ive never seen a design like that, looks expensive, what does it have that others dont have?
It says ''16ms( 6ms GTG) / 12ms (MPRT)''That absolutely horrible for gaming. You will notice lots of ghosting, especially because it is so big. Get one that is at least 5ms (not gtg) 
1920x1200... thats good res. however its only 12 ms. id recommend about a max of 8ms for gaming. but for just average things, its great.

I%26#39;d get a dell. It%26#39;s contrast ratio is the same 1000:1 and its the saem res/size. You can still hook up your ps3 to it, but though component instead of hdmi.http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?c=us%26l=en%26s=dhs%26cs=19%26sku=320-4335 
Yeah, even with the high ms rate it has a special thingy though, look in the descriptionsee people like it on newegg:   http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824014133  bump :D

[/QUOTE]if you are referring to the ''(6ms GTG)'' then I%26#39;m sorry, it%26#39;s still not very good. the ''GTG'' means that it is 6ms Gray to Gray, it is not true 6ms response time.That monitor is way too expensive anyway. Get this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824116060

It is still a 12ms monitor. There will be huge amounts of ghosting. 
Looks ugly, looks expensive. There are better 24inch pc monitors that all have the same resolution. Pretty sure you can find one for cheaper too.

So unless you%26#39;ve got a killer rig that is able to output more than 60fps all the time there is no real need for anything faster than 16ms.
