    Good 19in LCD

    Any suggestions for a good 19in LCD with DVI and a sub 20ms response rate for under $400 bucks?
    Why is it called tourist season, if we can't shoot at them?

    I believe that the Dell 2001FP is currently on offer with Dell - bit bigger than you want, but hey, that's not a problem is it? Possibly still > than 400 bucks though, but it's 16ms and 1600x1200

      'Good', '19 inch LCD', 'sub 20ms response' for under $400 is an oxymoron.
      Of course I design stuff for LCDs at work, so I'm probably much pickier than normal.
      There are some 19" monitors under 400, but they're generic/no-name brands or crap like low end Acer or Dell units that are D-Sub input only.

          My philosophy...... You get what you pay for...as long as you know what you're buying

          rylan is correct......Viewsonic rules (JMO)......
          Don't know anything about them, but, BENQ makes a display that falls within your specification

            Why such a need for a 19in display?
            17, 18 & 19 inch dispalys are all the same native resolution.

              Samsungs LCD's are traditionally very nice. I've got a 19" Samsung 191T and it's very nice. Of course ... it would be better if I could get DVI working (though I think it's a cable issue ...).

                IMO BENQ makes crap. They're trying to turn their rep around, and they spent a crapload of money at CES... but as far as I'm concerned its just sugar coated crap now.

                  Not in my experience. The 17's are often 1024x768.

                      So who, in your opinion, makes good panels / LCD Monitors now?

                          I think the native res on a 17" is 1280x1024...

                            Samsung 193P might be cheap now. It is quite good.

                            Remember To get one with 3yr warranty and onsite swapout which is what viewsonic and iiyama do.

                              LG in general makes good monitors, especially on their higher end. Same with some of the better Samsung ones. Usually the low end units from any manuracturer use older glass technology or some other way to keep it cheap.
                              EIZO monitors in my opinion or horribly overpriced for what you get. The new LG1980U looks pretty sweet (buttonless OSD control intherface through windows), but I don't think its available in the US yet.
