Anyone got Iiyama ProLite E2409HDS

I'm looking at buying this monitor, and someone said on another website that it whines, is this true? as I would be annoyed by it.

And your opinions of course of the monitor itself.

Thanks!

Well all the people who wrote reviews on this site seem to be very happy. See here

Iiyama seem to make very good monitors for the price so I don't think you will be unhappy with it. The whine the guy on the other forum heard might have been coil whine from the video card. It happens me occasionally when I turn on my monitor.

lol what the hell they was out of stock a minute ago , but yeah looks good, i was originally going to go with a benq but it has a glossy frame compared to matte on the Iilyama.

I have one, they are great - no 'whining' or any problems at all. Speakers are rubbish but as much as you would expect because its a monitor...

Thanks for the reply, i've bought the monitor, also i won't be using the speakers haha, can't wait to move off VGA.

Let me know how this goes, currently got my eye on one in my short-list of monitors

Received it yesterday, this is the LCD version not LED.

Positive
-Nice looking
-No glossy frame
-Eco thingy reduces back-light brightness but keeping the decent colours (which is good for my eyes) and power consumption
-Cheap
-No dead pixels

Negative
-Has minor back-light bleed in the bottom right but it's hardly noticeable

Thanks for the update, I'm still no closer in making my decision :S

Don't want to jack the thread, I have my own called "Best Bang for Buck 24" Monitor"
