I have a $300 budget and I'm looking for the following:
26 inches if possible
1920x1200
Decent brand
fewest dead pixels possible
And any other specs that may affect it's viewability on games. (Response time, contrast ratio, etc.)
If monitors exist with these specs, can people please throw out their models so I can take a look?
I was looking at a KDS at mwave ( http://www.mwave.com/mwave/SkuSearch_v2.asp?SCriteria=AA72964 ) which looks pretty good from what I understand of the specs. I have used KDS CRT monitors before, but never an LCD. Does anybody know if their LCDs are of decent quality?
Is $300 to low to be trying to find quality 26 inch? Am I going to have to settle for a 24 inch if I don't want some cheap-ass brand?
Also recommendations on places to order from in case it has dead pixels? I've heard to stay away from Newegg. I think if it had more than 3 or 4 I would want to send it back, so Neweggs 8 or whatever is way off of my allowed dead.
Thanks for any help or deal directions.
