I have this same monitor but im about to exchange it for the Gateway 22" monitor using my replacement plan at CompUSA. I like the fact that the Gateway has Component, Composite, and S-Video Inputs so I can watch TV and not have to turn my PC on to do so.

hmm yeah that looks good and the specs are good but why are there lots of complaints about that monitor? dead pixels, color correction, ghosting and stuff. To me the price is great in terms of price/specs but hearing alot of negative stuff makes me kinda have to go for another monitor. Any other suggested 24"?

well i just want to watch high quality blu ray movies and also i am going to get 9 series soon so i would probably be able to game at 1920 x 1200. Also can anyone list several options? I really need to know so if 1 is too expensive i can get another and etc.

Dude i had a 1920x1200 monitor for a little while and it sucked, i tried playing 360 on 1080p (1920x1080 i believe) and it stretched the image and it sucked. You'll be watching blu ray movies in letterbox mode if your monitor supports it. AND you can't return your monitor to newegg if it's defective. Trust us when we say it's not worth it.

^ o yes you can, They just have a rule that says a minimum of 6 dead pixels more... It isn't hard to make more dead pixels......

Not this if you game. to game without lag, on a large screen, make sure its atelast below 8. hopefully 2 but 4-5 you shouldent notice any difference
