ViewSonic VA226w
$274.00
The Pros:No noticeable lag in response. Has reduced light leakage over previous models for deeper blacks.
The Cons:Quality through VGA port is unimpressive, needs DVI connection to display at best performance. Response time of 5ms not up to hardcore video game enthusiast standards. Low contrast ratio tends to make darks seem muddy and discolored, has a hard time creating deep blacks.

need to be sitting directly in front of it - other people in the room looking at it from an angle will see a washed out image

#viewsonic_va226w My wife got this one first, and I kind of liked it, it was hard for me to switch from my old 24 inch tube monitor, probably because it was so heavy to carry down the stairs hehehe. I switched it out and started out with a simple VGA cable, I wasn't too impressed by it to be honest, switched to DVI and ... it was everything I'd hope it to be. This is my first LCD monitor and I gotta say that playing games in Wide Screen adds ... a lot of more feel than playing it in thin screen. I'm a huge gamer and everything I play looks AWESOME on this, only thing i'd change is the response time. A good response time for a gamer's LCD is around 3ms, not five. Although, I have never catched the display 'sogging', 'losing' or being generally slow with the quick frame updates in my games.
