Well guys,
Since my OLD Samsung SyncMaster 793s CRT is giving me problems with displaying a tinted yellow color over the screen which is really irritating
I have finally planned to buy a new LCD

Since iam low on budget,I have selected the Samsung 2033SW
Any other good LCD within the range of 7-8k
Also wanted to know the difference between samsung 2033SW and 2233SW
Just the size difference ?
Thoughts ...

whats your main requirement
For Gaming
Dell E1909W

For Movies
samsung 2033, since your gfx card cant keep handling games for much longer at 1920 native resolution

Now wht does that mean ? :huh:
Saphire HD4850 DS can't handle/ support games at 1920 native resoln. :wtf:

[saqib_khan]

Naah.. 4850 can handle Full HD. Its just that in some games like Crysis, u have to play in lower settings, otherwise 4850 is fine.

What i meant is, as the resolution keeps going up, the framerate is gonna come down
so, your 4850 though is a good card cant keep up with good framerates with all the AA and AF, high textures etc at this resolution for much longer

games like GTA4 and Crysis will lag at 1920 but will play smoothly at 1440 with your card, unless many of the visual settings are toned down

Else why would people invest their arm is getting the best gfx cards out there

[YashBhatt]

hmmm,i won't be gaming at 1920 resoln.
Around 1440 :)
btw,whts the difference between 2033SW and 2233SW ?
Just 2 inches more ?

then all the more reason to get E1909W
bcoz monitors look their best at native resolution
and reducing resolution to such extent is only going to degraded the visuals

on the other question, am not sure, perhaps others can help

[saqib_khan]

Samsung 2033 >> Resolution: 1600 x 900
Power Consumption: 37 Watts

Samsung 2233 >> Resolution: 1920 x 1080
Power Consumption: 40 Watts

All other technical specs are same and u already know the screen size of both.

[YashBhatt]

I also have a AOC 2036SA in mind
Looks promising
But how is the after sales service provided by AOC

Within my Budget

[mithunfan]

i hav similar concerns...but my biggest concerns is wich monitor wil let me see 700 mb rips with a decent visual experience (less degradation)
2033/2233/1909?

[saqib_khan]

^^ For that thing, go for 2033. And previously also, u told that u don't wanna game in 1920 res. So I think u should go for 2033 :)

[sato1986]

Would recommend not to waver away from the current choice:

Samsung 2033SW (1600x900) : Excellent for Movies, Superb otherwise
Dell E1909W (1440x900) : Excellent for Gaming, Superb otherwise

Both are excellent monitors which superb color reproduction, 5ms response time (typical).
Both have the Best A.S.S. in the country and come with a 3-year warranty.

[YashBhatt]

So should i go for a Samsung 2033SW at Rs 7,350/-
NO to AOC 2036SA ? Its costing me Rs 6,800/- here in mumbai

[mithunfan]

ud rather go for a samsung than an AOC....

[YashBhatt]

Hmmm,wht about the Dynamic Contrast Ration between the 2 monitors
Samsung 2033SW has a DCR of 15,000:1
While AOC has a DCR of 60,000:1
Does that affect your viewing ?

[mithunfan]

afaik...a superior DCR shows effects wen viewing scenes that contain a high percentage of black..scenes that go over sum time. tht too wen ur room is not lit.
this might be a test case type of a situation. hence a DCR figure shouldnt really be influencing ur decision in my opinion.
anyone...plz correct me if im wrong.

[mithun]

Being an AOC user for over an yr now i can say that AOC ASS is top class, but the IQ is not as good as Samsung panels. Stick to the 2033sw.

[foruamit2004]

@OP
you can check samsung 2043, 20" with 50000:1 DCR, probably 100-200 buck more then 2033.
