Uh, i use two different monitor models (see sig) and have never had an issue is bezel compensation... But yes, three matching ones would be nicer. And not so much of a fuss getting the colors to match.

Well it's TN VS IPS. The colors will never match. But having a IPS panels, I can never go back to TN's. (Especially since I'm running 3x1 P)

Ugghhh... I kind of want to go with the Asus now out of spite...

I'm waiting for my paypal verification to go through, so I can order the Dell's at $200 each on Ebay, but I decided to chat with a Dell sales rep from their official site to see if I could get the same deal...

He ended up saying that Dell doesn't even have an Ebay storefront... This sure looks like it to me:
http://stores.ebay.com/Dell

I said if that's not Dell, they might want to get a lawsuit going for impersonation... Lol...

He ended up saying they could discount the monitors to $205 with free shipping... I said ok, then apparently there was some BS where they couldn't discount them because they were already "discounted" to $240 from the normal price...

I said, "What about the U2311H? It's not currently discounted."

He checked on it, and said he could offer it for $270... I said no thanks knowing it has been on sale for $240 recently.

So now I'm wondering if I should just wait on my paypal verification on to get the U2211H's on that Ebay site, or just go with the Asus VH236H's for $160 each each shipped, and get another $40 back in rebates on top of that...

The Asus VH236H's are only on sale for the rest of today, which may only be an hour or two...

Is there a reason you chose the 2211 vs the 2320 or even the 2220?

I'm in the same boat as you.. too pricey to get 2 other 2407W so I'm looking for something in a cheaper range, was thinking 3 x 2320s.

Will it be a big difference going eyefinity with 3x 1920x1080 versus 3x 1920x1200?

Id go with 3 monitors that are the same for multi monitor setups based around using all 3 screens at the same time for the same image.

bezel compensation can be very picky too about the monitors used if they are not the same.

I went 3x Dell U24010 because I wanted the view angle of IPS and the higher quality, but honestly in retrospect it was overkill. You angle the side monitors so the view angle is not so important and the quality I only needed for photoshop & editing. I could have gotten one nice monitor for that and used 3 cheaper monitors for the eyefinity.

No regrets on the purchase though except I had Rev 00 and they had a lot of issues and Dell gave me hell trying to swap them for working monitors. Took forever to match colors and even still my monitors are not perfect (slight pink shift on one, SRGB dithering on all 3)

Never buy a Rev 00 Dell monitor, wait for 2 or 3 revisions to fix the problems they seem to come out with, and if you ever have to get support or exchange I pray you have a better time about it than I did because they were the worst CS in my whole life and I still feel bitter about it even now years later because it was just that bad.

Please go with 3x same monitors. I had different ones. Went to 3 of the same and it was night and day diff.

Snagged 3x 22" Acers for 50$ new :)

$200 for the 22" is a good place to start.

Thanks, I saw that on Bensbargains yesterday and place my order for 3 of them. Also got my refund from their Ebay site back today... I will say if you're going to go with Dell Monitors just wait til they have a deal on their official site, their Ebay Store's a pain with Paypal.
