    All TN panels, check the viewing angles oh so low 160&#176;

    If you want a 24" cheap with a VA panel then http://www.chilledpc.co.uk/shop/prod...roducts_id=952 there you go same design but with the VA screen rather than the TN all for &#163;200

    Re: >£190 for a 24" monitor?!

    No it has a PVA screen check the viewing angles in the spec sheets 160 for ebuyer 180 from chilled PC, I have the added bonus of having read the chilledPC forum where Tom (proprietor) states they are the PVA panel.

    Are you sure that this model can come with different panels? It could be just that the specs are inaccurate on ebuyer, that wouldn't be the first time that has happened?

    Re: >£190 for a 24" monitor?!

    Hmm I read somwhere about them being available with multiple panels but can not find it now other than the confirmation in the ChilledPC forums that the model in stock there is a VA panel.

    http://www.chilledpc.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=7336

    On the Yuraku website the veiwing angles are 160&#176; as well http://www.yuraku.com.sg/proddetails...id=98&catid=28 the is no VA based screen with viewing angles this low.

    I think it might be worth asking ebuyer if its a PVA panel...

    Webby is quite right - the Yarakus were shipping with mostly PVA panels but now it is a panel lottery in the channel and you must check (if the retailer even knows).
    If chilledPC have the PVA panels then if you want this model go get it from them!
    Yaraku were class leading budget 24" screens 6 months ago but things have really hotted up now with several manaufacturers launching good TN panel screens at or below £200.
    Look to buy soon because exchange rates have led to 10% plus increases in the channel - that increase will not be absorbed and will get passed on to you and me (special offers excepted)
