Which Korean Monitor?

post #1 of 6

Thread Starter 
After hearing and reading about all these Korean monitors, I'm considering trying my luck and getting one. But I can't seem to find any sort of comparison between all the different ones available.

I was initially going to try out the FSM270-YG after I read the review, but It seems to be ~$60 more than the other versions (e.g., Catleap/Achieva).

Anyone know where I can find some comparisons, and if the FSM is worth the extra $60?

It pretty much doesn't matter.

They all are using the same panels and the real difference comes down to the casing, and if the model has tempered glass over it or not.

basically it doesnt matter if you are trying to spend as little as possible, but the crossover has a nice aluminum build for like 50 more if you dont like the prospect of a shoddy casing.

So basically, they are all nearly identical and the bezel is the main difference between them?

Pretty much, If you want one with a warranty though, micro center sells them

If you have to order one, I'd go Crossover, they have the highest quality stand

All the new ones have a warranty, you just have to pay for shipping back to Korea if you need to use it.
