So, you would actually recommend the Samsung over the other 2 that I have listed? The one is 22" and has a 2000:1 contrast ratio without some weird color enhancement. Although...I have never heard of Sceptre before... |
Costco - Dell E228WFP 22" Wide DVI 5ms 800:1 300 cd/m² 1680x1050 WSXGA+
The Dell one I got has a better contrast ratio and HDCP support ( don't know if the samsung one has it ) but a worse response time ( not like it even matters as the numbers aren't significant ). The Dell costs 295, and the samsung one costs 320. The big thing that affected my decision was I could get this Dell monitor from costco which has a no questions asked 90 day return policy.
As some may already have been able to tell, I'm incredably OCD about certain computer issues...one of them being dead/stuck pixels. If the monitor had a single one I would immediately return it...but luckly it didn't so...

I am very satisfied!
