I'm lookin for something 22-30" I'm guessing nothing quality for under $300 would I find 30in. So prolly 22"
*So I'm looking for a monitor that great for gaming
*I hope there are good non glossy ones.
Not something I inted to replace anytime soon, I want something solid.
Any companies have a zero dead pixel policy or anything good? What would you guys reccomend?
 
Black Friday will show 2 deals worth mention: a $167 22" from westinghouse and the $249 soyo 24" from officemax: this one is without question the best monitor under $ 300. Regular Sales from officemax sell it for $299+taxes, but a coupon from ebay can make it $292. No HDCP, but it is a VA panel without input lag- NOT a TN panel:cool:. You can and probably should pay for longer warranty time. Go for it!
 
Which one the Soyo? Really I dunno I wouldn't buy one of their motherboards so I dont think I'd buy one of their monitors call me skeptical. I've heard good things about the Westy but I'm not in the US at the moment unless I can order online then I could just ship it to my place down there. What other LCDs have good panels and such in this price range? Is that Westy the same one target has?
 
If you want a good panel (not TN) that is not a soyo then you will have to go for a 22". I have yet to see any other 24" for $250 new.
 
Okay I dont keep up with LCDs since I've had this NEC for years, TN? will the Soyo be available online for that price anyone know? Also which 22"s have TN
 
all 22" LCD panels are TN... which is not a bad thing for gaming, only professional graphics work

I bought a Samsung 226BW at newegg for $269 (after $40 MIR) and I couldn't be happier with it as far as gaming is concerned.

Click to expand...

In that case, I'd personally go with the Westinghouse for $170.
 
yeah if I drive 200 miles wait in line and hope I get one lol, anyone know if I can order online for $170?
