Moniter FAQ?

Necopotence · 10-02-2006, 03:54 AM

Where can I find and FAQ on Moniters like you can find for Ram, CPU, etc.? I want to have a gaming LCD Moniter but I have not clue as to if 5ms or 8ms is better.

And what would you call the gloss you find on some moniters but not on others? I like the crystal clear look of the ones that have a fine shiny coat and not the dull washed out look I see on some LCDs? So can anyone hook me up with an FAQ?

the lower the ms the better.

Yes, the lower the MS the better, I like anything under 8 for gaming but other people think 8ms is fine. I can see the different a little, and i figure if i byu a monitor im going to have it for a long time, so its best to save up and get a better one.

Basicly the lower the MS the better, and the higher the contrast ratio the better.

Can anyone suggest a really nice LCD 19" widescreen moniter below $200? I'm not well tuned to the terminolgy to determine what is the best for the money spent.

Any help would be great!

Here are a few I thought was pretty good.
