Hey,
Longggg time reader, first time poster
I had been looking to upgrade my Hyundai 19" lcd monitor for some time but could never decide on which monitor to go for.
Initially I thought that I would go for the Acer G24, but didnt fancy backlight bleed in darker games and had heard a lot of bad things about it, was then thinking about the 24" NEC on OC but heard that wasent too great either.
Finally decided on the BenQ FP241W and all I can say is.... WOW
This monitor is truely amazing, I can notice no ghosting what-so-ever, I have been playing a lot of games on it, everything seems perfect. I have no dead pixels at all, all of the black tones are black as can be, all of the colours look amazing, and I havent even calibrated it yet!
I was even thinking of getting a new gfx card because I was worried that my pc wouldnt be able to handle running at 1900x1200 res (E6600, geforce 8800gtx, 4gb ram) but it seems to handle everything I can throw at it without issue.
I know Im probably gonna get a jesus.jpg but I think this is the best purchase I have ever made, a far better idea than upgrading my computers graphics card or processor, I mean, whats the point of having a mega fast pc if you dont have the display to watch it on?
I really think OCUK should start stocking this monitor, it truely is amazing!
This post is just to try and convince anyone thinking of taking the plunge and getting a big lcd to do it! You wont be sorry
