Hi,

I'm sure theres probably heaps of posts like this but I though I would ask the question anyway. I am looking for a new monitor....

I have about £1000.00 to spend and im looking at 27-30inch of gaming goodness. The list I have it narrowed to are:

Hazro HZ27WB
Hazro HZ30Wie
Hazro HZ27WC
HP ZR30
Dell U2711
Dell U3011

They all have different pros and cons but to be honest all i want it for is gaming and some basica workspace.

Some questions I have are:

Does the 1440 vs 1600 res differance make that much difference?
Gloss no gloss?
Have you used these monitors....what do you think?
are the extra such as hubs card readers actual that benificial?
the cost of hazro say vs the dell or HP is it worth the extra...?

thanks for any comments

 
I'd go with the Dell U2711, but I view monitors over 24" as not being too good for desktop use, you need to sit too far back from larger monitors to see the screen without moving your eyes or head all over the place. I just don't view 30" monitors as good for desktops. Plus the Dell UltraSharp series has been very well reviewed.
