Need some advice on an LCD purchase

I am planning on creating a PC for Crysis, im going to start with buying an LCD, keyboard, and speakers. Anywho this is the LCD im looking at right now:

 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824002320

I have read all the reviews on newegg about it and from that it sounds great...a bit pricy but I can deal with that. I have also looked at about every other model on newegg, but im still leary. I was looking into viewsonic cause I know they are a big name wihen talking about LCD and Monitors in general.

 I know the NEC LCD won't have a ghosting problem and from the reviews it sounds as if the picture quality is above alot of its competitors; however, if you are an LCD expert or have any knowledge on LCDs I just want to know if this is a good gaming LCD buy of if there is possibly a better avenue?

 Basically just want some advice. O and im not looking for a monster I think 20 inches is big enough and 1680 x 1050 that should be quite decent for gaming. Anywho I am not a PC newb by any means but I am somewhat new when it comes to LCD technology and what my money to be well spent. 

 Thanks for any help given.

Well, perhaps your right but Im waiting to see official X2900 XTX benchmarks before I buy a vid card thats what Im waiting on before I build my tower.

Thank You all for your advice and help I will take it all into consideration.

Although I do agree with you on the Dell. For around a $100 more, you can get yourself a nice Dell 2407WFP 24" widescreen monitor. 

I've actually just dicovered this insanely awesome Samsung... 

its an LCD under $350 with a 2 ms response time!

 The response time isnt that big of a deal as long its low (8ms or under). But yeah, that monitor looks really good for the price (and it only costs $60 more than my 19")Baselerd

I've learned that its pretty difficult for a human eye to detect the difference in response times (under 7ms)...   but I'll still let my eye do the bottlenecking there!!

hehe...  its 22" its bright, its got thousands of good reviews.  I can't wait, I just got my order confirmation :D

I have a 17" that I've had for a pretty long time, and I'm fine with it. My point is, if you really want that moniter you can keep it for a long time, but also, you don't really need something that big and that expensive. The moniter isn't that important for gaming.SaruKenshin

Actually, it is. It's what you'll be staring at everytime you use the computer, and a bad one will result in a bad gaming experience.
