Well it might be time to look into a new monitor. I currently have a Dell basic 23" that does 1680x1050. Its a few years old so it's not LED and it probably ghosts a wee bit I suppose. I would have sent it back if it was bad.

Ideally I am looking for a 1080p 24" monitor with LED back lighting and 120hz. However there seems to only be one on the market right now that I can find. Its a BenQ and I don't really want that one - it doesn't review that well. Alienware has a 23" 1080p 120Hz monitor but its not LED back lit.

Am I missing something? Why is there very few 120Hz LED back lit monitors around? TV's aplenty, but no monitors.. :roll:

nvidia had a list of 120Hz LCD's on their site somewhere, I can't find it right now though

I mentioned on another thread about the monitor I got for xmas. Its a Samsung 22' LED LCD. Full 1080p.

Its retarded in terms of picture quality. Did you check Future shop? Breast guy? err best buy lol

The one I have wasnt on sale and its only 199 or 229. Not shabby. Touch sensitive power and ajustment buttons too. Its really decent.

I can't find anything about a 120hz refresh rate for the Samsung BX2431 but it looks like it might fit your bill and I'm pretty sure mysterybyte can get it in.

Nice find! My 24" BW245 Samsung blew the other night. Had 2 new units in boxes for my future triplehead set up. Installed the second one, dead out of the box. The 3rd one worked, but need 2 x BW245's to get th2go set up. So.... I decided to start fresh. The LED Samsung appears to be a nice unit, getting 3 of those, someday. Was thinking of a 47" LED 120 hz for a monitor, but 2K for 47" vs $900.00 for 3 x 23"= approx 60" viewable. My take is triplehead more immersive than a single 47" LED unit.
Update: Future Shop said one of the monitors is under warranty. So I will only need to buy one, but... hopefully find one with the same footprint. That is 3 x Samsung monitors broken in 2 years. Stuff is made cheap, I say warranty a pre requsite on any expensive electronics.

That Samsung looks pretty decent. Still not 120Hz though

Samsung might come through for me. Hopefully they won't be too expensive.
