Just got my LCD2190Uxi BK, another one on the way tomorrow and the monitors seem a lot heavier (higher quality) then LCD monitors that have TN panels. I recently ordered a Multisync 20WMGX2 and the color difference is like night and day.

Will more pictures as I setup the monitor.

1x 20WMGX2

I just got my 20wmgx2, and it's the best LCD I have seen bar none. It took a while to get rid of most of the grey scale banding though, they have done something wierd with this panel. I don't know if it's the overdrive, the firmware, the design, or if I just got a defective one. But if you look at this image...

...from this page...

...and watch it as you adjust contrast and color settings, you can see verticle "banding" moving horizontally across the image. What's wierd is it's a striped pattern of the three primary colors tinting the grey, growing wider or narrow depending on the monitor adjustment. I finally got it to look somewhat reasonable with these settings...

nVidia Desktop settings at default

Brightness=25%
Contrast=50%
Sharpness+50%
Advanced DV mode=Off
DV Mode=Standard
Color mode=Native (or all at 100%)
DVI mode=PC

Now this is on a 8800GT by way of DVI using the color profile provided with the driver from NEC. All though the color profile is of course not active on the desktop, so I have not check ICM active applications for the issue. But at these settings it appears almost gone.

Other than that, I got one or two dead pixels, about half an inch from the bottom and 1 inch from the left bezel. Only noticable on light colors. Absolutely the best backlight bleed (or lack there of) I have ever seen, essentially none that I can detect even with the monitor as the only light source. No other defects I can detect.

The clarity, contrast, black levels, and response of the monitor are just superb. The only other complaint I would have is the it's so clear that any tiny spec of dust is visible on the glossy coating. I just keep a can of air near by and give it a blast ever once in a while.

Finally a more than worthy replacment for my Samsung 1100DF 21" CRT.

What a coincidence, today I received my 2490WUXi. I have yet to fiddle with the settings too much (and I need to go to bed) but it is incredible. Perfectly even illumination, great color, no dithering, and Team Fortress 2 looks amazing on it with no input lag or ghosting. It is easily one of the best displays I have gotten my hands on (and it better be for the price).

I just rearranged my desk and now it sits right next to my 24" aluminum iMac. Two great displays next to each other, I really couldn't be happier. Now if only my two 8800GT cards would get here, I really want to run this thing in SLI.
