Are there any 22 inch monitors with PVA or IPS panels at all? Or should i just buy a 24 inch, because i know lots of monitors in that size have those panels. I want to buy two of them, in dual screen. Maybe two 24 inch monitors next to each other are to big? I use them mainly for 3d / CAD work / photoshop, so alot of desktop space is recommended.
Any users here find 24 inch to big too?
 
Im pretty sure all 22s are TN at the moment. Go with a 24 for better panel. I'd recommend the 92% dell color gamut thats on sale now. I've heard nothing but good things so far.
 
There are people with 3 x 30" screens lined up in a row on this forum and complain to not have enough space. So I guess it will be something you'll have to try yourself. Personally, I think they won't be too big but it will certainly give you quite a bit of real-estate to play with.

I believe the Dell monitor that thespeakerbox is referring to is the Dell UltraSharp 2407WFP-HC monitor.

And I am pretty sure all 22" monitors are TN panels.
 
are there any 22" screens coming out that aren't TN? I would get a 24" but thats a lot of money for 2" and 20" is to small...
 
There is one 22" IPS screen that I know of....but it's an Eizo and costs almost $900. Does that answer your question?:p The bottom line is that until the general buying public educates themselves about different panel types and starts demanding better...we will have nothing but cheap TN's to choose from at anything below 30":rolleyes:

didn't think of it that way. I wanted to get a 22" since pushing 1920x1080 is going to starting getting tough. I was planing on "downgrading" from my westy, moving that to a htpc and get a new screen a few other parts.

to bad there aren't any 22" panels that are as good as the 24" ones.

nope 22's are TN and 22's arent all that great, after research I skipped them all together and went for an LG246 24 inch lcd with a PMVA panel, best decision I ever made after all the debacles with the 22's. You will be much happier with a 24. Personally I see having two panels as extremely wasteful and unnecessary but to each his own. The money would be better spent on one larger panel than two smaller ones. Having a bunch of pages up at once on two different monitors still requires you to divide your time between them as well as your eyes.
Save up and buy one 24 inch panel and use the money for a second panel on a high end graphics card, that will be a more beneficial scenario to your cadwork than having two panels.
