Anyone have the E2400HD?

As title. I quite like the look of this. True HD and 24". Decent price as well. Some pics would be nice.

It's the BenQ by the way.

Any 24" is gonna be above "True HD" (1920x1080)

From the reviews I've seen, it's got some weird problems with resolutions and scaling. Basically, any non-1080p res will look all messed up.

The E2200HD is apparently better, the E2400HD suffers from scaling issues.

Thanks for the review link. Ive been looking for one everywhere. Safe to say that I won't be touching the 24". I'm tempted to give the e2200hd a look at around £160. How many Xbox360 games are full 1080p? I'm worried about the 720p on the e2200hd. I may get an Xbox360 in the near future.

I think there have been 1, maybe 2 that have run in native 1080p. Unfortunately, neither of the next-gen machines are really capable of 1080p with a lot going on so they usually resort to 720p.

That doesn't stop you running the 360 in 1080p though. I run mine like that and any games that don't support 1080p get scaled via hardware to be output at that resolution and they look fine. The upscaling is pretty decent on the 360 and it's free (processor usage wise) to upscale. You also get the system blades at a higher res which is good and of course, with the NXE on the way, it may be even better.
