No, no, no, no, NO! The 2408WFP has one of the worst input lags in the industry (60ms+). If you want a decent LCD (ie. a non-TN) with decent input lag as well, check out the BenQ FP241W and the LG L245WP/L246WP. Both are *VA (BenQ = PVA I think, LG = MVA) with a decent ~20ms input lag. Or, if you can afford it, go with an IPS panel (eg. a NEC LCD2490WuXI, Hazro HZ24W).

Of course, if you want a cheap TN with terrible color reproduction, banding, huge color shifting and backlight bleed, be my guest. Otherwise, check out the wise folk at hardforum.com and wisen up on the different types of LCD screens.

Also, don't let the response time marketing craze fool you. What matters primarily is whether your screen is a TN, *VA or IPS.

the price difference between 22" and 24" is just to mutch for only 2" extra imo
▼

2 extra is allot in LCD's only ppl who own 24" screen can really see it, all the chip mofo's that buy 22 use your excuse....

I own 2 2408WFP and it's absolutely amazing...

and btw, 24 isn't that big, my friend just got himself 28 and it's even more amazing :P

Lenovo L220X 22" for non-serious gaming, or gaming and something else. IOLAIR B24W 24" for gaming, has some downsides, but cheap.

Quality over quantity, Lenovo L220X.

i read some review showing some iolair (?) vs a dell, with the victory going to the iolair (better for gaming).
