Monitor dilemma
I've finally saved up enough pennies to replace my aging 17" TFT and I'm looking for a quality replacement.
My requirements:
- Must be able to do full HD
- Prefer it to have an HDMI port
- Good for gaming
- Good black depths
- At least 22" ,but no bigger than 24"
Colour reproduction and viewing angle is not as important, but I don't want it to be terrible.
Budget: Up to £450
At present, my options appear to be:
Dell Ultrasharp U2410: http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/24-De...itor-IPS-panel
http://static.scan.co.uk/Images/Products/1065532-a.jpg
@ £429
OR:
HP LP2475W: http://www.ebuyer.com/product/148972

@ £445
OR:
NEC EA231WMi: http://www.cclonline.com/product-inf...684&tid=frooct
http://www.cclonline.com/resize-imag...bgcolor=ffffff
@ £300 (This has no HDMI though, which is not ideal)
This is TFT central's comparison table, which frankly isn't all the conclusive to me:

OR I wait a bit and get:
Acer GD245HQ: http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/p...UG5HE.004.html
http://images.novatech.co.uk/si-ace-243d.jpg
£300 (not currently in stock anywhere that I can see)
Which is obviously a compromise in picture quality, but is 3D ready (if I ever need it) and better than the above two for gaming.
SO...
Which one would you go for? I'm at a loss. :juggle:
PS - I have a 5870 on order so please disregard the 8800GTS in my system specs as a factor.

Re: Monitor dilemma
Perhaps a better question I could pose you good Hexus people is:
Do any of you own of the above monitors and are they any good for gaming, particularly FPS games?
Much obliged.

Re: Monitor dilemma
Last attempt to bump my thread before I give up....
Surely one of you has one of these monitors? :)
