My CRT monitor is dying quickly and I need a new screen. I think a good size lcd is the way forward.
Any really good brands that stand out and have good colour definition and refresh? Needs to be able to do graphic artworking as well as games :y:

I've got an LG m1917TM which is a 19"... the contrast and brightness are terrific and from what i can see the colour reproduction is pretty accurate! great monitor compared to my laptop and my secondary monitor.

Is much the same but cheaper! Very good mates got one the colour blows you away! Look for high contrast and low refresh rate

any good brand name will do.....


most are the same, if you do gaming you needs 2ms response and a minimum of 1280 * 1024 resolution but any 2ms monitor should be 1600 +....
