LCD or CRT?Jiggly_WigglyI have a question. Your case in the sig, it looks nice. Is it good? Like good airflow and stuff.
I have a Samsung SyncMaster 940BW that I picked up from my local Best Buy for about $200 after taxes during a sale last August.thats very true. i was also "iffy" about a widescreen, but i know you'll appreciate me TELLING YOU you will never go back! i hav the 19" chimei widescreen. i think it was like 179 on newegg. 190 or so after shipping.
I really love it. Great monitor. It's widescreen. I know I'll never buy a normal aspect (4:3) monitor again.

[QUOTE="TheLiberal"]1440x900 is pretty standard for ws lcds. you gotta go over 21" to get much higher, and i find it satisfying anyway
Ehh...two DVI ports? The max reso is only 1440*900.

[QUOTE="TheLiberal"]um, 2 vga, 1 dvi. but yeah it looks like your paying an extra 25 for a boosted contrast ratio and the multiple jacks. it looks like it would be worth it.

ya it would definately be a step up from a 15" 4:3 ratio monitor.
lol idk i was thinking the same thing. maybe to transfer the same image to another monitor or projector straight from the monitor. that would be handyblazethe1

It's a pretty standard thing in better monitors. For example to connect both a PC and an xbox360 at the same time.
I think I'm going to get the Hans-G since it has 5ms instead of 8ms which the Chimei has and I don't want any ghosting.lettuceman44Good choice!
I can't decide if I should get widescreen. How would a game that doesn't support it look? If I decide to get a widescreen, I think I'm going to get the $200 Chimei(cause its the same specs except it has a higher contrast ratio), if I don't I'm going to get the Hans-G.lettuceman44get the c himie dude cant freaking wait to get my taxes so I can order it. Tell me how it is when you get it.
