Hi all,
After trying the BenQ fp24w, Dell 24 , Westinghouse, etc monitor I came accross this monitor at Best Buy.
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage...h2400&lp=1&type=product&cp=1&id=1188560797577
This is the Official Monitor Specs:
24 inch TN
1920x1200 (60hz)
0.27 Pixel Pitch
160/160 Viewing Angles
Ultra Color Gamut 92%
Ultra Response Time 3ms
Ultra Bright 400nit
4 port USB 2.0 Hub
HDMI (hdcp) @480i,480p,720p,1080i and 1080p
DVI (hdcp) @480i,480p,720p,1080i and 1080p
VGA
Component @480i,480p,720p,1080i and 1080p
S-video
Composite
16.7 Million Colors
And since the setup I want is VGA=Xbox 360, DVI = PC and HDMI = PS3 and I like many read too much into the TN , MVA, viewing angles, etc that other monitors were simply having problems with different issues. (overscan, 1:1 not displaying correctly with Ps3, wtc,etc) and I tried them with no avail.
Well I decided to give this TN panel a try, it is virtually the TN version of the FD2485W and to me the deciding factor will be WILL IT DISPLAY the Xbox, Ps3 correctly? and well so far I connected my ps3 (hdmi) and boom perfect 1:1, no overscan , the xbox displays full 1080p over VGA with no problem.
Tomorrow I'll test a Blue-ray movie and see how video playback is. And i'll post some pics of all three I bought this for $463 with the 12% coupon and I figure this monitor is for my use sure is 160 viewing angle but since when will i be playing/watching movies sideways? We have our HDTV for when we want to watch something as a family, so if you want a gaming lcd why worry soo much about viewing angles?
Anyways just wanted to let those few who are looking for a gaming monitor.
