hye everyone..

currently im playing my games on sdtv. just not fully satisfied. i thought of getting a new lcd monitor in which i can use for my pc as well as ps3.

i came across lots of review but still couldn't decide on 1.

my budget is about 1k to 1.5k
i am not sure whether to choose 22" or 24"
i don't know much about 1080p 1080i or 780p. will it show much different if i use the lower one?
is it important to have hdmi port or is it ok just to have dvi?

dell offers good lcd monitors with hdmi port
samsung got better looks as well as better performance specs
while lg benq and viewsonic seems to offer some competitive prices

thanx for your replies! :tabik:

i'm using Dell SP2207WFP, its 22" come with HDMI port, 2msecs response time, can accept 1080p signal (downscale to suit 1200x1050).. kinda satisfied with this monitor at the moment. If u want truly 1080p, go for 24" but u wont get 2 ms response time...

The 24" if its high-end model, its a lil bit expensive (better opt for an LCD TV).

Have a look here...

I agree with myxery, I'm using the same monitor and am very satisfied with it. I bought it at the Dell online shop on the 2007 year end PC Fair promotion for RM999. I think now it's 12xx. Max res is 1680x1050 and yes supports 1080p downscaling :lol:

PS: It has a webcam and mic that's compatible with PS3 too!
