i dont know a whole lot about monitors, but given acer's long history id go with them. |
the Acer AL2016W and the BENQ FP202W have the exact same panel inside
both are average, and nothing special (although both acer and benq do have better panels, its just those in particular are budget ones)
the lg is SIGNIFICANTLY better than both, id prolly go with the lg personally from that list.
although really, personally I'd spend more and get a 8bit panel and probably a 22", they're very good value for money these days.
to the OP, why not 22"? they're not that much more... |

yes, it's ashame there isn't a single game that can use all that shmancy video power yet :P :P
i play my games at 1280x768 or 1360x768 anyways (with AA though) (cos i play them on tv), so faster than what i have would goto waste. |

well ati is absolutely pwning nvidia in vista driver devlopment by miles. and you can play practically all your games and the newest too if you're stupid to be using vista, where as with nvidia, it's very hit and miss and buggy and a little bit slow ehhhh...
atleast nvidia stopped making hairdryers (it's still lol to make fun of the geforce fx) |

| yeah, "stupid" being the operative word. only super-nerds play games on vista currently. im a nerd, but still slow to take on new technology. |

GODDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD u guys are funny as :)
tnx for the help boys. nichol keeps laughing at my 19"flat AOC box monitor and i need to get a LCD (apparently) |
|
|
| pkcRAISTLIN |
| ^^ the only thing LCDs are better for is space. CRTs are still more reliable. hell, my current monitor is 8 years old! only get a new monitor if you have heaps of spare cash. a 19" CRT is still worth playing on! |
