SCEPTRE X20WG-Naga 20.1" - $219.99 + FREE 3 DAY SHIPPING + $14 for a stupid DVI cable since it doesnt come with one. Making it about $235

Hanns·G HW-223DPB 22" - $299.99 - FREE 3 DAY SHIPPING + PROMO CODE THAT DROPS IT TO $279.99

Which should I go for? I'm really edging towards the Hanns since its bigger and seems better although its pushing my budget but since I'm getting one might as well get one thats worth a shit eh?

I would be very, very careful of a 22'' monitor that costs $300.

I own the Sceptre. Get it. You will NOT be sorry.

I'm completley and utterly pleased with it.

I'd go with the Hanns-G. It's an 8-bit panel versus the Sceptre's 6-bit, which means better image quality, less color banding. And DVI monitors should come with DVI cable fer cryin out loud.

So I guess thats what I'm going with, I find it stupid that it doesnt come with a DVI cable... then again its free 3 day shipping + $10 off with my promo code + $30 mail in rebate.

Now call me complete idiot but I got the right DVI cable didnt I? I see all this shit about DVI-I, DVI-D, Etc and I have no damn clue whats what.

Get the Hanns-G one!

That's an absolute bargain. Decent quality panel, good specs and very nice size. It looks a better monitor than either of the other one you've mentioned and on top of that it's bigger.

Hanns-G absolutely definately. They make very nice LCD stuff at amazing prices, I've got a Hanns-G TV lying around, just a little 27" one, but it's very nice.
