BenQ V2400W 24" Wide LCD Monitor
I've had my eye on this new monitor for weeks, but it just won't appear in any UK stores!
I haven't seen anyone talking about it here on the oc forum, but it's worth a mention.
A handful of smaller stores have it listed but there has not been any saying in stock, some stores were due to have some come in last tuesday but they never arrived (I was wanting one!). Can OC provide any info here about the availability of this new monitor? will OC be getting it in soon?
It will be selling for around £300 and is what looks to be a direct competitor to samsung for a good gaming monitor. The samsung sm245b on power use is 100W max but this V2400W is nearly half that at 55W max, that's a lot of power saving and probably less heat/noise (if any).
It's built with what looks to be some of the technology from the G2400W which is a great price at the moment (around £250) - if you can stand the boring design.
the V2400W is a world apart from the G2400W though, the design alone makes it stand out and will be an instant high on the list selling point for many. It also boasts HDMI (a headphone port for sound) dvi and vga, 2ms GTG AMA technology, 1:1 fix good for consoles (not confirmed but the G2400W had it - can't see why this wouldn't). There's tilt, but no height adjust.
This must be a TN panel because of the low ms and viewing angles, I think this monitor will be of great interest to gamers, and will look verrry nice on your desk.
See for yourself:

Apparently it's the worlds slimmest 24" TFT as well.
