The Asus VS229H-P is solid 21" IPS monitor. Solid enough monitor.
The Dell U2312HM is a solid 23" IPS monitor. Solid monitor with some neat ergonomic features and warranty.

I just want to make sure. Would the ASUS VS239H-P have the same performance and quality as the ASUS VS229H-P? The larger size makes the vs239 more attractive to me. If it makes any difference, I use Intel Core i3-2120 and Radeon HD 6870. I usually play League of Legends or Global Offensive and love watching tv and movies on my computer. | ||

Also, thank you for the work you've done on this guide. Do you recommend any simple resources to calibrate the monitor, or should I just use the "game mode" and be set? I'm afraid I don't really understand color quality to well, so I just left it at default settings for now. | ||

Yeah you basically have it right. You want the H-P because it has overdrive and the H does not. | ||

The VS239HR is probably far better than the VS239H for gaming purposes because it appears to actually have overdrive. So less ghosting. What's the price difference between the Dell and Asus? The Dell and Asus, screen-wise, are fundamentally the same. The Dell does come with a lot of hardware extras like the stand and USB ports as well as better warranty. | ||

Asus - 219$ (prices in europe far higher than in us.,..) | ||

But why would you pick the Asus over the Dell when the price difference is that small? It just seems like a no-brainer to me to get the Dell, the stand alone is worth more than the price difference. Also if the Prad review of the VS229H vs the U2312HM is any indication, you get noticeably better factory calibration with the Dell. | ||

You're right the Dell is the better option when the price difference is that small for the stand and USB hub alone. From a calobration point of view, I don't think the default calibration of the asus will be too awful. The sRGB preset of the vs239h isn't particularly amazing but the gamma is around as good/bad as the dell u2312hm's. | ||

Gamut is good, calibration looks ok, responsiveness is good ... just contrast sucks. I'm not sure it's really worth $130 when you can get an Asus VS229H-P for $145, it has far better contrast and slightly higher resolution (and it would be new with the full 3yr warranty) but you don't get the good stand.

Unfortunately for some reason it isn't available anymore, but at the same time I can't find one which is as cheap as this one with the same specs (payed about 160€ 3 years ago) Would be glad if someone could help me here :/ Can't find something with the same specs? Come on now... asking about specs? Did you bother reading the OP? Specs can be largely ignored. Asus VS229HR is 150 Euros on Amazon.de ... if you don't mind the anti-glare coating, it will probably be one of the best options within your budget range. I don't really know if there are other stand-out models for about 160 or less. The new Dell S series looks interesting (the cheaper IPS ones that is, S2240L and S2340L) but I don't know much about them yet. | ||

Well if you get >5 dead pixel, you can get it switched, I'm guessing that's the 70 dollars? | ||

Since its located at the States, its probably easy to return if the panel is defective. I'm picky about my monitors so I can tell you that LG's manufacturing consistency is not fantastic. Also I believe the Monoprice are multiple input? You might want to wait and see reviews of the monitor because a few of the cheap multiple input 2560x1440 have awful contrast (like 400:1) at usable brightness levels (120 nits).

I wouldn't bother especially if its second hand. If its S-IPS, its decent but you really want to know how many hours it has been on for because CCFL monitors can get really dim. If its S-PVA, its also CCFL so the same thing applies. Both are probably useless for gaming due to huge input lag. The only real time to go for the old monitors if its the NEC LCD2490wuxi and even then you want to know how long its been used for. Newer monitors are, generally speaking, better in every way and pretty much the same price as old high end monitors. | ||

I have read the last 5 pages +the OP and want to buy a monitor of: - around 24 inch or so (range between 21-27 seems fine) - Price under $400 US (I hope this isn't unreasonable, according to cnet atleast lol) - IPS (by your description, and looking at the iMacs this seems like a good feature to have, unless you guys can correct me on this one) - HDMI input (a must... do you feel that something else will become the new standard later? haha i dont want to buy a monitor then realise nothing will connect to it in 2-3 years, but i feel confident that HDMI will last) - Able to show ps3 content without any distortion of ratio - I have a window right next to desk so anti-glare is good (current monitor is that of a macbook pro, and it is like a mirror, so unless these new monitors have something special, i think matte is what i should need) Other features i really have no idea whats good, but i want it for gaming (that is main priority; so i want low input lag, perhaps not over 1 frame) but if it is generally good quality of picture all around that is fine too (so for movie and pictures, although i don't do graphic design anymore so its not a big issue if it is like one shade off or whatever). Ok with that all said and reading hours of reviews it seems ASUS PA248Q 24" 1920 x 1200 seems good, can anyone talk me into something better? Im not really interested in needing 16:10, 16 is totally fine, I just cant find any good monitor of this size that is 16, wonder why that is? Sorry if this is quite long and thanks for writing the OP, who knows how much time i spent comparing the companies spec's pages only to release its basically junk. edit: the smiley faces are meant to be sixteen by nine. | ||
