Got this monitor because it has multiple inputs for everything. (HDMI/DVI/VGA/Component/Composit/S-Video/USB) 3 ms response. Don't have model # unfortunately but it's made by gateway and I got it ~2 years ago. (well under $300 retail afaik) | ||

I feel that 27" is too big, thinking of getting a 24". | ||

Look okay... Resolution is fine so is refresh rate but i dunno about the quality  TN panels are kinnda meh, but for the price its reasonable. | ||

 I'm planning on upgrading to a dual monitor (2 x 24 inch) because then i can watch vids while playing sc2 while working and msning  But in all seriousness, it'll be nice to upgrade... only upside to this 19 inch is that it has cables for me to plug my 360 into as well and switch inputs | ||

The 1080p ones are cheaper around here, but still finding it hard to decide between the two. ![[image loading]](http://h-1.abload.de/img/sc2_fov36k6.gif) 16:10 = 1920x1200 16: 9 = 1920x1080 Since 1080p is native, you actually get to see more. | ||

Too bad my computer doesn't have a powerful enough graphics card.... Since the iMac can function as an external monitor, I'm going to build a tower eventually and use it like that. | ||

I was on 15.6 inch monitor for 3 years, so jumping to a 23-inch monitor was really a sore to my eyes and difficult to cope with at the beginning. Give it a few months and you'll be wanting a bigger monitor again. I thought 24" was the sweet spot until I got 27" | ||

Yeah I suppose it does depend fairly heavily on how far you sit from your monitor. Mine is fairly far back so I can fit a tablet, keyboard etc in front without it being cramped. 27" works great for me | ||

When if comes to response times on monitors of course. ^^ in LCD monitors the response time usually means gray to gray or black to white pixel response which reduces the after image ie ghosting that a few people can pick up on. Short of a high speed camera anything under 8ms is really hard to pick up on. the pixel response doesn't have much to do with the actual input latency of the monitor. Although if you are one of those people view sonic sells 120hz which have across the board better response times then the avg monitor, or you can buy the 1ms monitor, but it's likely under a gaming preset that turns off some things and really dips in the image quality. to me i rather spend that kind of money on a ips monitor from them and get better viewing angles and color accuracy. | ||
