Currently I am running
http://www.lg.com/us/computer-produc...-W2043T-PF.jsp
What I am looking for in a monitor is 23-25", Must be full hd, would prefer a response time below 5ms. If I go to best buy (ug i know) they will give me $50 for my old monitor. Any suggestions? Is the best buy one worth it?

I have an LG W2253V. Best bang for buck at the time. Still loving it.

Yeah I searched the internet for reviews and only the best buy website had one. Which is why I came here. Many knowledgeable posters in this forum and Im looking for opinions on the one I linked. Originally Posted by The Wizards Hat

I have a 24" with that resolution already, was just curious since I haven't seen more than one or two advertised on sites like Best Buy, Tiger, etc in a while. I'm thinking most people are just all about 1080p, so they gave up and forced that one. Originally Posted by Biggiej

Me too. I am looking for another one to go with Dual Monitors. But I think the monitors are so damn good, no one wants to sell it lol. But yeah, I love my 23' Acer. Originally Posted by Defaulty

EDIT: Lol, my monitor has...300 reviews on a Best Buy site. That has to amount to something.
