to uprade to a widescreen monitor for a while now, since most pc games actually seem to be supporting it at last.

Anyway have been looking around and saw this, http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MO-013-AS.

Just wondering what anyone thinks of that and if it's a good buy, to be honest i dont really feel like going any higher price wise, just bought a gtx 260 a few weeks ago and dont want to go spending another load of money on my computer so soon lol.

Anyway thanks for the help and cya, Dave.

If this is the monitor your referring to ? .... http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MO-028-NE&tool=3 .... Then YES !...I'm not quite sure what the price difference equates out to in USD, but the specs and customer reviews are awesome on that monitor. And apparently it normally sells for much more than the current listing price. NEC has always made top notch panels.

I currently have been using a 20.1" LG lcd for the last 2 1/2 years and love the screen, but I have been starting to look around at LCD's, wanting to move up to a 24" like yourself. I'll need to look into this monitor...I was impressed from what I saw so far....Good Luck !

• S-IPS/H-IPS panels are generally considered the best all around panel type, but they are more expensive and very few are made. High end, expensive.
• S-PVA/MVA panels offer better color reproduction and viewing angles than TN panels, have slightly worse response times than TN or S-IPS, offer the best contrast ratios, may suffer from color shifting or input lag and have higher availability than S-IPS panels. Mid range, fair price.
• TN panels are very cheap and have the fastest response times, but suffer from inferior color reproduction, contrast ratios and viewing angles. Low end, inexpensive.

get the dell 2408WFP 24" Monitor... its an incredible screen.eddy96_1

So has anyone looked at the monitor i linked lol and not the 24inch one.NightmareChild5

Is this the monitor ? ....... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824236051

You never indicated what monitor you were looking at in your original post...I take it, it's the one in the link I posted above which I found on Newegg's site to compair to the one you posted. If it's the same monitor, it looks nice, got some overall good reviews from people that have purchased it....But the Newegg site lists it as a 21.5" screen, not 22"...It does have lot of input connections, which are nice and given the price (shown in USD's) it seems to be a good value. I know a lot of LCD's don't come with HDMI ports, so maybe that is a difference maker in the screen size, although half an inch is not that big a deal, if indeed that is the case.

I don't know what LCD makes are or are not available where your at, so if it's an issue of a limited selection and your not able to really make a larger comparison.....this one seem to be a nice deal.
