Need some quick advice

[runnin17]

Should I get two NEC P221W-BK's or get 2 NEC 20WMGX2's??? Main use would be for gaming.

Price difference is about $80, but I just want to know since I have never owned a non-TN panel.

Couldn't wait and went for the P221W-BK's. Total was $425 (including shipping and taxes for both monitors). Refurb's with a 3-year warranty including the backlight. Pretty much couldn't be beat.

Can't wait for these babies.

Those are darn expensive for them new:

I would expect to get a 25" to 27" at that price..

Looks like you did fine for the refirbs though. Although I am still confused why this monitor new is > 2 times the cost of most 22" monitors.

I got two of them. Not just one. They were $179 each before tax and shipping. So all in all, $212 each for a $500 monitor (actually the cheapest online is around $350 each).

They are PVA panels. Take a look at these reviews:
