Justhavocman Posted November 24, 2014 Posted November 24, 2014 (edited) Hello everyone , i'm in a dilemma , i finally decided to upgrade from my crappy 1080p monitor , the thing is , i found a used U2713HM with 9 more months of warranty for 300 euros OR i can buy a brand new LG 29UM65 for 330 euros , the GPU i'll be using is a 970 ( chich will be bought along with the monitor) .

Justhavocman Posted November 24, 2014 Posted November 24, 2014 I'd get the Dell, that LG has a weird resolution The only thing holding me back is that it's used and i have to pay shipping to bring it all the way across the country , meaning i don't get to inspect it before i buy it.

Fight Game Posted November 24, 2014 Posted November 24, 2014 sounds like you've made your decision then Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justhavocman Posted November 24, 2014 Posted November 24, 2014 sounds like you've made your decision then I guess so , then the correct question would be " is the Dell worth the risk or should i go with the new LG" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braegnok Posted November 24, 2014 Posted November 24, 2014 I would save the $30.00 and buy the used Dell with a 9-month full replacement warranty,.. in my opinion it's a better panel then the LG. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ir_cow Posted November 24, 2014 Posted November 24, 2014 I like dell monitors. I haven't had a issue with 3 I bought so far and it's a been a few years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gremlin Posted November 24, 2014 Posted November 24, 2014 9 months of warranty .. Is it transferable to you? If it is transferable and it gets damaged while shipping, warranty does not cover and you will have to fight the shipping company or the person you buy it from. Dell is a risk you will have to take. LG is a weird resolution because of the 29inch? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanTheGamer11 Posted November 24, 2014 Posted November 24, 2014 (edited) That LG tho, would love me a 21:16(for CAD and stuff tho) Whoops just realised the Dell is the bigger bro of the 24 inch(1200p) we have in college... absolutely love it Edited November 24, 2014 by DanTheGamer11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IVIYTH0S Posted November 24, 2014 Posted November 24, 2014 (edited) I'd still say the Dell... that LG's resolution is worse and weird lol, resolution > 2" improvement. I'd risk it if it were me and it sounds as safe as can be Edited November 24, 2014 by IVIYTH0S Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
