While you're there consider whether you want to go for a S-IPS/ H-IPS panel (better colour, viewing angle & image quality) VS. a TN panel which lacks colour accuracy / image quality.

The only downside of the S-IPS panels are they are slower than the TN panels, most range from 6-16ms, whereas the TN panels to as low as 2ms.

If you're gaming get a TN based LCD panel, if you're modelling painting and only occasionally game get a IPS panel.

I've got an old 2001 Dell 20" at home with an IPS panel and have a newer 20" Dell at work with TN panel...The differences in image quality and colour are quite significant!

i'll keep a look out for that. cheers jaque. i never knew all this frame rate/refresh stuff was an issue. i dont do any gaming on pc, it will purely be whats best for cgi. so ips it is.

chirone/hh: i wasnt aware either of this 'led' stuff either. yeah, ghosting is def something i want to avoid, although almost everything i do is still image, am becoming more open/curious to the 4th dimension side of things.
