so apperantly they share the same tube' but the refresh rates of IIAMA is better. I don't know about visuaL QUALITY, but TOM'S liked very much the IIyama, and at forums here ppl like Samsung. Iiyama is more expensive (ab. 120$ more) at my country. probably I'm not going to play much at 1600x1200,and @ 1280x1024 the both are decent. so do you justify choosing mo expencive monitor only becouse of hier refresh rates?
