Default LCD Monitors - 10-26-2005, 11:16 AM
Well i think im going to get an 19" LCD to replace my CRT. The CRT is great, except its huge and weighs a ton. Its a 19" so i dont want to go to a smaller screen size on the LCD.

What is the best 19" LCD out there right now, and what should i look for in terms of response time, screen ratio and other things?

I just bought this one:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6824008032

I like it alot but it's only the 2nd LCD I've ever owned so I can't really comment on the wider world of LCD's. It's bright enough, plays games well, no dead or stuck pixels. I'm playing F.E.A.R and Guild Wars currently and I can't detect any ghosting but then I wear glasses so I may not be the best judge of that. It has DVI inputs as well. My 2 cents.

$319.99...that's not bad! Still a bit pricey for me though.

I'm thinking about hooking up the PC to my 50" LCD TV on the weekend for some CoD2 SP goodness. MUHAHAHAHAA!

If I do, I'll take pics. rock:

From looking at the Hyundai reviews, it seems that monitor had alot of problems, according to the reviews. Anyone actually use it before?

Any one had any experience with this one?

Well since it's the most popular LCD it's going to have the most reported problems....

Newegg reviews are useless.

Not sure, Viewsonic is usually top notch though.

I just picked this up last week and I'm glad I did. I'm running it with a 6600GT/DVI with no ghosting whatsoever.

[url:fbbe6]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16824014090[/url:fbbe6]

Can't beat the 8ms response time and the $30.00 rebate.

Read the reviews on newegg for more info.
