i would recommend the viewsonic one because it has lesser response time and better contrast ratio than dell's.

viewsonic and AOC has 2 X HDMI ports, so i will be able to connect both consoles without changing cable everytime.
does dell worth buying over viewsonic and AOC ?? i mean, any significant difference?

I have the above mentioned AOC monitor, only difference is that I have AOC 2243fwk not e2243fwk which does not have HDMI . Monitor has VESA mount facility but if you are keeping it on a table then the monitor panel shakes with a small jerk. Also it has touch sensitive controls which sometimes are not easy to operate..

My friend recently purchased the DELL one and I really liked it. Touch sensitive controls work like a charm. You can get it locally for about 8k..

Also why not BENQ 2220HDL?

hi skud, could you please explain why AOC over viewsonic?


Go through this thread: *www.thinkdigit.com/forum/service-rma-watch/124959-cheated-viewsonic-resolved-digit.html

Get the Dell, or if any Benq model is available in your budget, they are also recommended.

budget is b/w 7.5-8.5k +/-Rs.200 btw how much BenQ 2220HDL will cost? i will buy from online shops only. like letsbuy.com

is there any 2XHDMI to 1X HDMI adaptor for single HDMI monitors? so i could use both consoles without changing cable everytime?

benQ has 12months warranty as well :(

only dell, viewsonic and iball has 36months warranty

@funskar: that benQ lacks hdmi. It has dvi and vga ports only. I already own a 17" lcd hdcp capable with dvi d and vga. Hdmi is the only reason i am upgrading.

@cynide: thanks for the link. I think i should go for AOC one, it is cheapest @7.9k, has dual hdmi too :D
