    Default monitor help.

    http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/p...n&sku=320-1070

    how is this for 197$ I been shopping around for the last few days and dell just got this 30% off weekend. my office room isn't big, so the 24 inch would do very nicely. I just need some confirmations so I can buy this thing.

    edit: I will be using it for games and work, so I will be staring at it alot.

    Have you had your daily dose of fear yet? craziii

    I would save up a bit more, and get a monitor/tv that can do 120hz or better.

    Your games will run far better

    1080p, TN, $200 I suppose I would go as far as saying that's keenly priced, shop around and see if you can get it cheaper elsewhere.

    You don't need 120hz, all the screens so far are limited in size and there general performance and colour representation is poor and they carry a huge premium which offers little in the way of benefit. If you looking to do any graphic design work I would agree with Killzone and say save up a bit more but get an IPS or S-PVA display for better colour representation, TN's are poor for type of thing.

    basically it is either this or the ultrasharp. I don't do anything graphics related work though. so TN is fine so long as I get no ghosting. I thought no one replied to this. already bought it after I got some advice from other forums I visit. thanks.
