Finally have the space for triple 24" monitors and was wondering what my current options are. I am currently looking at the Dell U2412M or ASUS PA248Q (which apparently has quality issues). Intended usage will be primarily gaming/photo viewing/movies/browsing/productivity.

I sit around 19"-2'~ away in a pitch blackroom and play games/watch movies with lots of black scenes... will IPS glow be a problem? Looking for something around the following:

- $350~/ea

- 1920x1200

- good horizontal/vertical viewing angles

- crisp picture with good colors, no ghosting, good dark room usage (good black light/low IPS glow)

- smaller bezel


Any suggestions?
 
U2412m is a good candidate. I got 3 of them and they are fantastic. The IPS glow will be there no matter what you do. As far gaming goes, they are great. I play mainly fps and rts so they are great. I don't do much photography but I can tell that it's amazing when I import pics from my T3i after calibration. I don't notice any kind of ghosting whatsoever and they got every good viewing angle when I put them in portrait.
 
I'd get the 24" models Vega has. VG24QE I think they are. Might be better out by now though.
 
I'm currently looking at buying three HP Z24i screens. They're supposedly a lot better than the Dell U2412Ms I used before.
 
The Z24i is much better but the matte coating may suffer from cross-hatching (google Dell U2713HM cross-hatching).

The BenQ BL2411PT is better, the matte coating is not as light as the HP's but it is still lighter than the Dells and the BenQ has the best overdrive (least amount of color streaking/smearing and overshoot ghosting) of the three
