If there are better prices of other great monitor please tell I don't know much about what's the best of the low-end TN's. If you can, I'd spend $155 to get the Asus VS229H-P: http://us.ncix.com/products/?sku=69496&vpn=VS229H-P&manufacture=ASUS If not, I'd probably get this: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005BZNDOO/?tag=pcpapi-20 On April 30 2012 23:18 MoneyHypeMike wrote: Any outputs on this monitor? http://www.benq.ca/product/monitor/xl2420tx/specifications I can pick it up for around 500 before tax and shipping. The kid includes 3d glasses 2.0 and builr in receiver. It's the exact same thing as the XL2420T except that the TX is more expensive because the 3D receiver is built into the monitor. This monitor is mentioned in the OP. It's good for what it is, with the typical downsides of using a TN panel.

And the scaling won't be a problem right? Most graphics cards can deal with it so there won't be vertical stretching Yep. | ||

Yeah its a roulette. Some people have got really good stuff out of them while others have got DOA models. Apparently they're A- panels so these manufacuters probably get whatever Dell, HP, Apple don't want...which would explain why some of these so called glossy monitors have antiglare coatings. If its bad enough, you can probably talk to PayPal since they're pretty pro-buyer/anti-seller. You can probably get a refund because its so bad. Have you tried this?

Just want to know if it sucks IIRC the VE series is the series that is pretty good for a TN monitor. Since you're in Europe and get slugged with VAT, you probably didn't do half bad. | ||

PLANAR PL2410W 24" $169.99 ASUS VS248H-P 24" $179.99 HP 2311x 23" $166.19 (I can get it for $166 through my school's discount program). I'm in a small town and don't have a convenient place to check these out in person. Any help would be appreciated. | ||

That Asus monitor has pretty noticeable reverse ghosting and HP monitors are typically more expensive than they should be. thanks for the reply, but i'm an idiot and didn't realize the planar isn't LED and has like twice the power consumption (i assume runs hotter) of the others. you till consider HP overpriced after the discount? what do you think of Hanns? some random recommended this on tomshardware.

Have you tried this? i did. the only solution they could offer me was to ship it back to korea on my own dime and get reimbursed my original purchase price minus the $140 out of pocket to send it back. i understood what i was buying but even for an A- panel it is totally unacceptable. | ||

Hanns-G HL249DPB Black 23.6" $164.99 Doesn't matter if its CCFL. The only displays that get hot are very high end professional ones...those actually kick out a lot of heat. And the only one that I have heard of that actually suffered from overheating issues was the Samsung 305T. The HP isn't bad just extremely glossy. If that's what you want, its a decent enough TN monitor. On May 02 2012 23:39 Wabbit wrote: Is there any reason to get that Planar over the Asus VS229H-P though? No, if its the same price. | ||

It is, $164 with free shipping from Amazon. The only reason I can think of to get a TN instead in the same price range is if the person hates the anti-glare and wants a glossy monitor. I can't think of any glossy IPS near $200. | ||
