I think its time i upgraded from my trusty 19" crt, i have been looking at 2

V7 L22WD 22" Widescreen LCD Monitor -

Belinea 2225S1W 22" Widescreen LCD Monitor -
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MO-006-BE

I have read the user reviews and both get good reviews, my main thing is does it really make that much difference not having dvi on the belinea one and how is wide screen gaming in general, i play 2142 a lot and will be on a 8800gts.
 
I just can't grasp how they can be so good at the price, you can pay that for a 19" widescreen so what are you losing on in quality.

They only have a single analogue input. Mine has DVI analogue s-video and composite.

V7 L22WD 22" Widescreen LCD Monitor - Black/Silver

1680x1050 Resolution, 700:1 Contrast Ratio, 5ms Response Time, 280 cd/m2 Brightness, 1x Analogue Input, 1x Digital Input, 3yr On-Site Warranty

that has analogue and dvi, may go for that one or could cut down the size and go for a Dell E207WFP 20" Widescreen LCD Monitor - Black says this about it
It offers analog (VGA) and digital (DVI - Digital Video Interface) with HDCP support (High-Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) connectivity, helping to ensure a high quality image and enables the viewing of protected high-definition content such as HD-format video

So would this be a better all round tft as i would use it for films etc too.

Yeah but just wondering what you do actually miss out on, would prefer a decent 20" than a average 22".

I got a L22WD, its fantastic via DVI for the PC for gaming and via VGA for 360.

Search for the thread on here, lots of info on it. It's called v7 22" or something

how does i look via normal vga though as buying a dvi cable will have to wait.
 
Just noticed another thread Gibbo said this so will take his advice.

Hi there

I know we sell these but I've got to say these are truly impressive.

I've now seen the Video 7, Belinea, Asus, Viewsonic and Samsung due to the fact we stock and sell all of these.

No word of a lie the Belinea delivers the best image quality out of them all which I find kinda puzzling as its analogue and the others we sell are DVI and a lot more expensive. If it was my money I'd buy the Belinea its the best performance and the cheapest one we sell. In fact I'd buy a DELL 24" panel but out of the 22" Belinea win win.
 
Just bad luck i would say, don't matter what make you get some will die you just unlucky it was you.
 
What are these like for gaming on, 3 have my eye the

Belinea 2225S1W 22"
Dell E207WFP 20" Widescreen
V7 L22WD 22" Widescreen

Never really looked at widescreen support on games as only on a crt 19", what to you guys think who have either of those on 2142 and other games, i see a lot about 1.1 mapping or somet what does that mean and do these have it.
 
I was thinking maybe should look at 20.1" too, i noticed this model

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MO-003-BE

It says this about the screen Featuring the latest panel AU O offering unbeatable visual quality and performance

Now is this sort of screen far better than the TN(i know nowt about tft's), would love a 22" but maybe cutting down too a decent quality 20" but that has 8ms instead of 5ms on the 22" anyone clear this up.
 
After talking to a pretty knowledgeable chap that was serving today, he advised me to get the Dell E207WFP 20", pretty good i goto say, bf2142 looks stunning.

One thing though i can't seem to see where the stand adjusts, has this model not got adjustable stand ?
 
Was £199 inc vat, yeah seems good i knew it had the same pannel type the viewing angle i can't see any probs with tbfh.
