I'm a commodities trader in need of an upgrade. I'm planning on buying an additional Dell workstation to reduce the load on my current setup(Dell WS380/2001FP x 2.)
I'd like to buy 2 displays, the bigger the better up to 30", to handle my work. In fast markets the demands on my system/screens should be the equivalent of max gaming without the 3-D I think, and I'm trying to speed things up at each critical point.
My main requirements in order of importance:
1. a)Fastest response to image input -- time between output from PC to image rendered viewable. I need to see the next change in market data asap.
b)Fastest response to my inputs, which is mouse(Razer) rolling & clicking. I need to be able to submit orders asap.
2. Size: Bigger is better, as long as size doesn't materially affect item #1 above. It's easier to have more info on a bigger screen than 8 screens that have a huge footprint and cause me to scan more left/right.
3. Reliability --- speaks for itself.
That's it. Color, outside inputs, movies, etc. aren't part of the equation here....just business. Cost is less a concern as it is a business expense.
I'm finding I need more "open" screen space in front of me than I have with the 2-20s. I could go up as high as 2-30" displays side by side in front of me with the other two displaying less critical info above or to the side.
And one last question: in your experience, are there any suitable (read: fast enough) 40" to 46" displays that I could place farther away from me? I'm assuming they'd run at lower resolution? I'd put less critical charts & price matrices on it, but it would still be updated tick-by-tick.
Thanks for your help.
NEC has some public displays that are around 40" and higher but they are quite expensive.
Some 1080p LCD TVs might suffice.
I recommend 2 Planar PX2611Ws or 2 Dell 3007WFP-HCs. The Planars would feel faster because they have a bigger dot pitch and would respond faster to input. The Dells will show more information per area, and are bigger.

I went to Best Buy the other night as i'm going to be purchasing a flat panel monitor within the next couple of weeks.
I thought I had my heart set on a Samsung, but after comparing some LG's to the Samsungs, I must admit the LG W1952TQ-TF had the best picture of all.
Granted, it is a 19", but I game very little & it's definitely an upgrade from my 75# CRT & the non-widescreen 19" i'm using now.
Anyone know about this particular model?
Thanks.
I don't know about this model, sorry. I highly recommend getting a 22" because they are roughly the same price as many 19"s now.
I see you got a 22" anyway. Good choice.

Hi, xtknight and others.
This forum is very interesting and thanks to xtknight for supplying information regarding this ever confusing product, the lcd screen.:thumbsup: :thumbsup:
I am looking for a high viewing angle 22 to 24 inch lcd monitor for my home theater pc setup (hence high viewing angles). I am not interested in gaming on this pc, so lag is not an issue for me. I wondered what the options were out there for these prerequisites, i.e. VA panels or even higher level screens. Color accuracy is not really an issue as it will simply be for tv/movies.
Cheers, L
The HP LP2475w IPS should be a great choice. If you can't pay that much, consider the cheaper HP LP2465 VA. VAs show a brighter picture at wide angles, but IPS panels reduce color shifting and have better black quality from an angle. I still recommend IPS panels (as long as they are bright enough) over VA panels for TV.
Personally I think color accuracy (well, technically, gamma accuracy) is important for movies. Both of these monitors track closely to gamma and aren't badly adjusted by default. You will be impressed.
Both HPs have scaling options.

Unfortunately, no. I'm an independent entity that just collates information from the web.
So bro when will sites like anandtech & Xbits will review E2200HD? if you can give me some idea like 15 days, 30 days, 50 days, or more than that?
I am not sure, I am not affiliated with AnandTech or X-Bit Labs. You can probably expect a couple reviews of this panel within 3 months.
& when will you can give your view on the monitor?
If I buy it I can review it, but I don't think I will be buying this screen. The L227WTG-PF is the star 22" in my mind and it's unlikely the E2200HD will surpass it. In addition, I already own the L227. Sorry I can't help you further.
