Hey guys, my current monior ( asus 23" ) has been a great monitor while it lasted, but not even 6 months old and it has a pixel thats stuck on white. letting the flashing programs run for days, and trying to rub and tap it on, its still stuck, so looking to replace my monitor.
I'm either considering a korean 27" 1440p monitor from microcenter for $400
or a dell 24" ISP display at 1200p around the $400 range as well. ( also considering an apple 24" 1200p screen )
I'm moving soon, and I will not have cable at my new place, and I will be using my computer monitor as a tv for watching downloaded movies, streaming, etc. And will be getting rid of my old 720p Tv.
So the 27" will be large enough to watch movies on while not being too small to see across the room, but the build quality and reliability scare me a bit
the dell would come with support, better looking overall apperance ( which is a big thing for me ) and potentially better build quality. ( and a higher grade screen )
As far as gaming, I run a highly overclocked GTX 580, but even that struggles to produce a solid 60fps a little with bf3 on ultra everything on some of the larger 64 player maps. Obviously i'll have to lower the settings for 1200, and even more so for 1440.
tell me what you guys think
