Those korean ips monitors are really good but............... you will be taking a big risk. If something goes wrong you have to pay for shipping back to the seller and it costs a lot of money. You can't go wrong with buying the dell 23". It is the best monitor for the price that i have ever seen.

Some of the sellers will pay for shipping back though too..

There's a risk, but i would say about 90-95% are satisfied with their Korean monitor.

Ah, found them on the Red Cap store on ebay. 27" may be too big for my tastes for gaming though(since I'm up close with keyboard and mouse instead of sitting farther with a console).

How is the picture quality of these IPS screens compared to the Dell's I listed? For about the same price as the U24 I can get either an Achieva Shimian or PC Bank 3. And what's the lite version? Ugh, so many choices now. Since the Dell's are E-IPS screens are these Korean monitors regular IPS(therefore having better picture quality?)

That sounded like a warning to me... Lol. Thanks for the heads up

personally for just gaming would you pick one of those monitors over the Dell's? Will the S-IPS have a better image quality than the E-IPS?
