Gaming LCD's

[xAq]

I read the review for the Samsung 915N and the review didn't seem that bad for the World of Warcraft test, which is the main game I play at the moment.

The Samsung 193P didn't look that bad either, anyone know how it runs games like WoW?

Finally what would be your guys opinions on the top gaming LCD?

Thanks,

I just got the Hyundai L90D+ for $350

The LCD kicks a$$. Mine arrived with zero dead pixels or stuck ones. And I have not seen any ghosting at all in the games I've played. Picture quality is fantastic, better then my old CRT. This is probably the best budget LCD for its quality. I am reluctant to say budget cause then people will think the quality is not up to par with the rest, but that is incorrect. This is a fantastic LCD and i highly recommend it.

Dell 2001FP.

I'm with Stokes. That's what I got and so far it is an awesome panel. Very nice all around. Color reproduction of yellow seems to be a tad off, but I will need to calibrate it.

No stuck or dead pixels and no ghosting.

FYI, the Hyundai uses the Samsung panel, so the two monitors are almost identical.

Samsung 730B or 930B

Good quality and inexpensive

heh i guess i should have said a price range. probably around 3-400 dollars

isnt the dell 2001 like 600ish?

so possibilites would be that hyundai, or the samsung 193p or the 915n. Any other good 3-400 dollar low ms 19"ish FP lcds?

Are you guys completely out of the loop?

Viewsonic 4ms xtreme 19" LCD --- $450 @ newegg. /discussion

 

[IamTHEsnake]

Whatever you get, make sure it has a digital input and is at least 12ms or less.

 

[Intelia]

Ya my husband games with his 193 P he says its great

 

[kleinwl]

shud,

Take a look at Tom's the viewsonic is using a b.s. measurement for their 4ms... it is no better than the 8ms VP191b/s.

 

[Admiral Ackbar]

Dell 2405 FPW if you want to go big. Fast pixel response time, great colors, and very bright. It can be had for $850 if you look for the right coupon code.

Good find. However, the darks are significantly better than on the other 8ms monitors. That has always bothered me and is PROBABLY enough to make me spend an extra $50 or so to get the Viewsonic.

theres a thread in video on that viewsonic.

i got the l90d+ too and i think its great. colors are great after proper calibration.

Dell always has deals when the monitors go for around $400

 

[Stokes]

I've heard from several people and I believe in the reviews here at AT said that the dell has slight ghosting problems. Which imo is a big deal when you are a gamer.

Hyundai L90D+ you know you wanna. lol

 

[abaez]

What dell?

My 2001 has absolutely NO ghosting at all. I just bought a 2405 today for $800+tax, can't wait.

Hands down the dell 2001 though. I'm selling my old one for $500 if you want.. only 4 months old.

Aye, I bought my 2005FPW for 410, retails for 749. Great panel.

Seems like I am finding the L90D+ as being more gaming. I haven't really seen a lot of reviews on the Dell compairing them mainly to games. Seems like that monitor is better for apps and video. Am I wrong?

 

[Stokes]

I don't really know about the apps part. I dont know how much different apps would look or do between the two monitors. I assume it is the same basically. As far as video; I am unsure there too, someone else who has watched a movie on the L90D+ will have to fill in here, haven't gotten that far yet in my build.

 

[xAq]

tomshardware reviewed it and was really impressed in terms of responsiveness but there was some things left to be desired in terms of video.

article: http://graphics.tomshardware.com/display/20050215/lcd-01.html

i mean i usually watch all my dvds on my tv anyways. mainly i game, and i doubt apps really have a significant difference.

so far im aiming towards the l90d+

No such thing as a good gaming lcd ....

i can feel the anger..

just messing i would get sumthing like this if i had the money might want to check into 2001fp 2005fpw and 2405fpw. try to get lower 25ms. lower ms times dont mean lower ghosting got to have good panel.

can i ask where you read the review for the samsung 915N with WoW?

I in the market for a LCD 20.1" (looking at the dell 2001FP now) and I currently play WoW now also.

also, what is "ghosting" ?

 

[xAq]

pretty sure it was an anandtech review that had them playing wow

if wasnt totally featured around wow but it did talk about running the game well, with not much bluring.

No way could I or I bet even the author of this post justify spending almost $250 for an LCD where there difference in the two is pratically none. There is no reason to spend so much on a LCD like the LG.
