    Is it worth the extra money?

    I am going to buy a new monitor in a couple days and I was wondering if it would be worth it to buy:

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824254026&Tpk=24-254-026

    549.99+25.97(shipping)= 575.96

     instead of

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824001278&nm_mc=EMC-IGNEFL072208&cm_mmc=EMC-IGNEFL072208-_-LCDMonitors-_-L3A-_-24001278

    $359.99(free shipping)

    The samsung is the one that I was originally going to buy because of a promo deal where i save an extra 40 dollars

    Well one is a 28" Vs. a 22" one is 10000:1 and the other is 800:1, and one is 5ms vs. 3ms.

    HannsĀ·G 28"     800:1    5ms

    Samsung  22"   10000:1  3ms

    I would go for the Samsung.

     

    Sense you were looking at a Samsung this one is cheaper and better

    With the Hanns you're going to get a large mediocre picture with lackluster colors and some potential for minor ghosting in really fast moving settings  (though 5ms is still a good RT).

    The samsung will be smaller, but still bigger than most people will ever have for a PC, and wll have fantastic looking colors and a near-flawless response time.
