24" gaming LCD

[Stinkfinger]

Im just started looking around for a bigger monitor, havent read many reviews yet but was walking through bestbuy and saw this monitor:

1920x1200 6ms high def. lcd. Was wondering if anyone has read about or had any experience with monitor for gaming. Ghosting, bleeding and whatnot.

I currently have a 19" viewsonic vx922... well viewsonic has it cause it took a crap on me and they sure are taking advantage of the 15 business day turnaround deal. No communication from them whatsoever.

Anyhoo, any thoughts would be appreciated.
Cause this Gateway sure does look sweet in the store.

Good thinking. If it was cold here, (when hell freezes over :lol: ), I'd just leave this system on and do F@H or something. Good heating.

OK, got the new 2707 out this morning and plugged my laptop into it and tested it for half an hour. Again, no dead or stuck pixels at all! So this makes 2 for 2 in that department - amazing when you consider there are over 2 million pixels on each display. So far so good. I now have it sitting on my desk with the desktop attached - would stress it out with a dozen hours of NWN but my wife wants me to take her shopping 🙁. She says I buy all this expensive crap and she gets nothing . She's probably right so the stress test will have to wait.

BTW, I tried the old monitor again and it worked fine too - for about 5 minutes . Then same old lines & blotches with no image. Must be some sort of heat issue with the electronics. Too bad as the panel is perfect.

Some tech guy at Dell asked me to airbill it back to them ASAP "time critical" for failure analysis and emailed me the DHL airbill. Apparently they are tracking this carefully. I suspect the Chinese company building these is gonna have some explaining to do...

did you guys know that Samsung makes the LCD's used in Dell monitors? That would explain why they finished dead even in a comparison
