AFAIK most CRTs are great for gaming, now LCDs are another thing.

LCDs are suppose to get better than crts..... but for now unless you have money to kill get a crt, o and if you have the space

I know a forum where someone is selling a 15inch monitor for around $150, you should try them

150?!?!? WHoa.


I'm using this flat screen 19inch behemoth I got at bestbuy for $175 CAD! =D Yeah. By MAG Innovision, its great for gaming, I love it.

Lower dot pitch is better.

This is the screen I have and it is best for games and graphics

lol a 15 inch for 150!!! The most expensive 19 inch at newegg is only like 209 or 219 or somethin. Anything below a 17" is just too small. And 150 for a USED 15" is just crazy! Are we talking US dollars or a diff currency cuz if its USD then thats just crazy.

There isnt really a market for crt's with less than a .25 diagonal dot pitch. Stay away from the .20 samsung....that said, heres some good ones to check out:

the third ones recommended resolution is 1600x1200 at 77hz, which is pretty sweet. i would go for that one, if you can afford it.
