3.? This is more of a question really, What is the Dell E207WFP?

2007WFP :thup:

The E207 is a TN panel. If you are on a budget it is fine for gaming. Otherwise, you know what to do...

[Jacobman]

So if i buy it off the dell site, how long does it take to ship?

It says within 24 hours. You'll have it in 3 days after that.

That's actually a good price for an *-MVA panel. I am surprised. Good find. However, I have seen some posts on them dieing fairly quickly?

Buyer beware I guess? What's the warranty like?

[Jacobman]

I was looking at the Naga but it only has 16.2million colors and i want 16.7, but none the less thats a killer price.

[smokie mcpott]

the gamer has 16.7
its not a bad monitor...i got one when they were on sale for 179.99

[Jacobman]

Yea, im wondering if i would notice a big difference between the gamer and the dell.

[Thund3rball]

Hmmm. They are both PVA. But I know Dell has a proven track record, whereas the Sceptre seems a bit iffy :shrug:

[Jacobman]

The sceptre is PVA as well?

[Jacobman]

The gamer does have alot of good reviews as well, and thats $120 towards a new video card, lol.

[Thund3rball]

Sorry MVA on the Sceptre. My bad... Pretty close to PVA really. But in all honesty I think the Dell is better all around.

Edit: true enough you can use the xtra cash towards a good GPU. IMO I stick with brands/products I know. So I would get the Dell.

[smokie mcpott]

if i could go back to the day i ordered my sceptre, i probably would have gone with the dell..or just bucked up and forked over the dough for the sammy 226bw which i eventually wound up getting anyway

Ya I know. I keep flogging these things like I'm getting some kind of commission. I just just love mine so much I can't help it :D Best LCD I have ever used!

Ive been reading about the response time with the 2007WFP, i like to play UT2004 with instagib, so i am constantly turning 180 degrees and flipping very fast. Will it do that with no ghosting, because the monitor i get will be geared toward UT2007. For now the sceptre is out and i have been taking a hard look at the Samsung 206BW, if you have any comments on that then plz share.

[Viper2004]

I had the Samsung 206bw in my Newegg shopping cart for a while. After reading the numerous reviews about the buzzing noise that people encounter when turning the brightness down, I quickly turned away. There are a substantial amount of people reporting this in the Newegg reviews. Couple that along with the 226bw panel lottery, and Samsung surely lost my business.

I went to best buy tonight and the only version they had was the 19inch, im not gonna lie it was beautiful. But im not sure i wanna play the lotto game and the buzzing noise, time to man up and get the dell. Im sure 2-3 years down the road i wont care that i spent the extra $120 for the dell.

You won't be disappointed. Congrats on the new LCD. Let us know how you like it.
