I'm set on WQXGA (2560x1600) at about 30". I have an old Dell 2001FP (1600x1200) I plan to put in portrait and may try to find another somewhere (that 2100fp was a great buy for $700 in 2001!).
I hate glossy/reflective coatings. I like IPS panels. I'm a gamer, but not fast enough to care about > 60Hz, and 6ms response time should be fine, my current main monitor is a doublesight 263N, I don't know what it's response time is but it must be 6-8ms and it's fine for me. I've never noticed any motion blur. I don't want the colors to be cartoonish, but I'm not going to notice slight color infidelity. I've got an HP ZR30w at work that I like, so I'm tempted by the $500 refurbished ones I see on newegg, but I'm scared to buy refurbished.
Preferred: tilt, display port and DVI-D
Nice to have but negotiable: height adjustment, USB, lack of leds on the front,
Not needed/don't care: swivel, rotate, back plate mounting, speakers, HDMI
I don't want to spend more than I have to, and probably won't buy anything if I'd have to spend more than $1200 to get something as good as the DS-263N I have now (except bigger).
So have I eliminated all possibilities or is there a match out there?
TIA
