Some of you have already seen my setup, but for those who haven't:
I purchased three of these screens during their first 8 months of production. I have had two die on me so far. I won't rehash how pathetic Gateway has treated it's customers regarding the mass failures of these screens, except to say they have abandoned them altogether. But I will say I will never purchase a Gateway product again... ever.
Since the repair options for these screens are so sparse with mixed results I've decided to cut my loses and look at replacements. Not an option I'm too fond of, but I've little choice. So far I'm leaning towards the Dell 3008WFP, but I'm open to feedback. My only stipulations are decent warranty, built-in scaler and Display Port input (for Eyefinity). I also like that the WFP has two DVI inputs, this opens up some options for me, but it is not a "must have" feature.
I'm just a blue collar worker, so obviously price is a consideration also, but I don't mind saving for how ever long it takes to get a reliable panel that will perform well with the features I want.
With that, what are your thoughts on the best 30" monitor (2560x1600) out there for gaming today?
