Hi guys. Got a few questions I was hoping I could get some help with.
1) xvYCC. Is this something I should look for when buying a monitor? I hear its plain superior to sRGB, but not sure whether to actively look for the feature.
2) 120Hz. Is this really something important?
3) I absolutely love 1680x1050. Perfect compromise between processing power and display image. Problem is, not too many 22/24" monitors really come with the resolution as native any more. If I get a 1920x1200 monitor, and simply switch to 1680x1050 when running a demanding game, will it look alright, or is that a bad idea? Ive got a (dying) 226BW at the moment, so that would be my reference.
4) IPS panels seem like the way to go - but which one should you go for when buying a monitor? H-IPS, E-IPS or IPS-Pro? Is IPS-Pro even the same thing as P-IPS?
If its of any significance, im looking for a monitor that will be mainly used for gaming, and perhaps watching a movie every so often.
Many thanks in advance.
