I've narrowed it down to these few choices and I am having a hard time narrowing it down even further. I am not an expert in this field so I've decided to post my problems in hopes of advice and helpful opinions.

Help would be greatly appreciated. I am currently on an LG W1952 Monitor and I love it, i've had it for 5 years and it only has 2 dead pixels. However it is now to the point that it sometimes won't turn on and I have to punch it to get it to turn on. Its not to bad on the eyes as well! Also any recommendations would be nice. I'm looking for a monitor priced right at $300 or under. Also the aesthetics matter to me, it needs to be easy on the eyes. Preferably a glossy smooth black look.


Yes - I would like it to be at least 24" and a display resolution of at least 1920x1080p. Also I've never used an LED or an ILP monitor before so I cannot say if I would prefer them or not. As far as panel type - im not sure about that either.


If you're willing to go $50 over your budget the Crossover 27Q is an excellent monitor. 2560x1440, 27 inch.

Do you have a link for a site that sells it other than Ebay?

Because it's sold in Korea, you can't buy it in the US so you have to order it via Ebay or Amazon. They are brand new so no worries, it's the cheapest and best place to find them.
