My old monitor is making scary buzz sounds, so i want to buy a new one, but i don't know what to buy? I currently have AL2216W.
what matters is:
22" or 24", doesn't matter but it should have hd resolution.
Price range: 170€ max.
I barely play so it doesn't need to be _pro gaming display_ , it's enough that it's good. ^_^

Around 180 euro here.
Smaller one is the U2211H
Good enough for gaming, great for movies ,photos, and general use.
Or just be a faggot and get a TN monitor like all the tardos here.
We still need ips panels with 120Hz, that would be great.
Syncmaster F2380 = 8 ms (ROFL) 0,95 ghosting frames http://www.digitalversus.com/samsung-syncmaster-f2380-p357_6954_36.html
- FullHD
- 120 Hz (you'll come buckets if you're used to 60 Hz, believe me)
- 3D (not that big of a deal, but still..)
although i didn't buy this model, i'd say it's the best suggestion for the OP's requirements
- bad colors, because TN panel is just... shit
- no tilt option, and you can't put it higher.
- price is more around 200
+ 120Hz
+ 3D
So overall, i don't think this is the right option. Unless he is die-hard gamer, because than 120Hz > all ofcourse.
I don't get why there is no good IPS panel with 120Hz that would be so awesome.
Good colors and 120Hz, hopefully it will come.
Also, the one u mentioned(Dell U2311H) is definitely NOT for gaming, with a dissapointing responsiveness of 8 ms and 0,7 ghosting frames. Just deal with it, IPS and PVA panels are not smooth enough if you are searching a gaming monitor. http://www.digitalversus.com/dell-u2311h-p357_8953_88.html
-Viewing angles, couldnt care less rly :/ it's not like ure lying on the floor. This isn't an advantage for everyone, most have a viewing angle of 170º which is almost the whole area from each side of the room, so unless u're on a different height, you won't suffer from this issue.
-Bad colors. What? Better say 'worse colors than IPS', but nowadays there are TN monitors with more than decent colors contrast, many of them also can be set through its menu to get better colors.
-IPS aren't 120 Hz cuz they simply aren't for gaming, responsiveness isn't a goal for this kind of panels, but the color quality which is way better than the TN one.
I honestly think u never had a good TN panel nor tested one. A GOOD one. If u ever can test an Acer GD245HQ ( http://www.digitalversus.com/acer-gd245hq-p357_7352_38.html ) or an Alienware OptX AW2310 ( http://www.digitalversus.com/alienware-optx-aw2310-p357_9084_470.html ) just check how different it is.
