Any 24" monitors with thin bezels?

[SpicyTime]

I'm looking to do a 3x1 Eyefinity setup. I like the bezel size of the Dell U2410 and HP ZR24W. The thing is, I don't do any photo editting and am not really bothered by the drawbacks of TN monitors. I'm not sure I want to pay such a hefty premium on those IPS panels just for thin bezels (and a nice clean base with swivel and pivot).

Do you guys have any recommendations?

I remember seeing an Acer LED at Fry's that had a really thin bezel, can't remember the model though, it is the one I was eyeing for my setup.

You will have to spend money regardless cause you will never find all the things you want in a cheap package.

1. Good base
2. Swivel and Pivot
3. Thin bezels

I've never seen a cheap monitor with a good base that has pivot and swivel. On the other side I've never seen a monitor with thin bezels that has all of the above that is cheap.

Hopefully someone can post some suggestions I would be interested in knowing since a friend of mine is looking for something similar.

Potentially, I could buy desk mount monitor arms to provide the swivel and pivot. Hopefully, the price the TN monitor arm is cheaper than IPS displays. Otherwise, I just might go triple IPS.

A single monitor arm will be cheaper yes, but if you are looking for a triple monitor arm for that setup it won't be. Starting price will be $250 an up!

I know the money is a factor but the triple IPS setup will be better for two big reasons viewing angles and colour shifting which are two bad things about TN panels. And I believe you will run into those in a tripple monitor Sli or Xfire setup.

If you get a few U2410 IPS panels and it turns out that you don't like Eyefinity or get tired of it then you have displays that will be pretty easy to sell, that will retain a lot of their value.
I don't know that a trio of cheap TN panels will be much of a sales winner for you however...:\

I decided to go with the three IPS panel route (Dell U2412M). These were on sale 20% off when I called in. I think three TN panels, each with a monitor arm puts it in the same price ballpark as the three U2412Ms. The latter gives much less headaches so I'm pretty happy with my decision.

Thanks for all the advice!

Samsung gave their new monitors a 3 finger gap!
