guys... how good/value for money is this monitor compared with other brand (including the price):

DELL E207WFP 20" Wide

eh guys... what is the equivalent of Dell E207WFP 20" for Samsung??

Want to widen my choices.

Samsung 940BW I assume?? Heard it was the official monitor for WCG last year (or the year before)...

Just wondering mr. kingmaker... is there any good shops selling LCD monitor in Taiping??

I tried surveying a little in Penang... and even PC Depot's best is only 19"... no 20"

what is the current price for Samsung 206BW?? And anyone knows where I can find it in Penang??

Aye... poor us Perak/Penang people... so hard to find 20" monitor here...



Anyway,
Guys... need your opinion on this... after some thinking I think 20" wide is kinda too big for me to bring to my college... so... I want to ask a few opinion..

Currently I am using X2Gen (OEM by LIKOM) LCD monitor 19". Only VGA... no DVI port... 12ms response time... and resolution of 1280x1024 @ 75Hz.


If I were to change to Samsung 940BW... which is also 19" (the only difference being it is widescreen) with 4ms response time... is the change noticeable?? I mean... is it worth it to change from 19" to 19" widescreen??

Cause 940BW got DVI port as well.. which I believe is superior in every aspect from VGA port. It is 4ms (in contrast with my current 12ms monitor).. and it is wide...

What do you guys think?? Is it a good choice to take 940BW over my current monitor or just stick with my current one for now... because basically both are 19"... just that one is wide while the other one is normal flat 19" panel.

aha... then the best choice is to get 20" wide...

Hm.. guess no choice then... I'll have to search for 20"... and if fail... I guess I'll go to you sIkuA..

too big lar 22"... afraid I wouldn't be able to fully utilize my gc to play games later on due to increased resolution...



Eh... wait a minute... 20" and 22" are using the same resolution rite?? Is that mean there is no performance hit in-game between 20" and 22"??

Ahha... I have posted several question regarding the offer here in both Widescreen and LCD thread... but no one answered. So I guess it is either 1) No one knows the answer... 2) The LCD is actually a bad choice

Why dun I ask again here..:

Dell LCD Offer

Based on the website... there are two model that gets my attention:

DELL E207WFP 20" Entry Widescreen - RM799

and,

DELL E228WFP 22" Entry Widescreen - RM899


1. Is this both model a good choice. After wandering in the land of Google a few days... I found out both are TN panels. Unfortunately I know nothing of this TN, I-PVS and whatever panel. Anyone can enlighten me?? Is this a good buy??

2. How to buy online without credit card arr??? Can do online transfer through maybank2u arr?? Anyone did it before??

Ahha.. this is definitely the thing I have been wondering too... so 22" isn't as sharp as 20"?? Anyone with 22" LCD wide can clarify this to me??

Hmm

Guys... when will the offer in Dell website ended?? For both 20" and 22"... both are promotional prices right?? When will it end?? Can't seem to find the date on the website

Ah... thank you a lot for the guide on lcd type. I tried to google but most of the result is forums with lots of people arguing between TN and S-IPS

Well.. for now I'll just take the cheapest I can take (you get what you paid for)..

A friend of mine says that online transfer is possible... I think I'll better call them like you suggest and ask them further bout it...

em.. apart from this one:

Is there any other comparison for LCD size??

I want to see and compare the size of 19" normal, 19" wide, 20" wide and 22" wide. Wanna see how big improvement is compared to 19" flat panel (i'm using that now)...

The picture there only have 20.1", 21" and straight away to 23" for wide...

I am thinking of calling them tomorrow morning. But now that you mentioned this I will straight away order it tomorrow and choose payment through bank draft.

Is it?? I only know this stuff now.. so meaning the 228WFP 22" Wide isn't DELL's at first... maybe BenQ or Samsung's but was taken and rebranded DELL. Is it like that?? Can someone clarify it to me??

If using bank draft... they will come and pick-up the bank draft arr?? Someone told me that they themselves (DELL.. not poslaju or GDex or whatever) will come home and send the LCD.. and later pick the bank draft. I forgot where and who told me... but can anyone confirm this again??

Will order tomorrow morning...

if I'm not mistaken... 2007WFP is using S-IPV (or whatever panel that is of a higher quality) but 226BW is using TN Panel.

Does this play the roles in determining the image quality in both panels??

eh... 22" less sharper than 20"... very noticeable arr?? Not good lar if it is like this...

*I already order the 228WFP from DELL just now

considering both monitor (20" and 22") is of a TN-panel... is the difference between them very noticeable.

I can accept the 2007WFP vs 226BW situation since 226BW is of a TN-panel.

What if both are TN-panel?? (asked this question before but the answer I receive.. aren't satisfying )

The promotion LCD in DELL website... 228WFP has increased in price to RM999 now. Lucky me I order it the day before.. and pay only RM899 for it...

I don't have the eta yet... but your is 3 weeks???

OMG... I wonder how long will they process mine.. since I'm paying using cheque and they just sent ABX courier to collect it this evening.

Definitely longer then yours..

Do update us here on your progress though... I'll let you know once I received my eta.


*But the fella who emailed me told me it will only takes around 4 to 8 days after my cheque has been cashed by them.
