Hey my fellow Bit tech online pals! I have only one question to ask of you fine people today, and that quest is... I am planning to buy a new monitor currently I have an HP w2207h (22" - 1680x1050) I want to upgrade to the BenQ E2400HD (24" - 1920 x 1080), will I be making a good purchase or will I not? Overall the quality and features these two bring which one comes on top (excluding the actual monitor size that's a given). http://www.infonec.com/site/main.php?module=detail&id=437250 http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?lc=en&cc=us&docname=c01182749
The Benq isn't a bad monitor, but there are better ones around. That said, at that price, go for it, it's a worthy upgrade.
Make sure that games you want to actually play on it support 16:9 aspect ratios (and/or make sure you're okay with scaling to non-native resolutions)... - Diosjenin -
What would you guys say that the monitor I have right now is below average, average, good, excellent, HARDCORE!!!!!!!!!!!
22" is about average these days. I would consider also a dell monitor. I have a behomth and love it (3007 WFP-HC) but that's probably way out of your budget.

I have your current monitor back home, and I really, really like it. But of course that comes with a heavy IMO attached... - Diosjenin -
Im between that one and an apple one heheh but since its in the end of the month, ill be checking around then
Using your "rating system" I'd say your HP is "good". I'm not so sure about the BenQ. They've made some pretty great monitors in the past (FP241W anyone?), but also a lot of not so great monitors. Also, I'm personally not so keen on the move to 16:9. All in all I think you can do better.
