A few weeks ago I received and unboxed the Acer X243W’s. Here is the review. First off, they are much bigger than I anticipated which is definitely a good thing. They have a 3000:1 contrast ratio – very bright and vibrant, DVI and VGA support (no HDMI), max resolution of 1920×1200, and the color and picture is very sharp.

The price isn’t bad either. They are currently selling on Newegg for $299 – that’s less than what I paid.

One thing I dislike about these monitors is that they generate a lot of heat and having two of them doesn’t help much either.  Other than that, I would highly recommend these to anyone looking to purchase a new LCD display.

What monitor do you use?  Leave a comment!
