So I just purchased a 27" Shimian lite as per this forums recommendation as my main monitor - and I LOVE it. It's a fantastic flawless IPS display that has made photo editing a dream, and PC gaming looks great too (aside from the lag at high settings with my 5770!)
However, my current 2nd monitor is a 22" 1620x1050 display with VGA and DVI.
PS3 can connect to either of these connections by the use of adapters, however, even if the PS3 thinks it can do 1080p, it really is limited to 720p - not cool.
So, I want a new second screen. Here's the breakdown
Uses:
PS3 + office/internet (photo editing is done on my 27" IPS display)
Size:
24" because I think another 27" would be too big to comfortably look at
Connections:
I want DVI and HDMI at the very least
Speakers:
I dont care
Response time:
I suppose it whould begood for games?
120hz:
I dont need that for PS3 I think
Resolution:
1080 or 1200 work for me!
Gloss vs non-gloss:
I like em both. I think my Shimian is glossy.
Price range:
$250 MAX (less is better! Just spent $250 on Shimain T_T)
Preferred sites:
www.newegg.ca
www.memoryexpress.com
Additional:
I really want the picture quality to be superb which is why I am asking here and not just buying the first $170 24" TN I see
I think I covered my bases. Let me know if I missed anything please
Thanks!
