H233H : Last I went to Low Yat they have some promotion RM630. I feel it's a good buy.. but glossy screen turned me off.

hahaha serious???if all P LCD like that mampui wey samsung repo that i trusted a lot in the company

Currently I'm considering the Samsung P2350, P2370, 2494SH and the AOC 2434.
Actually 0.6 inch difference is a lot?

I'm kinda confuse right now. I have no idea go for which one.
Those LCDs are superior in their contrast ratio.

For connections, I hope to get DVI and HDMI ports together so that it can be used for old and new machines.

Anyone here could help?

what is a good website for articles about choosing lcd monitor from 17" to 24"

Finally im able to adjust the height for my AOC 2434. Just incase for those who still unable to do so, u need to press the button and push the monitor downwards to unlock it.

but i can clearly see the screen flicker on my previous Samsung 2233SW  when i sitting in front of it.      (very obvious)

Same thing happen to my fren's unit .

( i am connect it with my laptop's nvidia Geforce 9300GS , resolution at 1920 x 1080 @ 60hz) .

No idea. I just leave it like that so i can adjust whenever i like to suit my sitting position.

Sadly, I tried that x( But out of luck  Any suggestions tho?

Suggestions on which model might help?

To all u guys out there.
Between AOC Angelo (24 in?) and Dell 2209WA, which one you guys preferred?
one had 2" extra but another one is ips panel (urm... e-ips actually)
can help me?
most probably will buy it next week.
thanks!

IPS Panel Technology
S-IPS/H-IPS (In Plane Switching) panels are generally considered the best overall LCD technology for image quality, color accuracy and viewing angles, but this comes at a price. They are well suited for graphics design and other applications which require accurate and consistent color reproduction. S-IPS panels offer the best viewing angles of any current LCD technology, with wide viewing angles up to 178 degress. The response time of S-IPS is adequate, ranging from 6ms to 16ms with current panels. This is only slightly slower than TN panels. However, gamers should take this into consideration. Fast paced games may suffer from motion blur or ghosting with S-IPS panels that have a response time higher than 8ms.

S-IPS panels can be identified buy a slight purple hue on blacks when viewed from a wide angle. There are currently few manufacturers using S-IPS panels in comparison to the other panels types making choices limited and they often carry a premium price tag. H-IPS is a newer variation of S-IPS with a different pixel structure that improves contrast ratios and lowers pixel pitch to provide better picture quality.

VA Panel Technology
VA (Vertical Alignment) technology such as S-PVA/MVA are middle of the road LCD panels. They offer better color reproduction and wider viewing angles than TN panels, but have slower response times. They are very similar to S-IPS on paper. They also offer large viewing angles and good color reproduction, though not as good as S-IPS. The response times are generally worse than TN or S-IPS panels and there have been reports of a few panels that suffer from input lag, so VA technology may not be the best choice for fast paced gaming.

VA panels have the advantage of higher contrast ratios compared to other panel types, which leads to better black levels. The biggest disadvantage of VA based panels is color shifting. Color shifting is when the image viewed from one angle changes or "shifts" when viewed from a slightly different angle, making various uneven brightness levels across the display. This bothers many users to the point they will not even consider buying a VA based panel, while other users don't notice/aren't bothered by the color shifting. Color shifts also cause a loss of shadow detail in dark scenes when viewed directly from the center. VA panels are much easier to find compared to IPS because so many manufacturers use them. They offer better image quality than TN at lower price than IPS based panels.

TN Panel Technology
TN (Twisted Nematic) panels are the most widely used panel type as they are cheap and offer excellent response times, making them perfect for fast paced gaming. The response times of current TN panels range from 2ms to 5ms. However, color reproduction, viewing angles and contrast ratios of TN panels are the worst of any LCD panel technology. Unlike most 8-bit S-IPS/S-PVA/MVA panels, TN panels are only 6-bit and unable to display the full 16.7 million colors available in 24-bit true color. They can mimick the 16.7 million colors of 8-bit panels using a technique called dithering, but the results are unimpressive.

TN panels have become popular with the average user because they are very inexpensive. They are also the only panels currently being used in 22" widescreen monitors, a very popular size. Many of these 22" TN panels are around the same price or cheaper than other 20" monitors with different panel types, so it is easy to see how how they gained popularity. Afterall, the average user buys a monitor based on price and size.

guyz??

samsung p2350 n samsung 2333sw..which one should i take??

Any users using Chimei lcd? Need some feedback.

Hi Guys,

I am looking at a few options for a 23-24 monitor, under consideration are :

1.Dell S409W.
2.Samsung P2370
3.Dell G4210
4.Viewsonic  VX2433WM
Any other worthy competitors ?

Ok guys, this AOC 2434Pw has turned from ugly duckling into a swan once I swapped from VGA cable to HDMI/DVI.

I'm starting to like this AOC monitor.

VGA (previously posted):

DVI->HDMI (new):
(as attached below)

Note: This movie is a DVD rip, quality ok-ok only.

Btw the built in speakers turned out quite well if HDMI<->HDMI cable (video & audio) is used.

However this monitor is not for everyone especially if you're running a GeForce FX 5500. There's a lot of intermittent 1 sec black outs occurring and games are totally unplayable as the screen will flicker and trash your screen like crazy. Your PC will blue screen in no time. Time to upgrade PC I guess. Playing 1080 trailers gave me a 100% CPU utilization :0

yes, correct, I use HDMI cable from AOC LCD. But AOC 2434PW only has 2 ports: 1 HDMI, and 1 is VGA port not DVI.
So How to solve this problem all my frens.

Btw , dear Chris2k4, what do u mean "open cat ctrl center ->dtv(dvi)->scaling option", where is that option?
Thanks

Samsung SM2494HS, ViewSonic VX2433wm, AOC Angelo 2434Pw share the same type of panel (23.6"WS CMO TN Film (M236H1-L01)), so I guess that makes AOC a relatively worthy buy(in terms of budget; Viewsonic and Samsung are >RM700)
