Posted December 21, 200915 yr Well I think its time to replace my old trusty 17" CRT (: Suggestions? Was looking at 21.5"/22" monitors. Also not looking to go over $200, i'm not rich atm. :hi: http://www.bigd.com.au/_bigdfiles/sigs/mh-sig-2016-11.png
December 21, 200915 yr AaaannnnnnDDDD GO! http://www.staticice.com.au/cgi-bin/search.cgi?q=lcd+22%22&spos=3 http://users.on.net/~mperrin/images/les_mis_kindros.png You're all wrong, and I am always right, and the sooner you accept it, the happier you will be. That is all! Va Fan Culo
December 21, 200915 yr I'm in the same boat as you Madhouse I was looking at a Benq G2420 which is around $250 but not sure most people say to avoid them because of the warranty. I don't really know much about monitors which is where my problem lies. "Aerodynamics are for people who cannot build engines"...... Enzo Ferrari unicorns are awesome!
December 21, 200915 yr Author Well I know that the lower the ms the better.. I think..? Lol I was looking at a 23" acer going for 180$.. but it didn't sound right. http://www.bigd.com.au/_bigdfiles/sigs/mh-sig-2016-11.png
December 21, 200915 yr On WP the suggestions are: - BenQ if you don't mind taking a risk with their relatively cruddy warranty and lack of DP policy after the first 2 weeks - LG/Samsung if you want a nice monitor with lots of warranty perks - ASUS is ok That's all I can think of for now... This one is highly recommended on WP, although I have no idea about it http://staticice.com.au/cgi-bin/search.cgi?q=2333SW+&spos=1 http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee94/psyrus_uraya/awards-1.png QFT: Your computer is smart man.

December 21, 200915 yr I've got an LG WTQ...something something (I'm at work atm). Best. Monitor. Ever. Possibly out of your pricerange though. Will update post when I get homez. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
December 21, 200915 yr was it the benq that's the one I'm looking at but I'm getting mixed reports on it "Aerodynamics are for people who cannot build engines"...... Enzo Ferrari unicorns are awesome!
December 21, 200915 yr I know you don't have the cash, but cheap LCD's aren't renowned for the colour reproduction (CRT's are better than LCD TN panels). I thought you were into your graphics...? http://imgur.com/e5y6e.gif You've already ruined these forums for me, I have no desire to read your rhetoric or the pathetic arguments you get yourself in to, or the personal vendetta you have against me, so please, do not talk to me. Ever. About anything.
December 21, 200915 yr I suppose it's a case of if he cares for pixels per dollar or if green is vibrant green. The IPS panels I've looked at tend to have a fair amount of input lag etc, but apparently (been a while since I read up) less bleeding? http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee94/psyrus_uraya/awards-1.png QFT: Your computer is smart man.

December 21, 200915 yr was it the benq that's the one I'm looking at but I'm getting mixed reports on it viewsonic, havent had a problem in 4 months that ive had it, best mate has one too had it for about 18 months hasn't had a problem
December 21, 200915 yr Author Isn't it 1680x900? http://www.bigd.com.au/_bigdfiles/sigs/mh-sig-2016-11.png
December 21, 200915 yr Isn't it 1680x900? 1920 by 1080 = 16:9, 1680by 1050 = 16:10... so no. When in trouble or in doubt, RUN IN CIRCLES SCREAM AND SHOUT!!! [url]http://nanourl.net/46e85[/url]
December 21, 200915 yr Author Yer but 1680x900 is 16:9 http://www.bigd.com.au/_bigdfiles/sigs/mh-sig-2016-11.png
December 21, 200915 yr Yes but the pixels are scaled differently on the 16:9 bezel size [22"] monitors, so they still show as 1680x1050 afaik. http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee94/psyrus_uraya/awards-1.png QFT: Your computer is smart man.

The IPS panels I've looked at tend to have a fair amount of input lag etc, but apparently (been a while since I read up) less bleeding? input lag, yes. my 8 bit dell is 6ms. never noticed any problems. bleeding is also monitor design, so you can't rule that with an ips vs a tn. tn have poorer viewing angles. just saying, if accurate colour reproduction is important to him, then it's got to sway his purchase. personally, and with the amount of photo work i do, i wouldn't buy a cheapie. photographers, graphic designers, photoshop gurus - those type of people. http://imgur.com/e5y6e.gif You've already ruined these forums for me, I have no desire to read your rhetoric or the pathetic arguments you get yourself in to, or the personal vendetta you have against me, so please, do not talk to me.

December 21, 200915 yr Author I do all my photoshop/ web dev on my laptop. As for the pc, its just for abit of gaming and general surfing. http://www.bigd.com.au/_bigdfiles/sigs/mh-sig-2016-11.png
December 21, 200915 yr well then, tn panel for you. http://imgur.com/e5y6e.gif You've already ruined these forums for me, I have no desire to read your rhetoric or the pathetic arguments you get yourself in to, or the personal vendetta you have against me, so please, do not talk to me.

December 21, 200915 yr Author Whats that mean...? http://www.bigd.com.au/_bigdfiles/sigs/mh-sig-2016-11.png
December 21, 200915 yr It's like the 'gaming' type of panel, fast response rate but imagine like duller colours. They're also generally quite a bit cheaper than IPS panels. As SOP said, if you're doing photographic, web development or pretty much anything that the colour reproduction could be really critical, TN panels are considered inferior. That's not to say they're terrible, but yeah you don't get nearly the accuracy and vibrancy of an IPS panel. SOP, do you know much about OLED screens? MSY sell the BenQ OLED 26" I think? But that's closer to $400 http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee94/psyrus_uraya/awards-1.png QFT: Your computer is smart man.

December 21, 200915 yr Got an AOC 24", which has worked well - cost me about $00 but that was over a year back - was one of the cheaper ones back then. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
December 21, 200915 yr Yer but 1680x900 is 16:9 nah thats math fail there... thats 16.8:9 your looking for 1600by900 When in trouble or in doubt, RUN IN CIRCLES SCREAM AND SHOUT!!! [url]http://nanourl.net/46e85[/url]
