ugh... paid $360 for a 22" 1650x1080 back in the day. i cant even resell it for $150 now.... actually i should try craigslist. ill say its the older better style lcd when they had better color saturation... yeah that might work.
I'm probably going to pick up some extra TN panels for around my office. I need to replace the aging monitor on my test bench and add another for my server/secondary workstations. I damn sure won't get this model though. I hate glossy panels. Great price though.
question- does downscaling on this monitor effect the sharpness or quality of text much? i know its a non issue since games can scale well on any lcd, but i was just curious to how it does on the desktop with lower resolutions.... what does 1080p look like on it?
Dan, this isn't a glossy panel. Matte finish, and one of the better ones at that. The high glossy they're referring to is the bezel and stand.
Gives a rough idea. I think it scales pretty well myself. One of the better scaling panels I've had.
edit: better pics.
Wasn't it $169 or something. I really wanted this one (or another 30"). Somehow I'm more attracted to 16:9 than to 16:10.
regardless, this is not a good deal on this screen. stop posting to the thread or lock it.
i find it amazing how itchy everyone is to lock threads in a discussion forum deals are relevant to many factors other then price, and this deal here is not a ripoff... so whats your problem with people talking?
Paying one cent more than the lowest possible price is a ripoff.
This is $20-30 more expensive than the lowest prices on this monitor.

The thread should be locked because this is, in fact, NOT a [H]otdeal.
This is the [H]otdeals discussion forum, not the Displays and Monitors discussion forum. Which is where your discussion belongs.
I'm not bashing the screen at all. I have two of them, and love them. I posted the ACTUAL hot deal on this screen a month ago.
Its a good deal compared to other prices available RIGHT NOW. Its a good $30-$50 cheaper than any other online site.
....
And the REAL deal of the day:

Oh look, it's only $150.
Learn 2 find good deals and not post bad ones on [H]otdeals. thnx.
Got one from TigerDirect, keep getting these faint red flickering horizontal and vertical lines all over, in both VGA and DVI. Anyone else having this problem with their panel?
I'd imagine people who cry foul on TN panels, don't even own a S-IPS panel either.
I have a Dell 30 S-IPS, next to two Sceptre 19 TN's, and guess what? The Dell looks better, has better pictures, and I will be buying 2 more whenever I can to replace the 19's. But know whats funny? The 19's don't look bad at all. In fact, if I wasn't doing 2D, or 3D work, and trying to be color correct, I wouldn't care to much either. TN panels are fine for 95% of tasks, they will not rape your children, burn down your house, and take your wife. They aren't as good as S-IPS, but its not like they can't be used, I mean seriously, even CRT monitors are fine, just take up to much space.
I calibrated all 3 monitors to be as color correct as possible, with my Pantone.
If you can afford a S-IPS go for it, but its not end all getting a TN.
