Title: Need help picking a monitor
Post by: Fatboy_Rob on January 19, 2008, 12:42:15 pm: Ok, since i am so damn envyous of my friend Clint's 22" new monitor and i have to get rid of this monitor as i am renting this PC, and im ordering my new PC tommoroow, i do not want to play on my old Screen.

What i want is to spend under $200 for a 17" - 19" Widescreen at 1440x900 Res, 60-75 Hertz refresh rate.
I do not know much about monitors like i do about PC's, and i was wondering if i could get help from people that know the best quality things for gaming :)
I have some choices, but im not sure about them

17"

19"

19"

Just to name a few, what do you all think? have any better that i should look at?

Post by: Fatboy_Rob on January 19, 2008, 01:26:44 pm: Yea, i like 1440x900, but there are some screens with 20" or 22" that are like 1658xXXXX or somthing, are they good too?
i mean, cause some screens distort the image, and the resolution, cause they are so big
