It's $184 in Canada with coupon code currently: http://accessories.dell.com/sna/products/Monitors_Flat_Panel_Widescreen/productdetail.aspx?c=ca&l=en&cs=cadhs1&sku=320-2807 It's more common in Canada to get it for under $200. | ||

So first of all, is it worth it at all? Is there any quality in Vizio? And second, what is the difference between a monitor and a TV besides the amounts of ports and whatnot... I am clueless on the matter | ||

TVs are different to monitors because they do a whole lot more bullshit and are not suited for desktop usage. So input lag and poor text rendering is an issue. | ||

I really just want a monitor with a fairly small base that has 1080p and isn't bad. Plus is sub 200$. Why is this so hard? | ||

I was messing with some eyefinity settings in the AMD Catalyst control center and then all of a sudden appears black bars around the side of my main monitor, about one inch thick. How do i reset all the settings i have made through the catalyst control center? If i can't do that, how do i fix this problem? Home -> click the black "Default" button. Didn't work T_T. | ||

AMD catalyst control center --> My digital flat panels --> Scaling options. Adjust the slider untill your picture fills your full screen. For me, 0%. | ||

Which (contrast, input lag, response time, viewing angles, color gamut, inputs, stand, manufacturing quality, etc.) do you care about? You definitely can't have it all, definitely not under $200 anyway. Ok well I care about picture quality most of all. I also want it to at least have 1 HDMI, 1 VGA, and 1 AV port. Other than that, a good bit of contrast would be nice, and viewing angles would be appreciated. Just about anything else is negotiable. | ||

Component video in? What? Under $200, if you're fine with maybe getting unlucky with backlight bleeding or dead pixels or whatever, with a relatively small (so wobbly of course) stand, there's the Asus VS229H-P, which has a regular price of about $160: http://www.prad.de/en/monitore/review/2012/review-asus-vs229h-part8.html note: review is for VS229H; VS229H-P should be same but with overdrive controls for pixel transition responsiveness Contrast is very high for an IPS-type panel, and it seems to meet the criteria. It's only 21.5" but on the flip side that means higher pixel density at the usual 1920x1080. As for 23" options for decent picture quality, those tend to be in the $200 range or a little above, or may be a little slower or have more input lag, or something else. If you don't expect decent off-angle viewing or think that significantly shifting gamma is fine, and so on, then there's plenty of TN options out there. | ||
