Monitor?!

[balake777]

looking to get a new monitor. Is this one ok?

Dell 21" P1130

If i get a crt i want to at least get a 21". If i end up having to spend around $200 for a good crt i'll just get 19" LCD. the ViewSonic VX922.


LCD

Let me know what you think. thanks

You could get a CRT monitor, 21-inch, off Newegg for a cheaper price.

Also, i don't recommend Dell for monitors, only ViewSonic.

should go ahead and grab a 19" viewsonic lcd, i have a lcd and crt side by side, and the lcd looks so much better.

I only found two 21" monitors on newegg and they were between $360 and $580 before shipping. Even the 19" viewsonics were between $220 and $230 for the CRTs. If there's no cheaper alternative for a good crt, then i guess it's time to get an LCD.

Change of subject, can anybody tell the differnce between 8ms and 2ms LCD? I like the look of the the widescreens, but they don't have anything w/ as good of response as the one i was looking at.

i bought an acer 19" widescreen off of newegg. its 8ms response and its fantastic. the only downside to it is that its not dvi. but it was only $220.

I own a Dell P1110 21" monitor. it's great.
resolution of 2048x1536, and the ability to plug 2 computers into it is useful. especially if I'm repairing another PC, I can use both at once, and just switch between the two

I think it's actually made by Sony BTW

the only thing wrong with it is the amount of space it takes up.

What do you think of this monitor?

ViewSonic VA1912wb

after reading the reviews... i don't think it's the right monitor for me. I'll just go w/ the $100 dell crt and hope for the best.

Yes, probably Sony, cause it has a Trinitron tube.
