Both these two have only 5ms response time.

Check Samsung 2032BW :

resolution: 1680 x 1050
contrast ratio: 1000:1
response time : 2ms
*www.samsung.com/in/consumer/detail...ubtype=tftlcdmonitors&model_cd=LS20PEBSFV/XTP

also,
Dell SP2008WFP

20" for around 12k.

1680 x 1050
2000:1 contrast ratio (not dynamic ratio)
2ms response time
1 USB 2.0 upstream port
4 USB 2.0 downstream ports

I think this one also has a in-built webcam

But for trueHD, you need atleast a 24" monitor. You need to pay around 19k for that. Ready for fullHD ??

920NW dun have DVI nd its performance is much lower than older 940BW.
So 198 WFP makes a better choice. But @ 12k, u can even get 1908 from dell. Its ultra sharp model nd is gud one.

Is this monitor for gaming? Cause if it's not, don't go in for monitors that have too low a response time.

I meant don't go for low response times like 2ms. Better to go for 8ms or 12ms if gaming is not your main use for the monitor.
