1920 x 1200 for around £200

I have a Samsung 2443BW.

It's great for gaming. There's a review somewhere showing very low lag.

Here are the brightness / contrast settings I use:

Brightness = 40
Contrast = 70
Magicolor = Off
Color Tone = Normal
Gamma = Mode 3
 
Yeah, sorry posted in the other thread.

Box was pre-opened as per usual from OcUK. Slight scuff on the bezel where it had been rubbing on the polystyrene packing (wasn't wrapped properly). but screen seems just fine :)

That would annoy me! You buy new and you should get new - you not going to complain?

It does annoy me, but pretty much all the things I have bought from OcUK have been pre-opened (and that's a fair few things), so I'm thinking it's just what they do.....

Not much point in complaining as the monitor works fine, but I may send a webnote about the pre-opened box...
 
So is it any good? I'll probably order one of these myself if you rate it well.

You have exactly the same requirements as I do for a monitor, saved me making a thread :) .
 
Weird, I've personally not had anything opened by OCUK, I've only bought one monitor from them though, bought lots of mobos and CPU's etc...

I'm pretty much set on this screen as a decent looking, large, adjustable quality display for a fair price. My usage will be gaming and browsing. TN will do me this time around - my Viewsonic VX922 I'd say is far worse than the SM2443 in terms of colour, and that has done me for three years!

I thought you said you had a couple of stuck pixels too. :confused:
 
I've got the Samsung 2433BW same panel IIRC just different design.

I got this about 3 months ago and am very happy with it for the money :)

Enjoy your 2443BW :D
 
Ermm Yes and no :p , I messed around with the settings one day and left it.

I've now used the settings that Jimbo posted above, it looks even better now :)

Yeah, I mean, I have not had it myself the 4850 I got from OCUK was B-Grade, so bound to be opened.
Hearing of receiving already opened goods from OCUK is slightly, (Only slightly.) off-putting.
I mean, again, is it not part of the magic of receiving a new item, unboxing it and knowing you are the first to handle it.
Plus all the assurance that comes with knowing it is previously, unopened:cool:
