Suggestion for a 24" Monitor

[йЦммєя³¹]

I am going to buy a monitor which will be used mainly for media viewing, gaming and coding
I am opting for a 24" monitor but not sure which one to get 1920x1080 - 16:9 or 1920x1200 - 16:10
I have read that some media in 16:10 monitor might create black lines at the top and bottom which I dont want
I am really confused regarding this and would really appreciate suggestions from actual owners of both types
I am going to buy it after Eid Inshallah

For movies and gaming etc 16:9, it's preety much the industry standard anyways. but if you're using it for documents and design you might prefer 16:10. it's all down to preference really, if you like wider or more vertical.

As for the monitor what's your budget for it? wide options to choose form, do you need an IPS display? what response time, widescreen, LED etc

That is where my confusion lies since I am going to be using it for both.
Budget would be max for a 24" monitor which should not be more than 25K I think
Yeah definitely need to be IPS and 5ms will be preferred

http://globalbrand.com.bd/Computer_H...meless-Monitor IPS display, 5ms response time, 25K price. but it's 1 inch short of what you're looking for. there are better ones for the price but im not sure if it's available here, i'll check again later and see if they are.

Are there really 16:9 media available that much?

I see black bars at the top and bottom on every bluray rip or everything out there.
None of them are true 16:9
Most are like 1920:800 or around that ratio.

[Arka karlos]

i prefer 16:10. unless you watch original 3d or imax edition there will be black bar most of the time in 16:9

[Sybaris Caesar]

I set 16:9 ratio on VLC manually. But looks awkwardly stretched out.

[йЦммєя³¹]

I have been watching movies and series in my 22" 1080p monitor forever and hardly get black bars at the top and bottom
But I do set 16:9 from VLC explicitly and it does not look that odd
But will it look odd for a 1080p media on a 1920x1200 res monitor with 16:10 ratio set from VLC?

[Sybaris Caesar]

Yes. It will. 16:9 is the industry standard.

i never stretch the actual aspect ratio...even on tv i always set the ratio to 4:3 most of the time

good point, and setting 16:9 manually on vlc doesnt look that good honestly.

but you can find actual 16.9 1080p for popular movies. but i admit you have to do searching... coz most popular torrents are not 16.9 they are 16.6

So I think you guys are suggesting a 16:9 (1920x1080) monitor
In that case, will a 22" vs a 24" of that resolution make any difference?

[Sybaris Caesar]

Only difference will be pixel density as per ppi or pixel per inch. A 22" will have higher ppi vs the 24" one. But it's negligible at best.

difference will be very minimal. and yes 16:9. btw if you're 1080p 22inch monitor is working perfectly i don't think it's worth it to spend 25k just to upgrade 2 inches.

That looks awkwardly awkward.

I hate distorting original aspect ratio of videos.

ya i see 'no' difference between 21.5" and 23.5", the later one is little bigger, but not so big... but difference between 27" and 21.5" is easily noticeable, obviously. 27" look lot bigger... and awesome for playing games from a distance like 3-4 meters

[йЦммєя³¹]

My current 22" is busted thus suggestions for the purchase
But I think thanks to you guys I am convinced that I should get a 22" 16:9 monitor
Instead of opening another thread I am going to ask here then which 22" monitor would be best according to current market?

ASUS VX229H and Dell S2240L seem to be the favourites

is the VX229H available in BD? i'd agree if he can find it here then to go with that one. The only one i found on websites here was the ASUS MX236H at global's website, it's 23 inch. posted the link at an earlier post

Both readily available in BD from One Stop Gaming Solution, at IDB.
