Need 3 really nice monitors for an Eyefinity Setup.

Things I am looking for:

Resolution: 1920x1080

Aspect Ratio: 16:9

Contrast Ratio: Very High (Good Color, Good Black and Whites)

Bezel: ASAP! As Slim As Possible

Brand: Any

LED Backlight: Yes

Widescreen: Yes

Response Time: 2ms-6ms (8ms Highest That I Will Go)

Refresh Rate: 60Hz (120Hz if its a decent cheap monitor, but 60Hz normally)

Built In Speakers: Yes but if the monitor don't come with it then nvm. (Only care about it for my Xbox but its not a high priority.)

Let me know what you guys can find for some good Eyefinity Monitors.

*NOTE* If you don't know what you are talking about don't post because I hate when people post products and they don't have any knowledge about them or experience.

"If anyone owns a eyefinity setup also let me know what monitors you are using."

only one thing you are missing PRICE. whats the max price you would be willing to spend total on 3 monitors? cause if your price is only $600 your not going to get everything you want on that list. personally i would get 3 Dell U2410's if i were to do eyefinity but i dont think you wanna drop 1.5k+ just for 3 monitors

EDIT: after you got your price set we can try to help you more

How is that even relevant to what I am asking?

I was looking at the ASUS VE248H 24"

I don't particularly like BenQ, but I think this monitor is worth a look:

It's a danish site, but you should be able to read the specs. The price is ~267$.

I have no idea how it'll look in an Eyefinity setup, but I've seen the picture first handedly, and it looks pretty good compared to the price. You get what you pay for. Not sure if you can find it cheaper in the US, since Newegg apparently doesn't have it at all. I believe there's also a slightly cheaper 5ms model, if you really don't want to go above 700$.
Well I am looking to buy off Newegg's Website.
3x Dell U2311H's? if you catch them on sale you can nab 3 for around $700, and they have native displayport so you dont have to mess with adapters, and they look great

That is solid advice. Although they are not produced anymore and replaced by U2312HM displays. HM ones have LED backlight, slightly rounded corners and one preset color profile is lacking from the menus compared to the U2311H. They also take about 50% less power bcos of the backlight (U2311H is with cathode lamps, U2312HM with LED's).

I personally like the colors of U2311H slightly more, but U2312HM is also quite solid monitor. Both are e-IPS is work fine in portrait as well if thats what you desire.
Hi Just looked on ebay and can get the U2311H fro under £200 so that is great , if i was to go up to around £400 what would you recommend , was looking at the review on the BenQ which is just released in the u.k any thought on that.
Thanks

so Blindsay , you said you stepped down from the Eyefinity ? to the 1600 why was that ? i am looking at getting a Mx18 as need the laptop for work and maxing it out with Dual 2GB GDDR5 AMD® Radeon™ HD 6990M CrossFireX™ Intel® Core™ i7 2960XM Overclocked Turbo Boost (8MB Cache) then get 4x 8GB and change them out or wait for the price and size of the 1866 to come down
Going to get 4096MB 1333MHz Dual Channel DDR3 SDRAM [2x2048]
And what would you recommend if i was to go down the Eyefinity road , the review so far on the Dell 30" Ultrasharp look very good
Know i am posted to older thresd , just wat to see what people bought then and what they woud recommend now , seen a fwe funny commetns already bu hey ho
What do you do with your old Rigs do you sell on complete or break down and rebuild
if you are selling is there a part of her i have missed ?
To all those on here who are helping me along my way thanks
