Yes it is, it has been by far the best monitor I have purchased. I recommend it for anything!

Although it could be used for some games a monitor with a HDMI connector would work much better, unfortunately this particular monitor comes only with a VGA connector. The video adapter on your computer will determine the visual quality for gaming. I hope this helps!

Yes it is. A person who knows alot about computers/monitors told me to get it, as I don't know much. He said it was a great monitor. It's actually better than what he said. Wish I bought this monitor a long time ago. Well worth the price and no nonsense, e.g. installing programs, drivers etc. Just plug it in and go.

Possibly in generic VGA mode, and don't expect gaming to work well. Finding drivers for something this old will be a challenge. I'd spend a few extra dollars and get something closer to current technology to ensure drivers are available.

I would go with what Dell specs specify. Just bought this so in a week or so ill be sure to confirm this for you

Sorry - I do not know - are you using a CRT or Plasma? I would think LED / LCD would be relatively fine at close proximity. - good luck!

I've had this monitor for a few months now, and although I do play more resource intensive games with it, I've had no problems. If you are using a DVI-D to HDMI converter, you might be overloading the monitor itself and it might burn out. Try using just a DVI-D cable to connect the monitor and computer.

I couldn't say about the dell. I'm using it on a 42 inch 1080P TV as a monitor. I'm running Windows 7 with a settinng of 1920 x 1080. That is the highest setting allowed either by the device or windows that I see. Haven't had a problem yet

Yeah, it's great. It's not 4k or 120Hz or something, but I have three of these doing eyefinity, and everything looks beautiful. 10/10 would recommend for gamers

Dell has a very nice 30" IPS monitor. Very high-end. MSRP $1499. There are frequent twenty-or-so percent off coupon codes, though. It's 2560x1600 (16:10)

Check the service tag on Dell's site and it should give you a list of hardware, or open the half of the laptop that contains the screen and look at the back of it. Regardless of whether its CCFL or LED, just go with LED and get the right video cable for the motherboard. Going with LED will cost you about 1/3 the price. CCFL is not mass produced anymore.

This is good computer for light computing. Facebook games will probably be fine. I have found this is the best value for a good computer.

More than adequate for myself. I don't recommend it as a gaming unit, but for online searches and study it has been just fine. I will add, that this unit has to be cooled by external methods because it runs on the warm side. I would also purchase an additional battery as a back up, Dell batteries are under-acheaver to say the very least.

This is a bona fide 23" monitor. I like the brightness and sharpness very much, it works well for me for watching movies while lounging on my bed, when connected to my Asus UL30A laptop via the included VGA cable. The HDMI setup has been cumbersome and I may scrap it altogether. Sound via the UL30A' s built in speakers is good/loud enough, that it may not be worthwhile to waste a 1/2 hour figuring it out. Anyway, I got the 15' cable for ~6 bucks, so no big deal.

I'm also interested since my monitor will be above eyesight. I wouldn't want the resolution to look darker or wither.

The monitor has multiple picture settings, including "standard" for everyday use (browsing the internet, email, etc.) and three different color modes for gaming, so it should work for what you have in mind.

I have a dell xps and the monitor is excellent. Great quality. I use my mouse pad right under the control panel so I often bump the buttons. I wish the buttons were on the side and not the bottom on the right.

i am displaying my Dell E6520 on dual 24" monitors connected via std VGA cables coming off the e/port. can't say how your configuration will work but mine is flawless and the extended desktop improves productivity greatly. note: only one monitor will have the start button and taskbar unless you install a utility like multimon or similar.
