stuck pixels

[Bman123]

Man O Man has this been a week or what.
I bought a westinghouse 1680x1050 monitor and it lasted 14 days then it went out.I go to best buy today and swap it out and get a lg 1440x900 monitor.Come home hook it up and what do you know about 20 stuck pixels in it at least.I honestly am very tired of monitor problems.Am I doing something wrong?

LG is supposed to be a good brand right?There is seriously between 20-30 stuck pixels on this monitor.I am glad that I got it local and not from the egg,at least I can take it back.

Should I get a more expensive monitor? I just dont understand how this monitor can have so many stuck pixels.

I wanted to stay at 1680x1050 or below so I still get good framerates in my games.Should I go for a dell or a samsung monitor next? Maybe the monitor from a diff MFG will have higher QC and I wont have to take the drive again.

Sorry for the rant but what should I do about getting a new monitor?What brand should I look at now

Sounds like bad luck. I'm in the same situation, I've gone through 4 monitors in the last 3 months due to various problems. Dell's are nice, especially their Ultra Sharp line because they have a 0 dead pixel premium panel guarantee.

For what's it's worth, I've owned several Acer and Samsung LCD's, and never had a dead/stuck pixel on any of them. The 28 inch LCD's from Viewsonic, Hanns-G, and Hannspree have given me nightmares with all the problems I've had with them.

With that many bad pixels I would suspect that it had some kind of trauma.
