I used a G2200W recently and it looks like BenQ knows that this dynamic contrast thing is a feature not everyone wants. Default mode its not even used and its easy to disable for the display modes that use it. Then its only a matter to figure out if the backlight properties themselves are as...

Is there any way to predict humming/buzzing behaviour from any TFT? Are some models free from this or does it vary with each unit? Are some brands free from it? Is, less than 100% brightness humming/buzzing, more or less likely with dynamic contrast unit?

People who are looking for budget widescreen MVA panels might take a look at Philips 200WP7ES. It seems popular around my region and Oleg over at Xbitlabs wasnt afraid to recommend it even though he only did review the 4:3 variant. http://www.xbitlabs.com/articl...lcd-guide-f2007_4.html...

Squidmaster: I recently understood that the light spectrum of CCFL backlights might be a cause for eyeproblems etc. Its the same issue you get with office/factory flourescent lighting. Although with the monitor the light is filtered through the crystals. On the other hand you are staring...

I think they do. Although he doesent write anything about pixelsize. It might also be a factor. This article discusses pixel patterns as one offender: http://www.cloanto.com/users/mcb/19960719lcd.html .. although cleartype helps it might not be as good as lower dotpitch. I have also been...

tzero00: Could be some kind of shadowing. I went and saw another LG, the L226WTQ, in the store a while ago and there was definately something up with the text. Tasiin: Sorry to hear that man. I was considering W2252TQ. I'm starting to think that there is some sort of inherent problem with...

Squidmaster: That feature sounds like a VESA problem. Is it the same if you use VGA and DVI? As for your eye-issues I have only sympathy to offer at the moment: http://www.silentpcreview.com/.../viewtopic.php?t=45695 Wooeeh. That sounds alot more logical than reality dictates. :)

Squidmaster: For eyecomfort I usually forget about 'perfect calibration'. I just lower brightness all the way down. And if that is not enough I lower contrast until the monitor is dark enough for my eyes to rest. There's some recent posts in this thread from xtknight that discusses this...

Addendum to adamtron5000: What you can do is experiment with windows settings such as ClearType in WindowsXP: http://www.microsoft.com/typog...rtype/tuner/Step1.aspx You can also increase system font DPI under display settings. This will look very weird in the beginning and some programs might...

Good to know! Although that fact doesent stop them from switching to other AUO panels nor slacking off quality control. AFAIK it happens all the time with popular models of various consumer products. They get good rep, cant meet demand, outsource fabrication, lower QC and incidentally make lots...

Thanks, xtknight. Spot on. Interesting that you think IPS is harsh. Was that a H-IPS you tried? Yes. G2400W is on top of my list right now. Only problem is that it is a little too big and dotpitch smaller than 22" which is my prefered size-choice. There has also been popping up a few...
