Okay guys. I've wanted to move to 24" for a long time. Currently using a 22" Acer that is great. Girlfriend has me on a tight budget. Answer to 24" has been a firm no. Found geeks running 199.99 on Soyo refurb. She's okay with it. :)

What is your opinion? Seems to be two kinds of panels on this monitor, not sure of the details. This pc is for gaming 90% of the time. They offer an extended warranty, which I wouldn't purchase but it seems they are confident in it, right?

Any advice is greatly appreciated guys. Thanks in advance.
 
Refurbs are generally ok because they've gone through more checks than the original new product, but you open the door for a greater likelihood of dead or stuck pixels. The one good thing is that you are likely to get an MVA panel with that.

I think the 3 month warranty should be sufficient for the price, but keep in mind you will have to go directly to Soyo for warranty fulfillment during that period (90 day "direct" warranty). Either that, or wait for another OfficeMax special at $299.99

Or, get the girlfriend to make you some mo' money! J/K

For $200, as long as the pixels ain't dead, it's a winner.

Worth considering for a 2nd, actually....
