19" TFT - recommendations
 
Hi Guys...

Im looking to get a 19" TFT to go with my new system, at the moment i have an LG1710B and its been spot on, no dead pixels. and had it for about a year or 2 now..... On this note, i thought about getting another LG... im looking to spend around 350 - 400 and have found this one

http://www.dabs.com/uk/channels/hard...quicklinx=2X0V

It looks nice...

I use my monitor for gaming aswell as every day stuff.... Any other recommendations for this price range? Also... in a few months, i would like to invest in another, and have dual monitors, so not really looking for something that could be obsolete in the next few months (difficult to know, i know, but........)

Looking forward to see what ya gotta say :)

We have a few x-black Vaio's at work, and its a gorgeous screen......

its a tiddly bit over budget.... but..... with a response time of 12ms instead of 25ms......

Still waiting for other recommendations :)

Personally never been a fan of sony TFT screens to many failures although this was a few years (months really) back. I recommend EIZO but these are pricy unless you know an account manager :)

Both Iiyama and LG get good reviews now.

I've heard very good things about Ilyama TFTs.


People here with them...I think Caspar has one for a start.

You might want to try this from aria.

19" Hyundai Imagequest 8ms :shocked: response time: £327.83 inc. vat

Sounds like a good deal to me, puts my 17" TFT and 16ms response to shame really.

And thats not a bad price at all......

Is your 17" a Hyundai Imagequest???? If so.... good quality?

Afraid not my friend, went for the cheaper option, still excellent picture quality for games and films and even more importantly no dead pixels.

You should also know that for an extra £15, Aria will do a pixel check, to make sure you're not getting a duff piece of kit.

Dead pixel check ? - didn't know they offered that.
I've had 4 of those Digimates so far, 2 had no dead pixel and 2 did.
Quite happy with them anyway at that price, but at the price of some of these 19" units, you'ed be really ****ed off with dead pixels.

Have you turned on the 'Clear Text' option in XP to smooth those fonts to make it even better.

Great for gaming but no DVI input and a really poor viewing angle.

2 x 19" TFT's !?

You should start a new thread with "Help me choose which type of caviar to buy", or "help me pick my new sports car" or "Look how much money I've got!" ;) :p:
