would that be any good for gaming? I heard that anything under 16ms response time is considered good for gaming, I want to get an LCD, the monitor I have now is 4 years old, and since I already spent like 550 or so dollars building a new comp, I might as well get a new monitor while Im at it, and while I still have money.

Though I would like to say I financed my comp through selling tons of useless shit (atleast to me), and buming 130 bucks off my parents, so I think I did a damn good job selling all the shit I had, and buming money.

yeah, the response time would be very good for gaming. my friend has an LCD with a 16ms response time and i couldn't see any blurring.
the native resolution is quite good too.

Get 19" or BIGER

towly · 09-09-2005, 03:39 PM

230 is my limit for a monitor, the monitor im one right now is 17" and its all I'll ever need.

anything below 12ms is probably overkill but you want 19 inch for good gaming

towly · 09-11-2005, 01:30 AM

well I already ordered so its kinda late. I just wanted to make sure I wouldnt get any ghosting.

Just don't use the crappy speakers on the monitor. I bet they are around 2watt each. Buy some from Dell or Best Buy. Dell has a 5.1 sourround system, 500watt, $250. Be carefull at best buy. Some of their products are rip offs.

Logitech x-530's are nice 5.1 speakers. You can find them for around $45, but they're $100 at best buy.
