Has anyone seen this monitor? I saw it at CC the other day, and side by side to the 226, they are identical. You would never miss the .4.

Does it perform the same as the 226?

and while I am at it, how can you tell if you get the good panel with the 226?

I just bought one the reviews at newegg gush all over it..its rocking me out at 1680x1050 right now...huge and sharp with vivid color..

The 226 i believe has a higher contrast ratio but other than that they are the same, glad you like yours elvis. I know i dont regret getting the 22 and am loving every minute or it.

thats dynamic contrast not real contrast.

but it does look like a better monitor

---------------- 216bw ----------------- 226BW
viewing angle -- 170* / 160* h/v -------- 160* / 160*
brightness ----- 300mcd ---------------- 300mcd
DC ------------ 3000:1 ----------------- 3000:1
Regular contrast - 1000:1 --------------- 700:1
Responce time - 5ms -------------------- 2ms

And res is the same... if i had a choice id get the 216bw... looks like a better monitor... even thought the reponcetime is more.. i highly doubt the 226bw has a 2ms responce time.
