PostPosted: Tue, 4th Sep 2007 09:31    Post subject: LCD Monitor advice ....
Could you guys tell me, is it a good deal to buy this lcd monitor. I can get it for 200 €. I know that this LCD is not the hi tech one, but for my casual gaming and watching movies, seems like a good deal.

Your thoughts ?

http://uk.lge.com/products/model/detail/widescreen_l204wt.jhtml#

Model : LG L204WT 20'' Wide format LCD monitor




Code:

• Ultra High Contrast Ratio 2000:1
• Lightening Fast Response Time 5ms
• High Brightness 300cd/m2
• Viewing angle 160 / 160
• Resolution 1680 x 1050
• Video Signal Input Connector 15 pin D-sub & DVI 


I have old Samsung 17 " monitor, witch is ... eh well tired. Im not buying anything for more € , so what do you think ?

Thanks in advance.

Have the exact same Smile

Couldnt be happier with it. A big plus is the design, really adds to the room in a way that, well at least my old CRT, certainly didnt.

Well yes and no LOL. I am the sort a guy that is very impulsive. I bought that 19" like almost a year ago. Then bought the 22", saw the 24" and gave the 22" to my son. The 19" is just sitting around in the attic at the mo together with a DELL 19" CRT, still good that Dell but its just a monster that takes up way to much space. Oh and I have an old Sony TFT 19" as well...but thats crap, must be over 2 years or so.

Samsung Syncmaster 226BW all the way baby, you can't ask for a better monitor. I have owned Samsung syncmaster screens since the late 90's, and all have been abso-fucking awesome.

I also think fisk should be unbanned.

You do know you can change the stand? Its quite easy. Check vesa mount standard. Btw they needed to save money on something so the stand got the ax.
