    High-pitched sound from HP LP2065

    Yeah I think I'll have to do that... a pity because this particular screen seems really good: no dead/stuck pixels and not much backlight bleed. But I can't stand this buzz, so RMA it will have to be :(

    High-pitched sound from HP LP2065

    First of all, let me just say I've posted this in another forum too (on another site), I hope that's OK. I've just received my HP LP2065 (I can confirm it uses an S-IPS panel) and it emits a high-pitched sound while operating :( I'd really appreciate any comments from people with the same...

    20" S-IPS panels, LM201U0x

    OK, I've received my HP LP2065, and I can confirm it's an S-IPS panel. I'm not going to dismantle it, but looking from the side, blacks become a definite purple. Also, shadow detail is consistent across the screen, both perpendicularly and from an angle. My first impressions are good, but...

    20" S-IPS panels, LM201U0x

    You're kidding! Not another lottery? I was actually placing my order for it and checked back to the forum for any last updates... Have you got any reason to believe it's a S-PVA panel except for that particular link? My own research has suggested otherwise. For example: A thread on this...

    LG L245WP - the first S-IPS 24"

    Wow! The price seems unbelievable, if true. Makes me want to hold off buying a 1600x1200 monitor. I didn't want less than 1200 vertical res, but a 1920x1200 monitor at a comparable price makes me pause... (but I can't wait, I've just moved and don't have a monitor *at all*; typing this on a...

    20" S-IPS panels, LM201U0x

    The dell 2007fp is a lottery as far as the panel is concerned, but your chances are not good if you want an S-IPS panel. It seems all recent 2007fp monitors now use a PVA panel (as far as I can tell by reading forums). As you may have noticed, there isn't a whole lot of choice for 20 inch 4:3...

    A few clarifications about monitor specs please

    OK, we all know that manufacturers lie in your face about specs, so I'd like to ask people's opinions about a few things. Contrast ratio: I understand this measures the difference between the darkest and lightest shades, and I guess in practice means that screens with high contrast have good...

    20" S-IPS panels, LM201U0x

    This thread is about the comparing 20" (A)S-IPS panels. In particular, I will post my findings about the 4:3 LM201U04 and LM201U05 panels, and compare to the 16:9 LM201WE2 panel. For reference, the following monitors use these panels (according to TFT central): LM201U04: Dell 2001FP, NEC...

    Need 1600x1200 monitor

    @Isaacav2: You know, it hurt to let go of the Samsung 204B. It is so damn stylish, and I loved it on my desk! Plus it's the cheapest of the lot (at least in UK). Unfortunately the vertical viewing angles were annoying, and as for the "grainy" appearance of the picture, I'll have to report back...

    Need 1600x1200 monitor

    I'm looking to buy a 20" non-widescreen TFT, as I value the desktop space of a 1600x1200 monitor. I quite like the 4:3 ratio for daily work and games, and I have a projector for watching movies. I list the screens I'm considering below. I'd appreciate any comments about them, especially...

    iiyama e511s-b2 - 6bit vs 8bit?

    I'm looking for a 8bit 20" panel (4:3, 1600x1200), and was considering the iiyama e511s-b2, as it is a *VA panel claiming 16,7mil colours. However, I just got this email from iiyama (names removed to preserve privacy): > E511S-B2 is a 6 bit panel that display 16,7 million colours through >...
