New Monitor for my gaming PC
« on: January 11, 2011, 02:38:39 pm »
Please check the specifications of the monitors if you have time and then decide which one you'd pick. I'd be happy if you could help me which one I should pick.

BENQ

LG

ASUS

Also, I'd like to sell my current monitor, which is Samsung 24", I'm happy to have the offer via pm and I'd like to sell it to ones who lives in UK :).

Thanks

P.S: Your comments are appreciated.

From what I could find on the internet, I'd go with the Asus.

The 100000:1 Contrast Ratio, 400 cd/m? Brightness on Asus and

the 10000000:1 Contrast Ratio, 300cd/m? Brightness on Benq, (LG is lower than both)

makes really much difference or not?

Aren't those values kinda academic/artificial, as they are taken by some arbitrary contrast switch. I wouldn't pay too much mind on those figures.

Also, just throwing this one out there: why not keep your current monitor, retard?

My guess is he wants a 3D monitor and he only wants 1 monitor for some reason :protoss :protoss

Asus ofc.
Personally I prefer Philips monitors but there are no 3d that I could find. LG is always a last option, I hate their screens since colours aren't great. I have never used BENQ but I saw couple of them in shops. Design is hilarious and plastic they use looks rather cheap...

I live in campus right now, the desk is so small and I won't have enough space for studying. If I was at home I'd keep it, but can't. Also I've a laptop as well.

Yes, but why are you selling this one?

Smor -- LG and Samsung make most of the panels that are used by other brands, afaik. There aren't THAT many panel manufacturers!

I play on a Samsung 3D monitor, but I must say. It's not as great yet. I'd wait a year or so for most of the bugs to go away. And for games  to really support 3D gaming.

I had a great offer on the screen, so it was as cheap as buying a normal monitor. But I wouldn't pay the full price on one, it's just not good enough yet.

I like LG monitors, I've had one since forever and never had any complaints :)

Friend once ordered a benq monitor online, and when he found out it had some dead pixels, he had to wait 3 weeks for a replacement :(

So I bought Asus, and its pretty amazing. I just need to figure out how to enable 3D right now. Also, still selling my old Monitor.
