BenQ monitors

shaela21 · 02-03-2005, 10:36 PM

New to this forum, and it seems like there is a ton of good info here. Anyway, I am looking at replacing my CRT monitor with a LCD, and have heard conflicting reports on BenQ monitors. The one I was looking at was the FP 937S. I am also looking at the Viewsonic VP912B. Plus there are a slew of others out there and it is almost overwhelming on what to get. Basically, I am looking for a 19 inch monitor with a refresh rate at or below 16 ms. I use the computer for some gaming and word processing and web surfing. Normal stuff, I guess.
Any suggestions on a monitor? Thanks.

1st question do u need a 19" tft? if not as u are just doing normal stuff then i recommend getting a 17".

19" i think are quite expensive and not worth the money if your just using it for games.

Well, I did not know that BenQ was made by LG. Interesting. And I think I may just get a 17" after all. Quite a few bucks cheaper. Thanks.
