@viruz019

if he can get a HDTV he already wont be asking here right. he just need a budget LCD monitor firstly

woops forget to list down budget..budget would be around..600-800+

@viqq: i dn reli like a full HD tv comparing to a full HD monitor..unless if the full HD tv is something like bravia diff story ..and also im a student staying in a hostel..so yea..wud be a pain to move the tv around ><

guys pls recommend me either Dell ST2410 or Viewsonic VX2433wm ?

I recommend either will do. If you have more $$ get Dell U2410.

I recommend ST2410,perhaps is with better warrantty?Wait a while 1st if you really wanna purchase U2410,got minor problem.I am also waiting too.

between the 2 id recommend ST2410

for 3 reasons...

1/ 24" viewing area instead of the usual 23.6 like the viewsonic...i find this whole inaccuracy thing annoying... 22" are actually 21.5....24" are actually 23.6....the dell is true 24" so thats a good thing in my book (n bigger better mah, even if its only a small margin )

2/ no speakers...so theoretically the money u pay is basically going into better parts/components and not spent on speakers where other parts are cut down.

3/ dell warranty and aftersales service....kinda hard to beat theirs.

thanks all for the replies. i decided to purchase dell

whats d best 24" LCD that can be mounted on d wall...

im guessing the Dell U2410

pretty hard to find decent monitors with VESA mounts these days since the emergence of 16:9 monitors...

back when common monitors were 16:10, practically all of them had VESA mounts.

i went to digital mall and looking for that monitor but end up none of d shop selling one..sigh
can recommend me any other shop?

shops typically dont sell dell stuff....even the dell store oso u cant order monitors....i know coz i tried asking the dell store in mid valley before..

ur gonna have to order that from dell.com.my

i hate to order it online since it took more than a week to deliver...
any other way bro??
really need it asap..hehe
and is it s2140 better than d late brother s2409w?

From experience, 2-3 working days only.

seriously r?
erm..will try to rethink then...
but surely no local shops selling it r?

I can confirm that too. As long as your payment clears.
:-)

Mine was cleared late tuesday, would have received it on Friday but as it was a public holiday, I received it on Saturday instead.

the U2410? i doubt any shop would want to sell that since they have to pay for the stocks first....and thats a very expensive monitor....

a 24" monitor costing RM700 is much easier to sell than a 24" monitor costing RM1.8k

@ maDman
Would like to know how u feel about ur ST2410 color production as compare with ur old LCD?
I believe ur old LCD is a Samsung? THx

old LCD is a samsung 226bw

color production looks good to me...im not much of a videophile.....though honestly its hard for me to compare....

was using 8600gt with the 226bw and that card cant handle native reso nicely.

then i bought new GC with the ST2410 one shot...so image is of course better la considering i can run everything at native reso now
