Dell P2411H or Dell U2311H?

[Inik]

I could also get 2xAcer GD235 because I already have one...but my gpu's won't push 120 fps for sure (SLI 570's) so I guess I won't see the difference by going back to 60hz ?

I think its on sale now on the dell site. But i suggest you spend the extra cash, risk your life a lil' [from the gf] and go for a 2nd 2410 as the IPS panel on those are much better than 2311h. I own the 23" and love it, but now wanting to go for either a 27" or 24" from Dell..i see they are beast!

best monitor I have used

Well it WAS the best I had used till it developed vertical band of purplish
Sent it back and won't try another.

Why didn't you get it replaced through the warranty?

There is enough people with issues with them if you know where to look.

If you got a good one well good for you ..mine worked great for a few days then into the pooper.

Unfortunately for Dell they kept telling me there was nothing wrong with it on the phone(duh okay watever you say) and passsing me from person to person so then I just sent it back.

If 'puter/vid card works good on 5 other monitors in the house with even changing/swapping the dvi-d cable to be sure and still vertical purplish tones then ...its a defective monitor.

I spent over an hour and a half on the phone thats enough for me.
This type of behaviour is not uncommon at Dell either.

Additionally you will not get another new monitor either(unless no recerts in) you get somebody elses returned one "recertified"
I know of several people who have returned them and received recertified ones in their place....not brand new.

Even if you buy a new unopenned u2311h off a previous owner who bought it you have to transfer the Dell warranty properly or there is no warranty.
