I know these posts get old, but I really can't make up my mind so I need at least some help. I recently moved from FL to CA. I shipped my Mitsubishi DP930-SB via DHL. I showed the girl who picked up my stuff how I had it packed and she said it'd be fine, not to worry, she guaranteed it'd get to my door okay. Well, it shipped quicker than I thought so rather than have failed deliveries (I had signature verification) I called DHL and told them when I'd be there. They said it wasn't a problem, they'd hold my stuff.
When I get to CA and get my stuff, my monitor is wrecked. I knew something was wrong when I saw the box had been trashed. I said to the guy "damn, it's all beat to hell" to which he replied "well, that's what happens when we have to hold your stuff. It gets moved around and stuff breaks". Thanks for admitting it was your fault, sir. I filed a complaint about the delivery guy's lack of professionalism (there's a whole lot more he said and did, but this is already gonna be a long post and I doubt anyone really cares - but if you do, lemme know and i'll tell the rest) and am in the process of filing an insurance claim. Anyways, The whole back plastic part is split in half and the actual screen just looks not good. Don't know how to describe it... it's not cracked, just sorta discolored like something inside my have broke. I thought about plugging it in to see if there was any chance it still worked, but I hear lots of stuff moving around inside so I think i'm gonna just leave it be.
Now, I need a new monitor. I definitely want to spend less than $400. Around $300-350 would be even better but I'll pay a little extra if I have to. The options I've got so far are:
1) Hyundai L90d+ - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16824179014
2) Viewsonic VX924 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16824116355
(as if I need to tell you what those are)
3) Another DP930SB-bk (can't find a good leak to specs so hopefully someones familiar with it)
4) Any other suggestions?
I will mainly be using the monitor for gaming and school... so a pretty good all-around monitor that's great for gaming would be perfect. Please help me! Thanks!
