im looking for the best LCD around 22" i can get for around $300.00

I owned the Samsung 216BW 21.6" Widescreen Monitor for like 3 days and i got this annoying flicker on the screen so i returned it. I loved it but im afraid another samsung will do the same. Any recommendations?

I just wanna throw something in here.

Currently, all 22" panels use a TN panel.
This is the lowest quality panel used in LCDs.
Most people complain about the screen getting darker and lighter as you move your head.

However, this panel shows the least ghosting so is usually preferred by gamers.
