I have searched for a while and came up with a list of monitors.
Features I need:
at LEAST resolution of 1280x1024 (I do 3D Modelling)
At least 12ms, preferrably 8ms (I do lots of gaming)
At least 17" screen size
nice contrast and brightness
quality brand name, don't want a crappy cheapo LCD.
Budget is $230 w/o shipping

Here are my picks:
