Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Dell U2412M
Actually not "like" it ... love it! I'm a monitor novice, so when I upgraded from an old 17" TN/CCFL to the U2412M, wow! Yeah I was surprised too about it being Rev. A02. I delayed my monitor purchase for a few extra months, hoping any early manufacturing or quality issues would be cleared up... -

Dell U2412M
This is for 10e and all the contributors on this thread. Thank you for providing information that convinced me to make the big jump to this IPS/LED monitor. I just got my U2412M and am thrilled with it. Even better than I expected! Don't get me wrong, I lack the monitor expertise that many... -

Dell U2412M
Yeah, that's kind of what I'm thinking too. Actually $300 is the top of my price range for a monitor so I hope I can get it at that price. Would you happen to know if watching DVD or Blu-ray movies on U2412M produces any kind of viewing limitations such as ghosting, motion blurring, or response... -

Dell U2412M
Sounds excellent. I earlier narrowed my monitor choice list down to U2412M, P2412H, or Samsung S24A650D. After further in-store research, I think I will go with the U2412M. Does U2412M have any ghosting, response time, or other viewing limitations specifically when watching DVD or Blu-ray... -

Dell U2412M
Impulse, your point about wider aspect movies is spot on so I'm not real concerned about the black bars (since my primary use is office work, web browsing, and web videos). I checked out vertical and horizontal viewing problems on the latest TN panels from Viewsonic, LG, Samsung, AOC, Asus, HP... -

Dell U2412M
I am still hemming and hawing between getting the Dell U2412M or P2412H - I really like the looks and design of both monitors (same design). Primary purpose: office work, reading documents, web browsing, viewing web videos. Secondary purpose: DVD movies (maybe Blu-ray in future), photo... -

Best 24" Monitor for New Desktop
I checked out IPS and TN monitors at a local store and my new short list (in preference order) is: P2412H, U2412M, S24A650D. I'm also considering other 24+" TN monitors. I looked at U2711 and LG IPS236V at the store. The AG coating wasn't noticeable to me. I saw the IPS glow on the two... -

Dell U2412M
A new 24" screen won't have much more vertical height than my old 17" Dell, so vertical gamma shift shouldn't bother me (I don't notice it on my 17" screen but as you said maybe my mind is filtering it out). I've viewed 24" TN panels in Best Buy and didn't notice any TN glow. I'll go to BB... -

Dell U2412M
Snowdog, your post and photos were very helpful. Still considering U2412M. Vertical viewing angle issue is only noticeable on my old 17" Dell E173FP when looking from below - color is darker at screen top than bottom ("gamma shift?"). But who looks up at their screen? I sit directly in front of... -

Dell U2412M
Many HardForum experts scoff at TN. I've been using a 17" Dell E173FP (TN/CCFL) for 7 years. When viewing a black screen, there's excellent screen uniformity, no backlight bleeding, no "glow," no dead pixels, no yellowish tinting. I recognize a 7 year-old TN is no match for the high quality of... -

Best 24" Monitor for New Desktop
My Dell E173FP's viewing angles don't bother me because I sit directly in front of the screen and it's only 17". Does the TN viewing angle problem become severe on a larger TN screen such as 24" even if you sit in front of the screen? I saw the "IPS Glow" videos on YouTube. Looks like IPS... -

Best 24" Monitor for New Desktop
I still have nagging concerns about the "bleeding edge" IPS and VA, as reported by HF contributors. My 7 year-old Dell E173FP TN/CCFL is a good performer, good quality build with rock-solid stand, excellent panel consistency when displaying black screen (no backlight bleeding, glows, etc), no... -

Best 24" Monitor for New Desktop
I saw a Correction (dated 08/17/11) on tftcentral.co.uk reporting the upcoming Dell P2412H will not be a VA panel as first reported (on 08/4/11) but will be "TN Film" like its P2411H predecessor. The question becomes why replace the P2411H with the P2412H if it's the same? Not interested in... -

Best 24" Monitor for New Desktop
A 24" display with 1920x1200 has smaller pixels than 24" with 1920x1080. Won't smaller pixels make the text harder to read on the 1920x1200? I wasn't aware 16:10 is the "professional format" and is better. Megalo, Snowdog, and others convinced me to keep the U2412M on my short list (my AG... -

Best 24" Monitor for New Desktop
Thanks for the good ideas, khwain, such as the info about 10e on the 2412 thread. I'll check it out. 1920x1080 vs. 1920x1200 -- would the two screens' physical dimensions be the same (shoving an extra 120 pixels in the same physical vertical space) or would the 1920x1200 display be physically...
