i will be getting dell st2410 with the belkin DVI and HDMI cable. just notice that ST2410 doesnt come with DVI cables have to buy it for RM98 which include HDMI and DVI cable.

anyways, thanks so much for the input guys

wow, amazingly your choice is exactly same as mine. Well, samsung B-30 series is relatively new monitor, whereas Dell st2410 is a half-year-old product.

samsung: reputable for product quality, but have backlight problem (recent year the quality has dropped and the price u pay is for the brand, coincidentally samsung boss said the latter part himself), has calibration software.

dell: reputable for after-sales-service, has what we call the legendary rma service quality status lol.., but panel might not be as good as samsung, less brightness than B2330H,

This is what i might do, I'll go pc fair to find out whether Samsung got offer or not (lowest i see for B2330H is rm619), if it gets lower, then I might consider it. As for Dell, it has promotion till 25th April, so I think i have plenty of time to ditch Samsung for Dell (the price from website is rm679, but if you're a regular customer, ask for discount).

Yes, both monitor doesn't come with USB. anyway y u need usb port when ur CPU should have the port as well?

wanna ask the dell st2410 comes vga cable??

guys
i got 1 question here
im using B2230H
n im using DVI cable[gtx275 didnt got hdmi port on it]
wat if i use converter from dvi to hdmi
will it make the picture quality will b better??

Frankly speaking, a lot of people being lured to Full HD marketing gimmick as well.

The reason why I said so, is because a lot of people have a misconception that Full HD monitor has sharper and has better screen display.

In real fact, if your source is not full HD resolution, there is little difference between a Full HD monitor with non-full HD monitor. As at that time (without Full HD source aka 1920 x1080), it is the panel quality matter the most.

Want to utilise the HD, then you must have both, ie. monitor + source.
