Angry_Games Posted August 27, 2008 Posted August 27, 2008 ViewSonic already 20000:1 and 2ms rubbish descriptor there are no set contrast ratios...every company claims their own. I've seen monitors that only do 2000:1 that look 3x brighter than another that claimed 10000:1 it's like infomercial nonsense, never go by this claim of contrast, and never go by the ms delay as it could be black-to-white or gray-to-gray which doesn't really have much bearing on hi-color (16m+) nor the ability to draw hi-color at 100fps in a 3d accelerated environment etc. I have a couple Viewsonic LCD's and I love them. I have a couple of Samsung LCD's and I love them. I have an Acer 22" LCD on the way that has over 1600 user reviews at Newegg and cost just under $200 and I am going to love it. Best advice = pick a brand name, a size, and a price range, and then compare features (other than claims of contrast and refresh etc). Then look at user reviews with a grain of salt, as well as website reviews, then pick one that you like the best. You won't be disappointed.

damian Posted August 27, 2008 Posted August 27, 2008 Well i have never owned those monitors but i do have a 22" Acer AL2216 monitor and its a great monitor especially for its price. It has a native res. of 1680X1050. Its a bit bright but nothing VGA drivers wont fix. I use it mostly for gaming and personally i like it, great monitor and only $200. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16824009094 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comp Dude2 Posted August 27, 2008 Posted August 27, 2008 I've got a Acer X223W which love, it was pretty cheap but looks great, especially when you turn on ACM (auto contrast adjusting thingie) but i only use that in games, because when veiwing word doc's etc it is a bit too bright, and i'd sacrifice quality to stop my eyes burning lol. All in all, definitely worth the money :thumbs-up: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClayMeow Posted August 27, 2008 Posted August 27, 2008 I have the Samsung 2253BW and love it, plus the frame is nice and sleek. You pay a little more for Samsung, but IMO they've always had the best quality for probably the past five or so years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tirian-64 Posted August 27, 2008 Posted August 27, 2008 Im currently using an Acer AL2216w and LOVE it. i dont have any issues with it and if its too bright for you, nothing some graphics settings cant fix . oddly enough, right next to me i have a Samsung syncmaster 220wm that performs quite well too, but nothing i noticed that would make price on in worth it over the acer (this may be a moot point as it was purchased at bestbuy by a friend) although as stated earlier price for performance is acers long middle name, im probably picking up another soon here Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
