    Can't decide, need help again.

    IMO, go with the LG, $30 difference with 2ms. Best if you buy the high end monitor now. If you buy a lower end monitor now, you'd be replacing it sooner because new monitors will come out in the coming years, if you the high end one of now, then at least youre kinda up to date with the technology. ORRRRR, if youre okay with the one you have now, just wait a bit for newer model monitors come out, and just buy them. but if nothing comes out, go with the

    the G2220HD superseded the E2200HD, but AFAIK, they are exactly the same except the the G2220HD's lack of speakers and HDMI port.

    I was trying to buy the E2200HD, but msy doesn't stock them anymore. SO CBF!

    are you that narrow minded..? I already explained which was better, don't try and confuse others, read thread before, both are 2ms G2g, so essentially both are 5ms b2b.

    LG was an average monitor, the new BENQ is alot better, nearly a perfect monitor for its price and range.

    2ms or 5ms...All hype...most laptops still run 8ms, so you can be assured anything sub 8ms will do the job fine.

    Hard to tell without having seen all the monitors myself, look up some reviews maybe?

    My brother has an e2200hd and it's very nice, but for about $30 extra I would recommend the monitor I have, an ASUS VH23H. Significant difference.

    Well the E2200HD has 10000:1 DCR compared to AOC which has 60000:1 and Samsung which has 50000:1? What's up with that? or is that all a gimmick..

    That's dynamic contrast ratios, dynamic contrast is mostly a gimmick yeh.

    Specifications on monitors don't mean as much as they do on other hardware, a monitor with lesser specs can easily look better than one with better specs. That's where reviews come in.
