I need to find new monitors to replace my old TN based viewsonic vx2262wm monitors. My old ones work perfectly but I want better quality, low input lag is important.

Some contenders:

Dell 2209WA - Looks good, low input lag BUT this monitor has really stupid scaling options. It has 2: wide and 4:3 and if you use 4:3 while displaying 16:10 it will be strecthed to 4:3. No go.

LG has similar monitor to Dell 2209WA, I think it was W2220P but it has same OSD scaling options. No go.

Fujitsu P22W-5 - Looks good, low input lag, has better than scaling options than Dell BUT when using lower than native resolutions, text is messed up, unreadable. No go.


Eizo has some good quality panels but most of them are reported with Vertical frequency [Hz]: 55 - 76 (digital: 59 - 61 Hz) so they propably wont work in 57hz?

Just get the Dell and use your video drivers to attain aspect ratio behaviour that you want.

Heres the thing, gpu scaling doesnt work with my TH2Go. I posted about it in another topic but got no replies so far. Otherwise I would have bought the Dells.

I'll see if things change when I upgrade to W7 soon.
