For your info, dynamic does not save electricity, it's just auto brightness/contrast adjust according to the display lightning, it gives a impression that it has high contrast ratio (false advertising as always).
And for your info, power saving is way too significant nowadays with LED backlit, the main component that drive the LCD panel is the one that consume the most power.

Dell U2312HM. Why? well, take your time flip at least 10 pages back to read some comments on this.
Since you can fork up to RM 600, Dell U2312HM is at around RM580, a very good deal for its quality and service.

Your preference? If you're sitting further than 3' (feet) then 27" is much better choice (1080p).
If you're on a desk and under 2' viewing distance then 23".

Have tried the stand of the U2312HM, really easy and light to rotate, but of course it's best to use both hand to handle the panel.

Ah, didn't state that clearly?
They're the same, just need a little force to do it, very easy, of course I assume you don't do it frequently? Might worn out the stopper and become loose after sometimes, but I haven see any problem with this type of stand so far.

Added on July 15, 2012, 7:19 amDepends on your budget and resolution you want to get.
If you can sit further away then bigger the better, some people wants 27" 1080p.
I have a 23" 1080p and I don't see any visible pixels, and I'm sitting 2' away so PPI doesn't matter here.
If you're seriously about PPI then wait few more years for the PPI to get even denser, Intel predicted somewhere next year, 23" might get 3000x2000 or higher.
Look at Apple latest MacBook Pro, a good start.

Unfortunately only 21.5" and above has 1080p that I know so far, but if you don't mind the 900p only, then it's fine just take the 20" and be content with it, Full HD movie will get shrink-ed though, so it's your call.

Take the Dell, convert HDMI to DVI, use line-out to speaker

Depends on your preference, if you does not mind the thick bezel then 3x U2312HM, otherwise U3011.
U3011 is H-IPS while U2312HM is e-IPS, both technology is greatly different if you focus on colour accuracy, which is why the high price (U3011).
And FYI, U3011 uses CCFL, if you're one that only take LED backlit then only U2312HM or the slightly higher resolution U2412M.

Hope this helps.

Take a 8MP picture and view in a small phone screen, and view on full screen, that's shrink, you decrease the size to make it full screen in order to view it all, same goes to movie, you might not notice until you compare with monitor capable of FHD (Full HD), there're some lost of details especially those high quality FHD movies.
Gaming is almost same but you won't notice as much as movies, vector image has much flexibility than still image.
There're still some hardcore gamers on 17" or 19" CRT monitor out there (rare species??), they're on 1024x768 or 1280x1024 resolution.

You'll have to manually adjust it at the resolution panel, if it does not have such option, perhaps you can add it as additional resolution at either NVidia, AMD or Intel control panel (provided the driver support it), but beware that such resolution will not display correctly as expected, and using such resolution full screen shall see some pixels being doubled to fit the space thus it'll either looks blurry or the picture has double-image effect.

Or if you can, just go to local store, should have plenty of options and lots of much affordable price.

Note: Dell price is inclusive delivery to door step. Call for warranty also engineer will go to door step.
Can use Bank draft/Cheque payment as well.

Review isn't that convincing, need more professional reviews to see the calibrated result, overall screen brightness, backlit bleed, etc etc.
I'll still recommend Dell though, best service.

Good quality control does not guarantee you zero dead pixel.

It's a delusion/hoax , I can game with my 16ms monitor (measured, advertised at 5ms).
That U2312HM is a true 8ms (reviewed, measured by professional), if you want a real hardcore FPS monitor, goes for those 120Hz monitor instead, those are true deals for hardcore FPS gamer when used in 2D mode.
As for graphics, any monitor is fine I guess, but if you want very very good color then U2410 or higher, U2312HM is basic entry IPS, for entertainment... I guess.

Definitely left one correct, cybersans already point out the measurement.
If it's the right one, the measurement (diagonal) would be the same for both black and red.
FOV from 23" to 24" is only very small amount, doubt you'll really notice it, only if you move to a 4:3 or 5:4 (you already knew it)

Those comparison is actually mis-information, the numbers is not accurate since 24" 16:9 is also 1920x1080p, which means it's a comparison between 1080p vs 1200p.
I won't take losing that little pixels as losing a game in FOV, serious FOV would take something like AMD Eyefinity or nVidia Surround.
Some hardcore gamers even use CRT... hey.. that's 4:3 or 5:4, you lose even more FOV???!!

That's weird for games that does not support 1200p and it can support 1080p, maybe I haven tried 1200p monitor yet (darn my wallet, come on... ).
But I'm sure most modern games able to support any resolution, just 1080p has become entertainment industries standard due to Full HD movies standard, this is especially the TVs, we're all just following the TREND.

Yes, it's stated in its specification list, accessories included.

And... ISP => IPS.

Yes~~ finally a bigger (much affordable? alternatives?) display.
If price is below RM1.5k then it's a steal, but most probably won't be on first launch.
Lets wait and see.
