rhino 0 #1 May 20, 2003 Anyone know the best bang for the buck? A good 21 or 22 inch gaming monitor. Over 300mhz, with better than a .25dp. http://secure.newegg.com/app/specification.asp?item=24-014-020 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhillyKev 0 #2 May 20, 2003 Those are some pretty extreme requirements. If you do find anything with those specs, you're talking $3000. Or did you just mean flat screen, not flat panel? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rhino 0 #3 May 20, 2003 Flat screen, CRT... Any ideas? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChasingBlueSky 0 #4 May 20, 2003 Go to this website - get a refurb monitor under the class "A" type. This category comes with a one year warranty and costs about $300 with $50 FedEx Ground. Best deal for a 21" CRT. www.merkortech.com Check back often - they sell a lot of these and they often go out of stock. You will find what you are looking for there._________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....

Gawain 0 #5 May 20, 2003 What about this one? Note...I am not a monitor guru by any stretch... Sounds like money though. So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!

ChasingBlueSky 0 #8 May 20, 2003 I played with one of those at the Sony Store not too long ago....Damn nice monitor. Was able to have three full IE browers open and displaying everything on those pages at full resolution._________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

Cornholio 0 #9 May 20, 2003 Here's a good comparison chart: http://www.centralcomputer.com/ComparisonChart/Monitor32103.pdf also on that site are some good 21" CRTs for under $600.00 I personally like the Iiyama 22" MA201d or the Sony CPD-E540 I've had my Iiyama 21" for almost 3 years now and it still kicks ass.

PhillyKev 0 #10 May 20, 2003 I usually rely on the info and reviews at www.tomshardware.com. Check out this article: Comparison: Seven 21" and 22" CRT Monitors Just read it myself. Looks like the NEC MultiSync Fe1250+ is the closest to what you're looking for in that roundup. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deuce 1 #11 May 20, 2003 I am looking at a Viewsonic ViewPanel VP230mb right now. I endorse it wholeheartedly. Get the digital board too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
