I'm looking to pick up another string of monitors to match with the eyefinity cards (when I managed to get one

). A dude locally has a decent price on 2 2408s and 1 2407 but I recall hearing some negatives about the 2408's but some reviews I'm seeing say they are great which leads me to think it is a later model?

I thought they changed the pannels or something in the 08 line and the 07 down were better screens.

Can anyone shed some light on this for me?

Certainly. The 2408 uses a newer revision of the 2407's panel (they're both S-PVAs), and the 2408 adds an S-Video, HDMI, and Component video inputs. They're both very good monitors, succeeded by the U2410 (H-IPS w/2nd DVI and DisplayPort), and good values.

i have the 2407wfp-hc. great monitor. and as what chunky said. the 2407 has component, , composite, a dvi, and vga. the 2408 has all those + an hdmi and displayport input.

So there really aren't any negatives tot he 2408 compared to the 07?

Maybe I just misunderstood something I read somewhere but it was sitting in the back of my head when I saw these 3 go up for sale.
