I think I'm going to grab 3 AOC I2269VW, at 21.5 they are a little smaller than I wanted. They fall right in my price range and 2mm bezels, IPS panels, 1920x1080, led back lighting seems perfect. Hope my local BB has 3 of them in stock.http://us.aoc.com/monitor_displays/i2269vw


About those.. they do indeed have 2mm PLASTIC bezel, and then there's ~10mm of black screen before the picture starts http://us.aoc.com/cms/aoc/products_photos/a0bd6605d29234b41c5cf32e0e0a9db4_large.png. Just thought you should know!

yeah it's a very stupid marketing trick, LG has a screen just like that aswell. I almost bought three xD. I ended up getting the Dell Ultrasharp U2312HM and I'm very happy with them!

I ended up going with the AOC monitors anyway. At $120 each(and IPS) I just couldn't pass them up. Coming from monitors with huge bezels, 10mm bezels is still a great upgrade. My only gripe at this point is the power connections seem kind of loose. Looking at them on my desk I don't think 24" ones would have fit.

Borderless! ;) Looks really good - you might want to tidy up your room a bit though ;)

You cant see the 4 monitors, 2 new subs, chase lounge big ass outdoor electrical box(going to be new blu ray case, painted red with a redbox sign on top), wall trim, paint cans, ladder all piled in the middle of the room.
