at the moment im using samsung 22" 2232gw+ but it's only up to 1680x1050... and im with gtx295... so i think at this resolution is kinda waste of my graphic card...
22"-24" i think should be fine... since im used to 22" already

I'd go for a Dell Ultrasharp 2408WFP.

Samsung, or ASUS 25.5 (ie the 26" ). I'm very happy with my Samsung 26".

$470 Samsung 2693HM (some complain of backlight bleed, but the bezel is reflective not backlight issues)

Read Prad.com's review of the 2408WFP before you discard it.

+1 Samsung has nice long lasting quality monitors.

+1 for Samsung, no dead pixels after years
Currently I have Samsung Syncmaster T260 (1920*1200)..excellent monitor and my GTX 295 felt in love with it :love: :D

hold up for the t240hd monitor I wouldnt go with the t240hd but the t240 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6824001275 it has a much better dynamic contrast ratio also cheaper...But it you plan on watching TV with the monitor then by all means go with the hd version but other then that go with the non hd version

I dont know why your worried about HDMI , its of lower quality then DVI and video cards almost always come with a DVI to HDMI converter to connect it to your TV. And you get no loss in quality since DVI suuports ALL resoutions and HDMI stops at a certain point.

thanks again for the suggestions.. last thing, :O
ive went to a Dell shop here and saw the monitor.. it looks like the quality of the color is much better ;O but the response time bothers me :O
6ms (GTG) and 2 MS are big differences?

Reply to ppv

there is a big diffrence see as if GTG is only 2ms that means your color response time is going to be a lot better. and most stores that sell multiple brands of monitors dont touch the monitors and leave them at default or lower settings. play with the settings when you get your samsung, I've done that with every monitor I've ever got. Trust me you will love it and it will last.
