Hi

I plan on buying a new monitor soon. currently using a 17" lcd (1280x1024) and want to upgrade to sumthing like a 22''-24''(1900x1200) wide screen?

any suggestions?? im on a budget so a cant spend over AU$500

iv noticed many 22'' monitors support 1650x1050 and some go upto 1900x1200

ill be running 2x8800gtx in sli eventually so i wanted an lcd monitor that goes upto 1900x1200

now that what im talking about :mrgreen:


thats a nice monitor :mrgreen:

bit over my budget though :(

I meant $500 (australian dollars) that monitor over here (in Australia) would prob cost like $700-800

but its a nice monitor though might save $$$ for a little longer and get sumtin like that :mrgreen:

I have a dell 24 inch widescreen. I love it. Now I have to buy a widescreen lcd tv, it makes my tv look bad.

I bought the 226BW 3 weeks ago to replace my old Viewsonic!
After a MIR it was under $300(US)
And its one Sweet Monitor!
