Could you do a 27" 1920x1080?

Should be pretty good if you're just looking for an everyday monitor and just looking for extra display real-estate

If you can wait a couple more months... I think prices will continue to drop. This holiday season sale wasn't very good and retailers will react by probably aggressively discounting further on the next holiday..

Hahaha yeah... especially if you're going to be playing FPS games. It really depends on what types of games you're going to be playing exactly..

What happens when the keys start popping out without being able to stick them back in? Super glue? :p

I think that may be because of WLED back-lighting.

Yeah I've used the older version of Apple 27" cinema displays for gaming via PC as well. It is mind blowing.... The colors are very vibrant.. but I hear that if get a U3011 it's so much more worth it..

What state is that? California?

Um.. if you're looking for good colors I would recommend you to do IPS or VA... TN would be the fastest for FPS gaming, but I wouldn't exactly consider BF3 and skyrim FPS games, but then that would depend on your own perspective. If you want FPS monitors then it's pretty much TN based 120hz...

I agree to go with Dell, but not necessarily true about the service. Because whatever brand you get you will only have valid warranty within the United States, therefore Dell Canada will not provide warranty for your monitor. Unless policies have changed recently, I believe that should still be...

Have you thought about VA panel based monitors? They're not as good for heavy FPS gaming, but it sounds like that isn't your main focus anyway. Although most people complain about VA panel's ghosting and what not, I use one for gaming myself and don't see any ghosting or lag. Perhaps because I'm...

Seriously?! Have you actually seen one? That sounds a bit unlikely to be true... given it's Taobao.com I doubt it's legit. And that would cost a fortune to manufacture because that is really customized panel sizes which are not scaled for production...

Take a look at the BenQ XL2420T, it's brand new. And it has some cool features that most monitors don't have. They have a scaling system which lets you adjust through the OSD to change the screen size from widescreen to 4:3. Also they have a new black equalizer system which allows you to...

Some old monitors such as the V2400 Eco is all white if you interested. I think they'd be hard to find nowadays too haha

What are you going to mainly use the monitor for? It sounds like you're probably looking for IPS Dell Ultrasharp?
