Circuit Zone have some decent 22" Samsung panels. Prepare to spend upwards of $3000 though.

Nah man Crixx, LCD's have come a lonnnng ways since a couple years ago. I currently use the cheapest 22" LCD on the market and there's absolutely nothing a CRT can do that it cant. No ghosting, excellent colour. I'd say a LCD wtfpwns CRT, if not for any other reason, their meagre power consumption, heat and footprint, no to mention large viewing area.

dito, and when you've been using an LCD for a long time, and you look at a CRT monitor, the flicker is more visible!!

like i said

i could pick up my crt monitor and hit dani boy in the head with my crt
and it would probably still work

For real. Not to mention the physical monstrosity that is CRT and the annoyingness of mere standard ratio. Widescreen FTW!!!

Even I will make the switch to a 22" wide LCd from my 19" 'normal' CRT by early next year.

Will get similar to what Daniboy and unknown have...

do your reviews, Rage... at least google 'gaming lcd monitor'

rassmatic · « **Reply #9 on:** October 02, 2007, 04:06:03 PM »

i did google 'gaming lcds'. thats why i said i wanted one like the Dell UltraSharp 2405FPW. but the thing is that i haven't seen a monitor like that down here in T&T. think i'll check circuitzone and see what they got. anymore suggestions?

Spazosaurus · « **Reply #10 on:** October 05, 2007, 12:16:06 AM »

I don't think Circuit Zone has anything bigger than the 22", but it doesnt hurt to check personally. Wizz might also have something, but prepare to pay through many orifices for it though.

Once you talking 'gaming-grade' LCD, you will have to order it. No two ways about that. You just might save as much as a grand.

Spazosaurus · « **Reply #12 on:** October 05, 2007, 08:23:12 AM »

^^Affirmative. CZ sells their Samsung panels for $3,500. To bring in one of them yourself, even if your part encounters a particularly vindictive customer officer and your shipping cost is higher than normal, you'll still save more than $1000 on your purchase.

rassmatic · « **Reply #13 on:** October 05, 2007, 03:14:29 PM »

really!?! dang, i thought seein as a monitor is so large it would cost more to bring it in. Circuitzone sellin a 22" Samsung for $4100!!! where dem expect me to get all dat money!!!

Spazosaurus · « **Reply #14 on:** October 05, 2007, 03:23:36 PM »

Its a nice panel, and im sure thats the one with the adjustable stand. But still, that's way more than what u can get it for outside.

rassmatic · « **Reply #15 on:** October 05, 2007, 03:40:55 PM »

yeh, its a decent monitor. this is it on newegg: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824001096

but for $4100TT!!??!! dey go keep it!!!

phoenix31tt · « **Reply #16 on:** October 06, 2007, 09:47:58 AM »

i know lcd's good for gaming... however i doh know about 22+ inches...

my bro has the 24" dell and i still wouldnt get it if i had the money

i got a HP (yes hp)... 19 inch 4:3 and it running sweet and games good too... and yes i into fps' so no ghostin etc...

Spazosaurus · « **Reply #17 on:** October 06, 2007, 11:21:49 AM »

Wouldnt buy a 24" even if you had the money? What's wrong with the Dell? Well apart from it being a Dell. Ghosting? bad colours? backlight bleed?

Prowl · « **Reply #18 on:** November 12, 2007, 12:36:04 AM »

Samsung 215tw FTW!

BTW dell makes some very good monitors, among the best in class.

Notnice · « **Reply #19 on:** November 12, 2007, 12:48:43 AM »
