Then what does that make the old 5:4 ?
16:9 is for movie, 5:4 is the old "standard" but i don't know what is 16:10 for honestly, maybe they just wanted to move to widescreen to save money and end up with 16:10, and since 16:9 is the cinema screen ratio, they cut that little vertical height to save more money?
Not really, both are TN panels, so the color is just about the same. 16:9 is great for console gaming, IMHO, since all consoles output at 16:9. As to the pricing, I'd think since these screen are smaller than the 24", the manufacturers could cut cost, same as 5:4 move to 16:10, same screen size, but size 16:10 has less pixels, they save cost.
G2400W, new dell, or the old Acer in Sri Comp, though choice.
G2400W - looks great
New Dell - too wide perhaps? Great for movies and console gaming, but that's that.
Old Acer -
MVA panel for rm999 w/o HDCP, no HDMI
Does the fact that the Dell has 300 cd/m2 matters? since the E248 and the 2408WFP has 400 cd/m2?
On top of that,l im hooking a G2400W to my 360. It has VGA, DVI, and HDMI.
You can hook it up to 3 different devices and can juz toggle between different scree by pressing the button there.
i'm pretty satisfy with result that i had seen.
For value of money go for the G2400W, which is only rm999.
If you have more moeny to spare you can try other option like DELL or HP or even SAMSUNG.
