Suitable 22" and 24" lcd monitors for gaming??

well im attending to buy the Dell 2408 but A01 revision.
I think its a great monitor.
for all.
the 5ms and the 2 ms is a minor for me .
it may do problems when playing LAN FPS games.
the dell is SPVA which gives the pictures more colors (the TN is miming colors it support up to 256 color and the others its mimes with some software) the SPVA can produce all of the 16.7 million colors.
the SPVA has a larger viewing angles than the TN .
you can get up from your chair and you will still see the same picture ,
on TN you will see it gets brighter or darker.
the TN has a response time of 2 ms
the SPVA has a response of 5 ms.

the best test with monitors is just go , and test it out on the shop , ask the salesman to show you pictures , movies and games , and see for yourself.
I find the Dell 2408 very good .. thats why im waiting for the A01 rev.


Enjoy .

If you are interested in a 24" LCD monitor with low input lag and if you want true 16.7m colors then you might want to consider the HP LP2475W. This is a recently introduced LCD monitor, and it a H-IPS LCD panel which generally produces better color accuracy than S-PVA panels once it is calibrated.

H-IPS panels also have 178/178 viewing angles and colors shifts less dramatically than S-PVA panels as the viewing angle becomes more extreme. It has a response time of 6ms and the average input lag of 25ms which is better than most non-TN monitors.



I have the NEC LCD2690WUXi which has an average input lag of 32.5ms and I don't really notice any lag. Then again I am not a hardcore gamer; meaning I wouldn't waste my money for a XFire or SLI setup, and I don't expect to play games with high or ultra high graphics quality. I'm pretty happy to play Crysis at 1920 x 1200 with medium graphics quality with my setup.

Here's the review to the HP LP2475W (I might pick it up as a secondary monitor if I get a bonus in Jan '09):

Yes, that chart tested A00, however I have not seen any test which show input lag for the A01 revision yet.

Therefore, it is the most up to date comparison chart available to my knowledge.

I truly don't know.

the A01 rev is quite new .. it haven't got into a lot of countries yet.
In Israel is suppose to get into the market in a week or 2.

I must tell you that when I went to see this monitor (the A00 rev)
I was really damn impressed .. its really looks very good.
and I didn't noticed the input lag although there were a few more monitors nearby .
I just don't want to take the chance of buying something that is not good enough so I'm waiting for the A01 and then bang its in my place (la la la la =] ) which suppose to be good enough for me .. its just worth the waiting and the extra bucks (shekels in Israel)

thats my way of thinking.

dude..

go and see the monitor yourself.. then judge other peoples mind.. ok ?

I'm not spreading any false info. Dell said it reduced the input lag and I read about it somewhere..
sorry you just pissed me off right now with your reply..
it was really not nice to say I'm spreading false info..

Noam

"False" was probably the wrong word to use; especially since I was typing my response at 4am in the morning (my time).

"Unsubstantiated" should have been the word.
