I initially wanted a 22" S-IPS but i realize that either there are none, or no good ones are there. So now im wondering whether I should buy a 20" S-IPS or a 22" TN.

USE
  • Playing games (PS3/PC)
  • Watching movies (PS3/PC)
  • Using Office (PC)
  • Casual photo editing (PC)

CHOICES

If TN, then maybe : G2200W or 2208WFP
If S-IPS, I was considering maybe : Dell 2007WFP refurbished (but its SOLD OUT! so maybe not)



Any monitor suggestions?
 
I would take an LG L227WTG-PF over either of those monitors for PC use only, but if you are using PS3 as well, it's recommended to go with Samsung T220HD because it properly sizes the PS3 screen to 16:9 with black bars. The other monitors will likely stretch it to 16:10 making everything look tall and stretched/distorted.

The 2007WFP is great if you win the panel lottery and get the S-IPS version. It will size everything right, but you could also end up with the PVA version.
 
20wmgx2 (good luck getting one) I have one and i still get that... Holy shit this panel is nice, every time i turn it on.
 
I'll look into the monitors that were suggested, thanks! Also, I can't find 20wmgx2 in stock anywhere!

Side note: Is there a huge difference from S-IPS and S-PVA? I was thinking of just looking for a PVA panel instead. Hopefully 20" monitor.
 
I have a 2007WFP that is s-IPS im looking to sell.
it has a slight scratch from a cat but its hard as hell to see with the monitor turned on.
 
Okay, I'm still back and forth on this. How does the HP w2207h or even W2600H-PF sound? I heard the only issue is viewing angles!
