Edit: I forgot to mention I'm new to this "LCD Gaming" thing, so my experience with LCDs and games is zero.
I recieved a Sceptre X9-G Naga III for my birthday to replace a KDS 17 inch CRT that was so bad, I couldn't make out any details on any sort of dark picture.
I'm running it off the dvi connection, and while I'm playing CS:Source or BF1942 or pretty much any first person shooter, objects in front of a dark background have a shadow behind them. It doesn't matter if it's an enemy soldier, a gun, or a vehicle. If I look quickly left or right, or if the object is moving, it will leave a noticeable shadow behind.
Here are my specs:
Sceptre X9-G Naga III on its DVI connection
BFG Tech Gf4 4600 running the 71.89 drivers.
Athlon XP "T-Bred B" 2600+
1GB PC2700 ram
XP Pro w SP2
If I forgot anything important, let me know and I'll add it.
Now, here's what I want to know:
1) Does anyone else have one of these Sceptre monitors?
2) If you do, does it ghost for you too?
3) Do I have a lemon, or is it just a crappy monitor?
4) Do all 19" LCDs ghost like mad when gaming, or are some actually good?
(After reading reviews, I probably should have bought a 1905FP when they were on sale...)
