Help me pick a cheap 24" monitor! $300-400

[AngryArtichoke]

Hey guys, I'm looking to get an inexpensive 24" monitor for movies, some games. It will be a secondary monitor and I need some advice.

These are the models I am currently considering:
BenQ G2400W
Westinghouse L2410NM

I am leaning toward the BenQ. digitalversus.com gives shows it testing very well for the price. Let me know if theres anything else I should consider. Anyways, any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Office Max has the Soyo 24" "TOPAZ S" monitor on sale again for $300.

It does NOT have HDMI, though.

You can pick up this same deal in store and save yourself shipping if you like.

Looks like a great deal guys! I think im sold!!!! Unless im missing something, and i probably am, it looks better than the Dell 2047 at half the price?

The BenQ G2400W is great, HDMI and 1:1 Pixel Mapping. Also, switching video sources is super quick.

Yes, that is why I am getting it.

[thideras]

Yes, that is why I am getting it.You don't have it yet? Do you have a link to a review where they say that it does it. I believe you, but I don't want to buy it and find out there is a quirk about it (like it costs 5$ to switch, LOL) ;)

At [H]ard|Forum there is a thread with a link to a different thread at a different site showing 1:1 pixel mapping. As for the easy switching between sources, a Newegg review stated that (A Newegg review also stated 1:1).
