Postman please show me where they use the same stuff as lcd please. Gimme the link.

You said it now back it bud. Then i will concede i am wrong

You actually serious?

Why would it be called LED backlit LCD?

If you seriously need links to show LED backlit LCD is LCD, I will paste later when at PC.
 
Fortunately there were many advances since 2005 to make the "LCD" panels more suitable for the LED back-lighting technology. Things have advanced considerably since then.

From the same sauce :) Selective reading is a peculiar disease!

The variations of LED backlighting offer different benefits. The first commercial full array LED backlit LCD TV was the Sony Qualia 005 introduced in 2004, which used RGB LED arrays to produce a color gamut around twice that of a conventional CCFL LCD television, possible because red, green and blue LEDs have very sharp spectral peaks which, combined with the LCD panel filters, results in significantly less bleed-though to adjacent color channels. In this way the unwanted bleed-through channels do not "whiten" the desired color as much, resulting in a larger gamut. RGB LED technology continues to be used on selected Sony BRAVIA LCD models.
LED backlighting employing so-called "white" LEDs produces a broader spectrum source feeding the individual LCD panel filters that is more similar to CCFL sources, and hence results in a more limited display gamut than RGB LEDs, but at lower cost.
Dynamic 'local dimming' LED TV was first demonstrated by BrightSide Technologies in 2003[9] and later commercially introduced for professional markets such as video post-production [10].
Edge-LED lighting was first introduced by Sony in September 2008 on the 40 inch BRAVIA KLV-40ZX1M (referred to as the ZX1 in Europe). Edge-LED lighting for LCD televisions allows thinner housings; the Sony BRAVIA KLV-40ZX1M is 1 cm thick; others are also extremely thin. The 55" Samsung LED8000 Smart TV has a 0.2" (5mm) bezel.[11]
LED-backlit LCD TVs are claimed to have longer life and better energy efficiency than plasma and CCFL LCD TVs.[12] Unlike CCFL backlights, LEDs use no mercury, an environmental pollutant, in their manufacture. However, other elements such as gallium and arsenic are used in the manufacture of the LED emitters themselves; there is some debate over whether they are a better long-term solution to the problem of TV disposal.
Because LEDs can be switched on and off faster than CCFL displays and can offer a higher light output, it is theoretically possible to offer very high contrast ratios. They can produce deep blacks (LEDs off) and high brightness (LEDs on). However, measurements made from pure black and pure white outputs are complicated by the fact that Edge-LED lighting does not allow these outputs to be reproduced simultaneously on-screen[clarification needed].

Point is they are LCDs, such a simple fact which some do not understand. Read the thread. Besides, we're talking about entry level edge-lit LED LCDs, not full array RGB, local dimming, etc. which is pricey and what your nitpick is mainly about.

Well tried though !
 
Totally off topic :o

Just a word of caution. Some people get nauseous when playing games on big screens so make sure that you are not one of those. It can be fixed by sitting far from the screen but most desks meant for pc's dont allow much distance between the keyboard and the screen.

I have a neat samsung 27" but 10 minutes of Battlefield is a killer. Now its just used for the occasional spreadsheet while I play games on a 22". I know of others that had the same issue.

Good luck with your purchase decision :)

This has more to do with the frequency than the actual size of the screen. Some frequencies can disrupt or mess with your brains frequency causing form the nausea that you describe to "epileptic" fits. A simple way to notice it is to watch a TV through a fan or using a camera to record what is on the screen.

That all said, with LED monitors this is a problem that can be ignored as they do not turn on and off like the old florescent back lights.
 
I got nauseous from playing on a 22" LCD screen, so it isn't just a BIG screen thing...
BUT then again, that was only from playing Quake 3 Promode which is insanely fast paced ;)

If you want to simply play the games to enjoy them, then big screens are nice.
If you're a gamer that goes to LAN events regularly and are serious about your Kills-to-Deaths ratio, then stick to 24" or smaller screens.
I know that I played much better on my 22" Samsung screen (1680x1050) than how I'm playing on my Dell 30" screen (2560x1600), but I'm definitely enjoying the games more on the big screen and AWESOME resolution :D
 
As much as I would like a high res screen... they are too expensive :/ So I'll probably just end up getting a 27" HD screen and calling it a day. Setting up 3 smaller monitors I dont think is going to do what I want, plus I think my desk is too small for that at the moment. Guess I'll need to buy a new house just to satisfy my cud :p
 
Could also consider the LG IPS 23" screens. Easily available and around R2.5k.

27" LCD in SA probably costs like R4k. :/
 
I already have 23" and if I'm buying a new one, I just cant get a same sized one, even if the quality is supposedly better.
