The search is on for LED

post #1 of 10
Thread Starter 
Looking for something in the field of 23", I'll give a budget cap of $200 (though I could be flexible). Must be VESA mountable 75mm x 75mm or 100mm x 100mm. Must have at least one DVI and one HDMI input. Will be used for gaming and movies plus normal browsing and whatnot. Plan is to get three of these for nvidia surround. LED backlighting, obviously. Brands I like are LG and samsung. 3D optional but it is not important to me, I probably won't use it.

Thanks in advance thumb.gif

I have a huge bone to pick with ASUS and I'll pay a bit extra to not have one sitting on my desk. I currently have a VH238H which I'm replacing.

Keep em coming!

Terrible support. Took me almost a month to RMA a motherboard for them. Loved the Crosshair V but I don't want them having my money any more, even if it was a fluke.

the LG M2380D
but I'm getting conflicting research whether it has a DVI port or not

http://www.techpowerup.com/163801/LG-Intros-Flatron-M2380D-Monitor.html

the japanese version says it does
the UK version says it does not
the US version says it does not but a newegg reviewer said otherwise?

Might have a winner here. I wish it had a cheaper version without the TV tuner, but it has a solid number of inputs and the bezel looks a decent thickness.

8ms is a bit too much for gaming I think, but I'll leave it in the running depending on budget

EDIT:

Found this one LG E2342V-BN 23". Much cheaper. Anybody with this want to offer some input?

personally I don't mind the tv tuner option but your right about the added expense that is unwanted
it comes with a remote btw
now only if it came with dvi-d (confirmed?) instant buy x2, maybe x3
LG has a speaker add-on for that model specifically
