suggest a 27"/24" monitor?

[tgpraveen]

guys for my new pc i was thinking of a 24" monitor but then i saw 27" imac since then i am thinking of going for a 27" monitor.
though price is a issue. suggest a good quality 27" monitor. if it can come with like 14-15k then i would be intrested else i would have to go for 24" only.

btw people how is the experience of surfing net or watching 700mb divx/xvid movies on 24"/27" monitors?
is 27" too much i mean will there be like pixelation on 24"/27"

till now i have mostly used 17" and lower display sizes so dont know much.

27" won't come under Rs.15K.
Get Dell S2409W at around Rs.12.8K which is a Full HD 24" monitor. Watching 700MB rips will surely pixelate on such a big monitor but if you view from a distance of around 10 feets or higher it doesn't looks that bad.

well then what is min cost for a somewhat decent 27" monitor.

 

[ankushkool]

it will serve dual purpose... so maybe it fits ur budget, just a suggestion

well tvs will be costlier.
and i want a monitor only so.. not much point in paying more and also tv have settings adjusted for tv viewing though some tvs have pc mode also these days.

first point if ur gonna have a 27 nch monitor its gonna be hillarious to sit in front of it and work from a close distance ...sometimes 24 inchers are unbearable ....but 27 are huge .....how far are u gonna sit from the monitor

2 point currently 22 inchers are pure value for money but today itself i got a dell 2410b at 12,300 from sp road bangalore , if i had gone for a 22 incher id have to pay just about 9 grand ...so imagine the same for a 27 inch monitor

3 point how many options will uhave for a 27 inch monitor , for a 24 incher i had to choose from 5 , but for a 22 incher u have the option of choosing from 15 different models , apply the same logic for a 27 incher

4 price --- which is the only governing factor so come to a descision about the screen size ACCORDING TO UR REQUIREMENTS AND OPTIONS ,

all the best

I am also in the market for a 24" monitor. Money is a limiting factor here also. I was thinking of BenQ G2420HD

I never knew I could get a Dell monitor under INR13K. But Price India doesn't have anything in that range (It doesn't have those models). Can anyone confirm?

@chiroo : Which shop in SP Road?
