Apologies for another, but I'm in the process of puting together bits for a new system (been using the 'Spec Me' thread in the HW forum), and thought I'd check here for final suggestions on which 24" to get, as I'm still not really sure! :confused:

The primary use for the new sytem will be for FS9/FSX, and possibly a few other games, plus a teenie bit of photo editing/manipulation at times, which is not a life or death matter.

Now, in the 'Spec Me' thread, two monitors which have been suggested so far are the BenQ V2400W & the more expensive Hazro HZ24Wi, plus I've had my eye on the Acer G24, although not sure how much I like the colour!

I've read the various threads here and the customer reviews on OCUK of each, and it seems they are good choices if you have the budget. I know both the BenQ V2400W & Acer G24 are TN panels, and from other reviews I've read, the main gripe is that they are a tad expensive for TN technology.

The Hazro on the other hand is H-IPS and I guess reflected in the price, and I must admit looks rather nice. However, if I was going to spend that much, I'd be tempted to get the Dell Ultrasharp 2408WFP given it's reputation, although it probably isn't a good choice for gaming as I know it has issues with lag.

If I was to go with a TN panel, is the extra cost of the BenQ V2400W & Acer G24 justifed, or could I save a few quid and go for something like the Dell TrueColour E248WFP or Samsung SM-2443BW?
