Ended up getting the Dell U2311H right now.

I also agree, I often think that a good monitor/mouse/kb is some of the best upgrades you can make to a computer. A powerful videocard will make playing games better, a good monitor will make everything you do with the PC better.

Color accuracy, viewing angles, and contrast ratio. Compare it side by side with a crappy monitor and you'll be able to tell.

So what happens when you don't have a crappy monitor to compare with? :hmm:


I'm just joking though, if it wasn't apparent. I'm looking forward to getting something other than a cheap TN panel for my next monitor!

Hmm, I think you've hit on something there. Destroy all the good monitors and nobody will know the difference! :twisted:
