This is one of the best prices for a 19" LCD Monitor!

Use $15 off $200 coupon to bring down the price.

OP: You may want to put (AR) in the title.

 

[GAZZA]

And you get DVI also with it !
Warranty is very good with it also !

 

[nikkai]

Yeah, but question is, this thing any good? Personal reviews anyone?

Nice price though

 

[Johnbear007]

I don't know anything about this one, but I have an old princeton CRT and I love it.

CNET review was generally bad (poor quality display), but the user reviews go against the editors review (and clearly state that the editor is wrong). Received a 6.4 out of 10 CNET...but 92% up and 8% down from 13 user reviews.

Tempted to jump in....$302.xx after rebates, F@tcash, coupon and credit card 1% back.....tick...tock...tick...tock....sitting in cart.....ARGH!!!

i hate visiting hot deals, and seeing stuff that I dont need, but want to grab anyway.

700:1 contrast ratio. The only kinda negative thing is the 25ms response time but I wonder if the dvi would offset this for gaming. I think this is an overall great deal though...I should buy this.

 

[Lemanz]

I am using one of these right now and it is pretty good Costsco has these in stock always for about $379 I believe.

rated very high.

 

[gotensan01]

So I'm guessin this deal is now dead? It says the monitor is no longer manufactured. Also, it can't be added to the cart...so I'm pretty sure this is dead.

 

[sMiLeYz]

eeeeeehhh 25ms really sucks, Id suggest waiting for at least a 16ms deal. Ya know they're right around the corner .

 

[GetSome681]

I love all these people that come into every LCD thread and say "omg 25ms sux!" These people have no idea that response time isn't the sole factor as to whether or not a display will ghost or not. There are plenty of 25ms panels out there that ghost less than a lot of the 16ms panels. I'm not saying that's the case with this particular LCD, just stating something to try and get rid of all the people in here shooting off their mouthes spreading wrong information.

:thumbsup:

This isn't just the case with LCDs. People assume that what they hear is true for 100% of the cases.

Newegg shows in stock for $449, free shipping, $100 rebate

http://www.newegg.com/app/View...=24-008-011&depa=0

 

[Johnbear007]

Seems like an awsome deal from newegg.

I have a couple of questions

1. How does this monitor perform with movies and games. Gaming is my MAIN use for my PC and I won't be able to handle ghosting.

2. What is the deal with native resolution? Can they run at different resolutions, and if so how does this affect them?

439 - 100 rebate = 339.

Currently on the 1800fp.
Really want a 19" or a 20" ( 1901/5 FP or a 2001fp ) but budget is tight

Is buy.com still doing the 10% off for new customers thing, or was that for a limited time? If that coupon's still floating around you could possibly get this monitor for $289 shipped after the GreatFun rebate, or $319.99 after the $15 off $200, and the $25 greatfun MIR.

it's listed at 449 at buy.com

 

[Inappropriate4AT]

And they ended the greatfun promotion early, it was supposed to last throughout 2005, figures. Looks like the best you can do now is $345, from Buy.com ne ways.

Can't answer #1 as it's dependent on the monitor

#2: You can set the resolution to a different resolution via video card, but in actuallity, the image is scaled back to the settings of the monitor (1280 x 1024 in this case). This almost always results in blurred images. If the running resolution is a multiple of the native resolution, this scaling usually results in less blurring (i.e. running 800 x 600 on a 1600 x 1200 monitor (scaled 2X on both the horizontal and vertical)) because the multiple is a whole number.

or you can set it to a resolution w/o scaling, it won't be blurry anymore but you'll have to live with the black border.

Glad I got in when the price was low, should be receiving mine any day now....
