Ok, i'm looking for a nice 22'' monitor for my new Sapphire HD4870 1GB. i've been looking around for a while, but no monitors have come up in any new builds for a while, so here i am. cheaper is better, but obviously significant quality increases are worth the money.

i've had a samsung (syncmaster 930B) that's done me well for years now, but i'm open to changing companies. i've tried to research this a bit, but it's difficult. some sites go into too much detail (xbit labs http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/monitors/) and others don't get enough detail.

monitor is used for gaming (fallout 3, red alert 3, bioshock...).

Black friday deals are great!

costco Samsung 23" Widescreen LCD Monitor $259.99 (2343BWX DVI 5ms 1000:1 300 cd/m² regular $329.99)
costco Samsung T220 22" $259.99
costco Samsung 2253LW 22" (DVI 2ms 1000:1 300cd/m² $229.99

i've heard good things about a dell 22'', but can't remember the numbers for it.

on average how much more expensive is a 24''? have 24'' LCD's begun getting high end gaming response times? TN matrix or better?

The Acer looks like it's got a shot, $320 w/ 2ms GTG response. What's the GTG for?

any Samsung recommendations?

that looks like a grea monitor, but a bit pricey again. i'm hoping to get something $300 or less, especially with black friday deals coming up.

TN matrices are ok for me, since i need cheap and fast.

how are the 3 monitors i found from costco?
