120hz or 144hz

[Pirate_Radio]

I have an XL2411T. Only because Samsung discontinued their range of 24" 120/144Hz monitors. (Much cheaper)

::PROVIDED THAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT MONITORS AT THE SAME RES AND PANEL TYPE::
From my experience. If it does 120/144Hz then it's fine. Every dollar you spend extra is for aesthetics, extra buttons, extra modes, ergonomics, adjustability.

Obviously the price will go up for higher res and/or IPS panel (higher latency, better colours and view angle)

I think you're right reaver, specs wise they both look pretty similar. However the XL2430T does look sexier. It also has the gimmicky headset hook (which ill most definitely use) and some settings quick change remote (which i will most definitely not at all use). I would probably have gone the xl2411 if i was paying for the whole thing myself, but im just paying the difference from what the family are willing to put in for it.

I think I paid for packaging...

the box that monitor came in is much bigger than my actual cpu/case!!

(unboxing now)

My guess is 120hz is that the older models or panels wherever 144hz panels ar the newer ones.

So, excuse my complete nubness -

is it just me but I can't seem to find any 120hz monitors from the usual suspects - pc case gear, mwave, umart, MSY,

I can maybe source from Amazon....but I'd have thought these guys would have a few 120hz too...
Gona check JB and the like. .but not gona hold my breath..

Everyone seems to only sell 144hz - little help?

That is great, I'm happy we arrived at a similar resolution, makes me rest easy thinking about my decision.

I'll, tragically, need to hold up till my birthday which is in 5 weeks. so I won't most likely let you know for some time haha.
