I've never owned a LCD before, but from what I've read, the response time is very important when you game on a LCD(ghosting). I've read that you should have around a 12-15 ms refresh time and those do cost alot.

That's one of the ones I was looking at, but I decided to wait till after I get a A64 system built.

Yeah Im thinking about selling my current system to a friend back in florida, hopefully I can get at least 600 for it. Then it will offset the cost of the new system.

Although I have not thoroughly looked into all the different warranties I did notice its similar with viewsonic. I do have 1 single dead pixel but if it werent for the night maps in my delta force game i wouldnt even notice. Its a bright blue dot. Its VERY small. In any case I love the monitor and compared to the 19" CRT (viewsonic) its tiny with 1" less viewable screen
