    24" Dell 2407WFP any good?

    In case some of you have seen loads of post from me, it's becuase it's upgrade time.

    Has anyone got this screen or what do you think?

    The reviews seem to be good, but you cant beat the end users thoughts.

    thanks all

    I have a Dell 2405FPW and its the single best investment I've ever made

    I would imagine this will be just as awesome

    Plus Dell will give you a refund if your not pleased

    Yea, the new 2407 is 16ms, and only has DVI-D, though it is HDCP compliant...

    I have the 2405.
    Great monitor for desktop / photoshop / max ect. In fact, the best i have had. But for gaming, its crap.
    Slow games like Generals are fine on it. CS isnt too bad, but UT2004 is pretty much unplayable

    Then again, my eyes are *very* sensitive.

    Well i play Flight Simulator so that's probably about as slow as they get! LOL

    I do play CSS, but at the moment i'm on a viewsonic 19" with 25ms. So this would be an upgrade in terms of the ms.

    I dont seem to find any major problems with 25ms.
