4-Way (monitor) Brawl!

Thread Starter 
I have found 4 monitors, all offer different features, all have different recommendations, what I am wondering is, what one is best?!

Now also, if you have a monitor within the sub-200 category, put its name out there!

Now it's time to ring the bell!

The first three are all IPS panels, which give you more accurate colors and better viewing angles. Between them, there really isn't a whole lot of difference.

The AOC is the largest screen 23" with the smallest response time of 5ms other than the non IPS samsung at 2ms.

I would personally get the AOC because I hate glossy back bezels, and it has the largest screen.

Unfortunately none have display port

I have also had my eye on the Asus VS229.

Also the Asus VS247 is on sale for $159.99 with promo code EMCNCNG25

I'm personally holding out for the IPS screen tho.

How about $30 over your $200 budget?
http://www.ebay.com/ctg/Dell-UltraSharp-U2312HM-23-Widescreen-LED-Monitor-Black-/111219211?_refkw=dell+u2312&_pcatid=47&_pcategid=162497&_dmpt=Computer_Monitors

Best price I can find on it right there on ebay. $229.99 free shipping. You won't beat that monitor for the price. smile.gif

I will second the AOC but if you can afford it I would definitely go for the Dell. The AOC in nice but personally don't like the inputs being in the base, you cant vesa mount it or rotate it if wanted. Other than that it's nice.

What size screen do you have now? After using a 27"(16:9) then my 24"(16:10), I cant imagine using anything smaller than a 24"

I have an AOC e23443FK and it's an awesome monitor. The ports are in the base like you said but you can still wall mount it with a vesa mount. The base completley folds over onto the back of the monitor and it barely stands off the wall. If you don't go with the Dell I would definitely go with the AOC. It hasn't been around for too long as far as I know maybe that's why too many people don't know about the brand. But it is a good quality monitor and at a fair price. And I'm speaking from first hand experience. If you do decide to get the AOC you will not regret it. thumb.gif
