Grrr halp meh
« on: January 25, 2009, 07:31:07 AM »
Want to find a 24" 1920x1200 screen. Or, a 22" 1920x1080 screen.
Viewing angles higher than 160 vertical/horizontal. Also, I'd like it to be black and going to last a long time. I'd be getting 2.
Kinda high brightness, too, I guess.

Any ideas?

LOL no way treemty. Oh god, that thing sucks.

Phenom I'd prefer them to be under $300 each, but I'm not getting the 2nd one till after the build so I guess slightly over is okay too.

I LOVE my gateway fhd2400. I got it for $250 at tiger direct. It was refurbished but the only reason that I could tell was because of the small sticker on the back that says refurbished. I would recomend that monitor to anyone. It has a 92% color gamat and 3ms response time, awesome 1920 x 1200 resolution, hardly no light bleeds through on the sides. Awesome stand and tons of inputs. It is the bomb diggity.  :tup:

I like it, but the only downer is the viewing angles and the color. I'm still looking. I think I might prefer a 1920x1080 22" more, too.

The color is really good and so is the viewing angle. I think it is the best I have ever had. It looks awesome from every where and it displays the colors beautifuly.

Contrast Ratio
1000:1

The average for contrast ratios is 1500-2500, my TV is 10,000:1 and my monitors are both 3000:1

while this may be true, contrast ratios are not measured the same for every product. What is 1,000 to 1 contrast ratio for one monitor may be a 10,000 to 1 contrast ratio for another monitor.

Yeah theirs dynamic contrast and there is static contrast

My monitor is overhyped with its colour (It actually has good colour though) and has 8000:1 but thats dynamic, with static its 1000:1

1000:1 is still good though

yea personally  I think that people get a little to hyped up on specs sometimes. If it does what you want it to do and looks like you want it to then buy it! Lol
