Greetings,
I originally had an LG 22" which worked ok for years, then decided to recently upgrade to an Asus VS248H-P. It has a 5 star rating on newegg and its non-led equivelent the VW246H has a 1340 reviewes 5 star review. It claimed 50million to 1 dynamic contrast ratio so I thought, great, this must be very good.
Problem is I have my Samsung UN60C6300 (60 inch LED) in the same room mirrored. With great sadness when I looked over and saw the image / video quality on the Sammy compared to the Asus monitor I was greatly dissapointed. The Sammy is twice as clear, crisp, detailed, colorful, sharp, twice! What I had completely failed to remember was the difference between TN, PVA, IPS screen types, the Asus being the crappy TN and the Samsung TV being PVA in this case.
So my goal now is to find a monitor that equals my TV which is only a series 6 not even the higher end series 7 or 8. No TN will accomplish this so I'm looking at IPS models. I would hate to plunk down 500 on an IPS and still not meet my visual objective. I really only play Crysis and Crysis2, BF series, games with very high levels of detail, and basic other tasks.
My main question is, has anyone here personally compared an IPS panel to either a Samsung seies 6,7,8 or Sharp Aquos etc high end TV and have the image quality comparible? I don't care about color matching or color accuracy all I care about is the level of detail in terms of clarity, crispness, sharpness etc. Apparently contrast ratio doesnt mean jack if the asus I have is really dynamic 50mill to one, ASCR is pointless. I don't believe color accuracy affects sharpness, clarity and detail levels or does it? What actually is the technical differing factors why the Samsung PVA is litterally twice as sharp, clear and detailed, is it really the ability to display the additional colors or is it the real contrast ratio of being able to display a wider range / gamut of those colors from dark to bright?
Here are the IPS models I was looking at. If anyone has visually verified any of these compared/mirrored next to one of the TV's mentioned before that would be great to know if any compare or are close.
HP ZR2440W
HP ZR24W
Asus PA246Q
Dell U2412M
Dell U2410
If there is any higher levels of input lag or ghosting on an IPS as compared to a TN I'll take that for the better image.
Thanks in advance
