LED is more energy efficient. It will last longer than an LCD.
LED generally produces a more richer, vibrant picture.
For a computer monitor I would go with LED if you're planning on gaming with it, or watching movies or photo editing.
edit: we have a 32" LED samsung and it looks just like the LCD's in the same size. I wonder if they share the same similarities that 720/1080 resolution has on 32" and smaller TV's, because of the size there isn't a significant difference at all. I wonder if LCD/LED same sort of concept. That being said, There is a significant difference once you compare a 46" LED to LCD because of teh overall larger picture.
Does that make any sense? lol

I'm going to basically use it to play sc2.
what other things should I look at?
is 5ms response time good enough?
and I don't really get the whole contrast ratio thing..
how can led be in the million to one ratio while lcd is much much lower?
my main concern between led and lcd is not really about the darkness of the black, but rather the fine line quality of the image.
you know when you go close up to some lcd monitors, the picture gets blurry and looks smudged.
would there be a difference if I choose a led monitor?
I'll probably get something between 21" to 23" max.
23" if I go lcd
21"-22" if I go led
due to the price difference.
