 Monitor?
Hey, i;m looking to upgrade my monitor.
I was just curious of what you guys play with and also if you had any recommendations. When it comes to recommendations keep them in a decent price range (: Monitor < 500.

 Re: Monitor?
We had this discussion before so to save you time look up Double7's post called "New Monitor". Sorry don't know how to make a link to it.

 Re: Monitor?
i hope u know that thread by doubleseven was mostly bullshit, that 28" hanns-g monitor sucked ass. the gateway looked good, but the reviews sucked, it didnt give any monitors that were even remotely worth buying (or availible on the sites they came from). I would suggest a monitor with the highest contrast ratio. the hanns-g monitor has 800:1 which is total crap!! u want one with at least 20,000:1 (1,000,000:1 is the best ive seen so far on a computer monitor). size is not a huge deal if its 21 inches or bigger.

 Re: Monitor?
You should probably shoot for a 120hz if you are getting an LCD. Not sure what the max res on most of those are, but if it at least has a 1900x1080, you should hop on it. HD CS looks F*CKING hot.

 Re: Monitor?
I've always been a ViewSonic fan, they're reliable, crisp and priced well.

 Re: Monitor?
i like viewsonic as well, however i have an acer x203h 21" it look great and plays well but it only handles up 75hz, i want a 120hz, that's what i'd go for.
