Video7 D24W33

Someone said they liked it a lot except input lag was somewhat noticeable.

This monitor is actually manufactured specifically for Ingram Micro (an IT distributor) for sale. I'm not sure who the OEM is. I know it's a TN panel with HDMI and VGA connector.

There are two reviews out there on motherboards.org and gamepyre.com, but funny enough it looks like the exact same review :)

If you can get it from a good shop with liberal returns policies you might want to try and let us know. I like the fact that the brightness is listed as (max) 250cdm/2, so you should be able to find a comfortable brightness level.

BTW, I found the link to a user review by Dave3D who is also a user here. He did seem to like it except he said it did have lag. It looks like an overdriven 2ms 24" TN panel with dynamic contrast and 250cdm/2 brightness. Might be good.

I just got this V7 today. I paid $329 - $30 coupon plus tax, So $299 plus tax from Officemax. Plus I got an ebates rebate for $20.

I'm sort of a newbie but you can ask me anything and I will try to give opinion.

I upgraded from a 15" Flat Panel Sony that I've had for years and this thing is huge compared to it. The adjustable stand and swivel works well. You can also rotate the monitor to potrait mode but I havent done that yet. It comes with software for this which is easy to throw out because its in the plastic on the outside of the box and looks like shipping documents. The speakers sound good for Monitor speakers. I havent used the hdmi port yet. I am currently just displaying my laptop with only vga out but when I get the cable (should come tomorrow) I plan on connecting my cable box to the hdmi port. My other complaints are that the volume controls are hidden within the menus and the screen could be a little brighter.

I haven't found any dead pixels. I used the pixel buddy program where you cycle through the colors.

I made the decision that for me I didnt want to spend >$600 for a non-TN panel. I know there were people that found the Soyo 24 MVA b&m at OM but that wasnt an option. Other than that, the cheapest non-TN afaik is the Dell with coupons which was going for around $543 plus tax (2408wfp). But if you visit the dell forums u see a lot of people are not happy with it.


I am not 100% whether its a keeper or a gobacker... Im thinking keeper though.
