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.

i've gave up and reset it back to manufacturer setting.. 75 / 75.. >.<

my personal suggestion, if you really into IPS..

either U2312HM or U2412M.

U2312HM within your budget range @ maybe around 560~ 590 depends your source

or fork abit higher , pain in the butt for some ppl like me

U2412M @ around 860~ 890 (FOC Razor keyboard worth RM 169) but future prove for next 2 ~ 3 years.

try to call and ask .. easier

As they wont put outside the price tag (for the free gift). I bought mine from Thundermatch.

Where are you bought the monitor with FOC, and the warranty?
I'm targeting U2412M as well... Dell site RM899 (3 year warranty) + no freebie

Anyone can recommend a monitor to me ? budget 1k, use at home,prefer at least 24"+(dont mind the bigger screen), hdmi,full HD, without speaker.
mostly for
main priority
works(A plus if the monitor can rotate to vertical physically, for programming and photo-editing purpose or have VESA mount so i can turn it vertical)
entertainment(BD movies)
Need accurate color too for photo-editing

low priority
need it to be thin as possible(would like monitor occupy less space if possible)

any monitor that suits my need ?
