questions about lcd pricing

[xc_runner713]

will the price of lcd's change at all within the next few months?

also i would like to discuss resolutions and other various things that relate to lcd's

the ones ive been looking at are 1680x1050 is this recommended because ive looked and i dont see it paying off buying a screen that has a few more inches and paying 2x as much im looking at the ones at newegg for ~200$

which manufacturer to buy im leaning more toward the scepter but which do you think is of higher image quality/reliability i intend to use this monitor for at least 3 years

ive also been looking at the fs/ft forum considering getting a deal on a used one

I don't know of any huge release coming soon that will lower prices across the board, but I do know that in a few months I'm sure all of the monitor prices you see now will go down a bit just due to the normal change in technology & pricing.

Since you're going for a less-expensive monitor around the $200 range, take a look around here for what people have said. If you're not willing to pay $600+ for a good 24" then I know that there are some great 20" and 22" LCDs people have had great things to say about on the boards here.

Panel prices are actually on the rise shortly here. At this point it will mostly effect 17 and 19 inch sizes but it may cause changes in some of the larger panels too.
