Best 26-28" monitor for gaming?

[RedDwarfUK]

Hi,
I have been looking at the Dell 2709, but have read mixed reviews regarding input lag.

So, I am wanting to know which would be the best 26-28" monitor for gaming, preferably for the Xbox 360 using VGA.

These are what I have been looking at:

NEC MultiSync® EA261WM
Iilyama ProLite E2607WS-1
ViewSonic VX2835wm, VX2640w
Samsung??

If you could give me a reason why one of these are the best and point to a few good reviews, I would be grateful.

Has everyone left this forum? Which would be the best place to post this if no one has any comments on this?

yes it seems everyone is deserting us, even im not getting enough input in my thread. O well, at least im here 4u.

One of the best monitors i have ever seen that handle gaming sources via current gen consoles is the Benq FP241VW. Its an LCD 1920 x 1080 6ms response, ultra stylish display that has hdmi vga and dvi inputs. I used it with my x-xbox 360, and it was great. . Its a WUXGA display btw i think.

But if you want to help in my thread please do. Im discusiing the future of monitors and higher resolutions via displayport that'l replace vga and dvi. ;D

Thanks for the reply

Lol, at least someone else posted all be it to tell you off

Oh well, no closer to making a decision.

If anyone has come across a good page for reviews on 26+ monitors, I would appreciate it if they posted it here or PM me.

Cheers

Well, I don't know a great deal about monitors but today from OcUk I bought the Samsung 26" T260. I've been itching to upgrade my monitor for some time, otherwise the X2 I bought would be somewhat redundant. The reviews look very good and I'll post back, if you want, what I thought of it. I don't think I've made a bad decision. Certainly not a hasty one either.

hazro 26wi if you can find one or the new models out shortly should be good but wait for a review.

I can't rate the Hanns-G 27.5" enough, especially for the money... Not as cheap as it was when it came out, but still great bang-per-buck.

Thanks for the replies.

I am worries about the input lag mostly. I currently have a Dell 24" which I am happy with but I know it suffers a little from lag. I would have gone for the 27" version but I have read so many sites that say this is really bad for it.

I'm using a Hanns-G 27.5" monitor and I can't flaw it, especially for the price. Looking at friends monitors, which have a higher money to resolution ratio, and I can't any noticable increase in vibrance from their monitors to mine.
