Should I get this monitor? - Hardware & Software

This looks like a fantastic monitor, is it worth the money? [url]http://www.cendirect.com/main_en/tech_specs.php?rPart_no=JO95721M&rSrc=sb[/url]

My brother has it, and its amazing, even better if your doing nVidia 3D vision.

Would it be more worth getting this than a new PC? (My Current one isn't that bad).

Fuck no. For $339 CAD you can get a Dell U2311H. [editline]01:57AM[/editline] what THE FUCK why is Dell's Canadian shit so much fucking cheaper?

[QUOTE=Odellus;23723074]Fuck no. For $339 CAD you can get a Dell U2311H.[/QUOTE] Is it 120hz?

[QUOTE=Kel|oggs;23723091]Is it 120hz?[/QUOTE] No and that doesn't matter. It's a high end IPS panel.

[QUOTE=Odellus;23723141]No and that doesn't matter. It's a high end IPS panel.[/QUOTE] 8ms response time... 10000:1 CR. Sounds worth the 340 dollars still? I'm looking for a gaming monitor.

And you're really going by dynamic contrast ratio? By the way, it doesn't ghost. [editline]02:09AM[/editline] Color reproduction in IPS panels is so much better than TN. [editline]02:10AM[/editline] And actually the U2311H isn't worth it when the U2211 is $219 CAD.

I still think its worth it.

[QUOTE=Odellus;23723440][url]http://www.pchardwarehelp.com/guides/lcd-panel-types.php[/url][/QUOTE] So basically, the color doesn't fade when you look at the screen from an angle? And I do play a lot of faced paced games, like Quake. So this wouldn't be good for that. [editline]11:37PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Death.;23723487]I still think its worth it.[/QUOTE] So do I.

I don't care who you are, it's better in pretty much every way (ignoring the bulk of DSLRs.)

IPS Panels beat the living shit out TN panels. 3D is a gimmick and so is 120Hz.
