Hello, any1 got a good suggestion? I alrdy owned 2 samsung 226bw 22''. My TH2G is being shipped and on its way (cant wait =D ) So I am looking for a 3rd monitor.

I can't get a 3rd 226bw as they really don't sell those anymore. I tried all 2nd hand sources as well. Anyone got a good 22" or 24" even to recommend? Thanks.

Please don't go with a mismatched monitor. :X Having 2 of one monitor, and 1 extra oddball will bug you. I promise. ;) I am on my second set of triple and love it. :)

hehe yea I think I know what you mean; mismatched items bug me a hell lot too. Thanks for the amazon link, but I am from Canada and I prefer to not have it shipped. I tried amazon.ca as well as all the other local price bargain/trade/sell sites, but none so far, except for a few but no replies.

O well, I will keep looking. :(

yeah I didnt ment it that way. As the monitors work fine, there wouldnt be no point of selling them. the goal should be to buy the third and no "either" at all :P

oh btw. Its hard to get them as a new model in Germany. Bought the last one from ebay. And the used models are still expensive compared to the price for a new one.

buying a 226BW is quite the hassle though since one has to verify which panel he got ...

As far as I know, I got all different kind of displays. I can tell you that I have no problems at all.

All I see is, that one of the displays needs a little longer to turn on but beside that?

No colour probs, no resolution probs... nothing. The TH2G setup took me few minutes and I run it on 5040x1050 all the time.
