hi guys, im planning to get an lcd for my desktop. im currently deciding between the benq e900 and hp w1707... i know the hp's screen surface is glossy, with the brightview technology and stuff... i mean it looks glossy like crystal, and not matte like the old laptop screens.. what about the benq? i think it's matte but im not sure... and does the hp have another layer of plastic above the lcd? i mean, when i press the screen, it wont affect the lcd like how we press laptop screen.. thanks!

aite, thx lot man... that sure a relief

2333sw, I'm coming..!!!

lowyat got demo - near All IT. So purty you can faint just looking at the demos. got expensive video processor in the baby. <>RM1,600

w1707 is glossy .. im using it for my desktop now ...

2333sw ftw btw once u know the way the stand is easy to fix

How about tis? Dell S2409W

it collects dust and fingerprint easily right? is it hard to clean?

what does that picture tell? sorry for noobness

zz ..i using Acer 22ws since last 2 years , the colour still look superb. Its not that sharp but i love it !

i havent took out the plastic so im not sure ... but it should be easy to clean :

I've just ordered Samsung 2033sw. Would love to get 2233sw but budget just would not allow for it. Funny thinsg is I could not find this model from Samsung Malaysia website.

THat's S2409W? if it is, i'll be damned...hahahaha...

Added on February 11, 2009, 2:16 pmit is not hard to clean...
they come with a piece of cloth...in case u wanna wipe the finger print on screen and on the piano black frame
and also the design is much better dust resistant than my old samsung 931BW

If you're using Paint, then the quality will 'habis' all the way...

usually i use paste at Photoshop and save as high-quality jpeg...

looks like S2409W & 2333sw gonna have a close fight...

you'll never regret with either one of them...it's just 24" vs 23", "rm650 vs rm675", "HDMI vs no HDMI"...... (kasi racun sikit)

but 2333sw has a better design than s2409, which is another point that could come into consideration.

ow man... that's lots of racun...

I have to really have a close look at both now...

Ehh y suddenly s2409 so cheap??
i checked on their website yesterday and its selling at rm999?

anyway...i've seen both lcd my my frens company...
but again...i can say that the colour for samsung is still sharper...
perhaps due to the the dynamic contrast thingy...

HDMI or not??if u dun plan to connect ur ps3 and xbox360....that is never an issue...
in fact..u can convert hdmi to dvi...if u really wan to and it will not result in decreased quality..
check back this discussion on page 96~99...

another thing to consider... more of an advise. prior to my purchase, i always thought the bigger the better, and the s2409w was my top choice. but after buying the 2333sw and have it on my table, it was really huge, much bigger than expected. predict a placement of the lcd on ur table as sitting too close to the lcd defeat the purpose of having a huge monitor and having ur eyes darting around when watching movies on close up.

im currently sitting 2 feet between the monitor, and it's still huge.

Some pics I took recently...

Yep, saw that pages... but i think for works purpose, 2333sw will still on top then... and i just noticed few days ago the 16:9 and 16:10 aspect ratio... so, i still prefer to look and work at 16:10.
plus, i don't play console games (don't laugh at me, yeah, i don't play games,hieheheh...) only movies can make me sit whole day in front of my monitor.


hahaha... i guess u could say that... bigger isn't always better...
