Im looking at buying a new monitor next week and need some advise. I mostly game on my machine. I havnt decided for certain wether i want a 24 or 22 inch display. I did look at best buy for some monitors and did like a few panels they had for 22 inch panels i liked the samsung 226CW and the LG L226WTQ-BF. For 24 inch panels i liked the gateway FHD2400 and acer X241WSD.

Of all of these which would come reccomended (If any)? Any particular panels out there that are known to be good that would be reccomended over these?

When it comes to shopping for monitors im a bit lost so picking one myself online could be a disaster at least in best buy i can talk someone into hooking the display up to a computer to play with and see for myself. So i could really use some suggestions.
 
If I were in the market for a 24" monitor, I'd wait about two or three weeks until information about the Dell 2408WFP becomes available (or perhaps the monitor goes up for sale) because it has the potential of having a high-quality IPS panel for an affordable price.

As far as 24" LCDs go, I think the BenQ FP241W seems to be the most popular but you have to buy it online.
 
You missed the cutoff on the latest 24" Soyo Sapphire S deal at OfficeMax by one day.

I've got one, and I'm increasing convinced you can't do better for $300. Sales seem to come around monthly -- I'd recommend picking it up locally rather than online, though, as some have had issues with lots of dead pixels. Suppose I got very lucky, as the one I picked up (and last one they had at the North Charleston OfficeMax) was free of stuck or dead pixels. So far so good.

Didn't you have a thread just like this a few days ago? Maybe in a different subforum or something. I remember because you misspelled "advice" in that title, too...
