I was looking at this the other day, went with the 2408WFP instead because it was $450 vs $599 thats a pretty big difference to a guy on a budget and I didnt see anything to really separate them in the few reviews I read.

That is what I am considering at the moment...$450 for the 2408 or shell out $599 for the 2410...

Pros seem to be that the 2410 is a better panel (IPS) and doesn't suffer the input lag that is *apparently* a big issue for gaming. Though I can't see how a human being can react as fast as 20-30ms...but I could be wrong. Wouldn't be the first time. :wink:

it is important for gaming, but its just processing that takes ages on the 2408. the U2410 is meant to be a very low response screen, less than 1 frame apparently.

looks like average is 15ms in game mode and mid 30's for any of the processing modes like sRGB on the U2410.

The 2408 has nearly double in high 50's but I never noticed any lag/delay when I had mine.

It's not about reacting as fast as 20-30ms, it's about adding lag to your reaction, meaning you'll always be 20-30ms slower reacting then the competition no matter what.

Anyway I think I need to buy this monitor.. any hot deals? :D

Not that I know of, maybe black friday will have some deals.

Im willing to bet bing.com cashback will be high for dell at that time.

They had 15% a month ago.

No hot deals at this time. Keep an eye out though, they usually have brief drops in price here and there, sometimes with coupons.

I negotiated $150 off+free shipping on the phone with a Small Business rep.

Great monitor!
