What's the current situation for affordable IPS monitors? I used to own a Dell U2311h and i really liked that screen. I see now there are several companies that are offering IPS screens at low cost, and i'm not sure which to chose for my next purchase.
Beyond the quality of the panel, i have only a few caveats:
1) It has to be matte. I hate reflective screens.
2) It has to have decent response times, at least equal to the U2311h or lower.
3) Has an easy way to switch between widescreen and fullscreen mode. I play a crap load of old games, so this feature is important for me.
4) Is at all reliable. I live in Italy, where our shipping system isn't exactly among the finest. The idea of having to play lottery and having to send defective screens back is never a good prospect but in my case its even worst.
