Eizo Foris FX2431 (S-PVA) vs Nec PA241 (H-IPS)

    Hi all,
    this two monitors has quitely the same price.


    I'm really in doubt on what monitor choose between
    Eizo Foris FX2431 (S-PVA) or
    Nec PA241 (H-IPS)


    Everywhere I read that H-IPS is preferrable from S-PVA but is this true?


    I need a generic monitor for every use:
    programming,
    photos,
    3d graphics,
    sometimes some videogame.


    What monitor will be the right choose for me and why?


    Thanks.

    the eizo is better for gaming and the nec is better for graphics and photos. the best choice for everything and the better quality would be the nec pa271w. this monitor gives you the best price/quality relationship that you can find on the whole market at the moment and has short reactions of 6ms that are good enough for gaming compared with beautiful colors man :thumbup:

    I add, I want a good color accuracy but my activity is programming,
    I want an excellent compromise for a all rounding use with a great color accuracy.


    Please help :)

    Just to update the thread I have decided, this forum is so dead, I have decided in another forum. :)


    As sayed I will use the monitor (in order of importance) for:
    - programming from day to night varing from 110cd/m2 to 150-160cd/m2,
    - photoshop, blender, maya, 3d studio
    - some good videogames
    - TV and bluray


    I'm sure that NEC PA241W is the winner when talking about color professionist but I'm also quite sure that after dozens of readden reviews and after your suggestion it will not be the right monitor for me.


    I really like high contrast and I really like deep black, Nec scores half in this at 140cd/m2 than the Foris.


    Nec what I don't like:
    I prefer the Foris CR
    I prefer the Foris Black level
    I don't like the juddering problem of the Nec.
    I don't like the HDMI Cec lack and connectivity in general.
    I don't like to hear the monitor when programming in the night.
    I prefer 0.6ms and the thru mode for fast games.
    I miss the deinterlacer.
    I don't like the glow effect.
    I prefer the Eizo support, it answered me in 24 hours, since one week I haven't received any answer yet from the nec, Eizo will change my monitor for a single dead pixel in the first week.
    I have heard too many backlight bleeding with this model, monitorrat is another user who gived the proof on this.


    Eizo what I don't like:
    I don't like color shift
    I prefer the Nec viewing angle,
    I prefer the Nec color accuracy but as someone sayed regarding eizo, a monitor that pass the UGRA test with easy cannot be that bad.


    That's all.
    Balancing pro and cons as a role playing game Eizo Foris FX2431 is the monitor for me.

    Zitat

    It is not dead but because the discussion was already quite comprehensive @hardforum I've seen no cause to double post.

    Hi,
    Denis nice to meet you here also.


    I hoped that this forum has some different user than hardforum,
    so opening the same thread here seemed reasonable to me.


    Thanks for your help Denis.


    Best Regards,
    Davide.
