The DPI has never been a problem for me, neither has the anti-glare coating. Since this is a PVA model, it suffers quality loss at angles. The quality is not a change of color, but a very slight lightening of the picture. If you're looking at it from a steep angle and the screen is showing a...

You're not going to see TN advertised anywhere. It's one of those things that you'll only find on special sites that list panels used per model. But let me say it simply: if it has a response time of less than 5ms, it's a TN. What kind of gaming do you do? Is it professional, where you have...

Well, I wouldn't say stretching is complete garbage, but it is stretching. Think of it like zooming into a Jpeg (just without compression artifacts). The best word I have for it is "blurry" For computing, text, and whatnot, it's just not good enough. For gaming, I think it'll be fine. As with...

Well, also consider that with an 8800gt, you will probably be able to run most of your games at 1920x1200 anyway ;)

The monitor can't do 1:1 mapping with black bars by itself. As far as I know, I can't find an option in my ATI control panel to do that through graphics drivers. But I did hear that Nvidia cards CAN do this through the driver. I would say you should research the capability of whatever video...

Most 22" panels use TN technology which is quite cheap. I honestly think that most of the ones I saw in that range/category looked more or less the same. I don't know the exchange rate, but $230-$300 US is about the range for these monitors.

Just go for the BenQ FP241W - it's a great "all around" monitor. I am greatly satisfied with my Lenovo l220x - it's only 22" but has 1920x1200 resolution.

I've never had the pleasure to own or look at a high end NEC, but let me propose the following logic for you, and see if it's of any help. Dell does not market their monitors to the high end. Their market is consumer. They do use S-IPS, which is good, but they also go for economy solutions in...

Here's a picture with a dime, not a penny. Couldn't find a penny, hah. I am right now on a Thinkpad T41. I have 1440x1050 at 15". The thinkpad's pixel density is higher than the L220x. So, if you're used to a 1440x1050, this monitor will feel like it's got huuge jumbo letters for ya ;)

Unfortunately the last CRT I had died a few years back and resides in the nethers of my house. Would it work if I test it against another LCD whose response time has been recorded already? At least for an estimate. I'm unfortunately running this display off of my laptop until my MacPro...

Hi guys, I'm new to the forum, but I recently got a L220x monitor and since there was no in depth review on the site I wanted to post one of my own. Ask any further questions if anything's unclear! Physical Build: The L220x resides on a sturdy stand. It doesn’t wobble or make you feel as if...
