Hello people of WSGF!

Im finally able to use some money on a tripple monitor setup :D but im having trouble finding a good monitor.
im looking for a good monitor around 400$ i would prefer IPS with a refresh rate of around 8 ms. however it needs a "thin" bezel.
i am willing to do a debezel mod on all the three monitors i just dont know what monitors what be good for that.
Right now im hooked on the Dell U2412m mainly because of the image quality and the awesome stand that comes with it and it should be a bit better than the 23" dell u2312hm.
i saw the great post posted on here with a debezel mod of the dell u2312hmt ( http://www.wsgf.org/node/18530 ) however i found out that the u2412m has a bigger bezel when debezeled?
if any of you know a good monitor for some gaming and photo-editing (nothing professional just a hobby) then please help me out :~


some help would be greatly apreciated :)

The u2412 does have a slightly larger bezel but it is still manageable. The biggest factor between the two is the resolution height of 1080 vs the height of 1200 pixels between the 23" and the 24" monitor.

The things that need to be factored in before making the purchase:
The resolution difference is about 9% more per screen with the 24", that's 27% more screen real-estate in eyefinity.
The price difference between the 23" and 24" is about 69% more per screen.

3 x 23" for $623.70
3 x 24" for $897.00

Another note:
The contrast ratio looks better on the u2412

Here are the reviews (not written by me): 23 vs 24

Hope this helps.
