Gonna buy a monitor for christmas, and just I was looking into the Asus VH226H (Newegg.ca - ASUS VH226H Black 21.5" 2ms(GTG) HDMI Widescreen 16:9 Full HD 1080P LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 1000:1 (ASCR 12000 : 1) Built in Speakers - LCD Monitors) 21.5", for a decent price. Looking to stay under $200 before taxes + shipping.
But I stumbled onto this Samsung 23" (NCIX.com - Buy Samsung 2343BWX 23IN Widescreen LCD Monitor 2048X1152 50000:1DC 5ms VGA DVI - LS23MYZKFVA/ZC In Canada.) for the same price, and FREE shipping. It's also got a higher resolution.
I've got a XFX 1gb 4850 currently, so I should be fine with either resolution(minus crysis enthusiast). Just looking for a monitor that looks the best, size is not really an issue with me, as my 17" has served me pretty darn well
Anyone use that res? 2048X1152, and would it look better or worse then a 21.5" monitor @ 1920x1080? I don't watch movies on it, so the HD 1080p is not a big deal.
There's two open boxes left for the Samsung so I'll get another $10 off (gonna buy the pixel guarantee if I run an open box) so I'd order it tonight.
