I'm in search of a new monitor for my rig at home and could use some suggestions. I've done a bit of research, so I know the basics: differences between TN and IPS, response time, etc. However, there are definitely things I haven't encountered yet, and figured the [H] is the best place to turn.
Long story short, I need a 24" or larger screen, but the boss-lady says to keep it under $300. I 'm coming off of an old 24" 1920x1200 dinosaur that was used primarily for gaming (Battlefield 3, etc.). I have to pick it up either at Newegg/Amazon or something local (ala Frys/WorstBuy). Also, would like (DVI and HDMI) or 2 HDMI ports as I would also like to plug an Xbox into it as well. Here's a few models I was considering and would appreciate thoughts:
BenQ GW2750HM - Not a bad price, but would have preferred a better res, as I'm concerned the 1920x1080 on a 27" might look a bit blocky the 2-3 feet in front of me on the desk.
Samsung 24C750P - New and a bit unknown, but available locally. I think its MVA, but not sure how that compares to IPS.
Asus VS247H-P - Lots of folks seem to love them despite the cheap stand reported
Something else to consider?
