Hello, I would like to kindly ask you for assistance to choose the right LCD. I went through various sites and forums, used the buyers and features guide here at prad.de but I still cannot decide. The more I know the worse is to choose the right one.

My experience from the past:
My first LCD was NEC MultiSync 1760NX (4 years usage). It was 17" TN. I played quite lot FPS games with this one. I was generally very satisfied with this one. My second LCD was HP w2207h (2 years usage) and I also had HP w2228h and w2229h for short time, those were all rubish.

My current requirements:
- primary usage: internet browsing, office work, viewing and basic editing of pictures
- secondary usage: movies watching, games (FPS)
- panel: IPS, matt
- gamut: I think that sRGB would be suitable for me as I am not graphic proffesional and AdobeRGB may have some side effect for my standard usage.
- 10-bit per color: I think this is not required for me. It would be "over-performed". I do not have have other hardware and software that would benefit from this.
- aspect ratio / resolution: 16:10 / 22" 1680x1050 or 24" 1920x1200
- viewing angles: there will be sometime more people watching at this LCD so good viewing angles are required
- inputs:

• DVI + HDMI (or 2x HDMI or 2x DVI) - DVI/HDMI for PC VGA and PS3/Xbox360 output
• analog (e.g. composite) - not a must but my old PS2 would appreciate it
• displayport - not sure if there is any benefit, so not sure if to require this, my current VGA does not this output, I suppose that my future VGA will have some HDMI or DVI

- speakers - not required but they may be there (if they are there then HDMI is required)
- adjustment - good options are required (vertical and also angle)
- cost - about 700 € (it can be less), maximum 1000 €

I narrowed the selection to the following models (not all requirements were met, it is all about compromise)

22"
- Dell 2209WA
- LG W2220-P

23"
- NEC EA231WMi (I know this is 23" and 1920x1080 but it looks quite good and I have very good experience with NEC, it is an exception that deserved my attention)

24"
- Dell U2410
- HP 2475w
- HP ZR24w

I wanted to check also some Eizo display but I did not succeed to find IPS Eizo for my needs.
I had 22" Fujitsu P22W-5 ECO at home for two days. It was not a bad display but it just did not fit my feelings.

I read many reviews and user forums ans narrowed the selection to the following models:
NEC: EA231WMi (e-IPS, 320 €)
Dell: 2209WA (e-IPS, 300 €), U2311H (e-IPS, 310 €)
Eizo: SX2262W (S-PVA, 730 €), EV2333W (S-PVA, 440 €)

I can't see an aoption how to edit older post...

New selection:
NEC:

• EA231WMi (e-IPS 1920x1080, 320)

Dell:

• 2209WA (e-IPS 1680x1050, 300)
  
• U2311H (e-IPS 1920x1080, 310)

Eizo:

• SX2262W (S-PVA 1920x1200, 730)
• EV2333W (S-PVA 1920x1080, 440)
• S2233W (S-PVA 1680x1050, 500)
• S2243W (S-PVA 1920x1200, 550)
• S2433W (S-PVA 1920x1200, 770)

I am trying to get some reviews for Eizo S2233W and S2243W. Any idea where to search? I looked here at prad.de and at tftcentral.co.uk. I do not want just google as I can get false information.

one more selection reduction:

22”
Dell 2209WA (e-IPS 1680x1050, 300)

23”
Dell U2311H (e-IPS 1920x1080, 310)
NEC EA231WMi (e-IPS 1920x1080, 320)
Eizo EV2333W (S-PVA 1920x1080, 440)

The final selection is Dell U2311H.

Dell 2209WA is much smarter choice for u, he got 6ms response (8ms=ghosting) and the most valuable thing is his accurate color (default).
don't get upset that he is not full HD It is Really less important than his other advantage.

enjoy

I reconsidered it all and started from scratch. I took Eizo FlexScan SX2262W.

It suits all my needs.

Lol u make the right thing not taking the u2311. It's crap. PM me if you want some info (own one and using it now)

I think it would be better if you share your experience here, making it public to help more people.
