The Two LCD's I was looking at was the Hyundai L90D+ and the Samsung 940B. The problem I see with the hyundai is that lately there has been a bad batch with vertial lines of dead pixels. But the issue I'm not sure on with the samsung is the Black one is a 6-bit panel - it says 16.2 million colors - while the silver says 16.7 million, but they both are the same model, so how do I know that the silver isn't 6 bit also and newegg has a typo?

If there is another 19" LCD you would recommend then let me know too. I'd like to get the Viewsonic VX922 but it is out of my price range atm. Maybe I should just wait longer and get it later on?

Input would be appreciated :)

I had the same debate with the same 2 monitors. I almost bought the Hyundai but after reading so many reviews of bad ones in the last 2 months i bought the Samsung. Its gorgeous!!! Great for games too. That colors thing is a typo go check the official site.

The one guy who reviewed the Samsung said the color was bad because it was a 6-bit panel - Rumple, do you see any color abnormalities in the Samsung?

Samsung 940B hands down. The Hyundai often has vertical dead pixel problems.

I got the 930B which as far as I know is the same thing or similar in a different style case. Great picture and great viewing angle on it. 930B is supposedly a 6bit color display or somethign but I've never seen any issues with color.
