    Need Monitor Recommendation

    If you have the money, just stick with ACD. You prob won't like anything else by now. Dell's monitors are known to be a little bright. If you dislike Ultrasharp that much, I doubt you will like U2410s or 2209WA. Coming from ACD, the only other brand I would consider is NEC. But it's not...

    Looking for a new display 24+ inch display gaming and movies.

    All the monitors mentioned are pretty dated. You said you need "colour accuracy," I would sacrifice Hanns' larger real estate for better quality. In addition to your list, I would suggest you look at the following in Canada: 1. Dell U2410, despite of colour shifting panels, it's still the...

    Can someone diagnose the problem with my Samsung T240HD?

    Hook it up to another monitor and see if it does the same. If it's the T240HD, take it back to the seller and get an exchange. Call Samsung for warranty if you past the return period from the seller. They can probably help you better with a close up look than pictures you can provide online.

    SAMSUNG T240HD Vs. ASUS VW266H

    If you don't care for tv tuner, then the NEC EA231WMi (ips) and the Samsung XL2370 (tn) would be better choices, imo. But if a big screen is priority number one, either Asus VW266H or T260HD is fine.

    Is the ASUS VW266H the best big/quality panel for 300$?

    +1 It's bad enough having to come home and listen to the family bickering. Now have to see this online. Those two should just leave each other alone and let each spend his/her money however they see fit. Bottomline: if you have lots of money, $/performance is not the priority. In terms of...

    Samsung XL2370 don't get into energy saving mode after pc shutdown

    Well...in your original post, you asked if other people agree. Why even ask if you already made up your mind. I didn't say I think it's reasonable to leave the monitor on for several hours. But why would a user leave it on, when he can as easily turn off the monitor after he shuts down the...

    Samsung XL2370 don't get into energy saving mode after pc shutdown

    In their email, they meant "normal" as in all the XL2370 are designed to behave like that. Which can be different from today's "normal" design where the monitor goes to power saving mode. Personally I have an habit of turning off my monitor manually to save power, so...

    NEC 23" IPS EA231WMi

    Google "buy Nec EA231WMi + your city/country" is generally helpful. Other parts of your question can be googled for answer as well. Also, because you didn't provide a location, so people cannot really answer your question. I understand people don't want to flip through 100+ pages, but this...

    BEST IPS Monitor $500 or less

    Why would they compare IPS to a TN panel? I guess most panels are compare to CRT because CRT produced better colour. There's no point using TN panel as a baseline for different IPS panel comparison.

    Thank god for Korean companies

    Trolling? Are you serious. The clip isn't fake, and you say I am trolling for pointing it out? How about that guy, who dis the legitimacy of the clip and tom's hardware site. Nice Japanese link btw. They have some pretty good prank on that show. But just saying, Korean LCD companies...

    Are LG Computer Monitors Good?

    How come there's no popular LG 24"+ monitors? Even though other brands use LG panels.

    Thank god for Korean companies

    If you think that's fake, you'll be blow out of your mind what they don't show you. Seriously, Asian cultures don't like to do fake thing as much as western people...ie. jackass the movie, American Pie...etc.
