But can any of you early buyers test for any sort of input lag?
That to me is almost more important then color, and to some part refersh rate.

You have to hold the input selection button until the OSD pops up. It takes a couple of seconds, but it'll get there.
NO. you have a very good 8-bit panel in that Gateway.falconman515 said:I sure wish we could get some more info on this moniter i have a raincheck for this moniter at besy buy and i'll be geting one wehn it comes in, i have the Gateway PHD2185W HD 21" Widescreen moniter at the moment and i love it cause of all the inputs but this moniter seems to almost have the same spec minus a lower contrast ratio but has the same inputs as the gateway but is 100 bucks cheaper and has an inch more screen......would geting this one over the Gateway be worth it? 1 more inch, same inputs, 100 bucks less 3ms faster responce time.....seems like a good deal to me???????

deanx0r, here are my settings. I've found that the Contrast setting makes bright colors white, if added much at all. Hence:
Red: 100
Green: 96
Blue: 100
Brightness: 100
Contrast: 0
This should give you the best colors all around, from my testing. The increased color values help fix the lack of Contrast, though the Brightness setting is pretty much up for grabs based on whatever you prefer. I like a lot of brightness.

theres a reason its a $100 cheaper. if you plan on keeping the monitor for a while then why get a lower quality one? just keep the gateway since it has a much better panel.falconman515 said:whats the difference between a 6bit panel and an 8bit panel?
will i even notice the difference if i go with the westinghouse? if its not a big deal and the picture looks juts as good as do games....dang for the extra inch in screen size, faster response time, and all the same otions and HD for 100$ less than the gateway i have know its hard to pass up....i have until tuesday to return my gateway just wanting to find out if itd worth the 100 bucks savings?????
My big kicker is the 100 dollar savings and man to have that extra inch it makes the screen higher to the height of a regular 19" screen but still as wide as the 21" i have know i want a bigger viewing area for web pages, games, and for my 1080i Xbox360 gaming once i get it.......this is so hard to figure out if i should exchange the gateway i have for this one?!?!?
