Nice. I still have a CRT and I just hooked a second to play Supreme Commander with the second monitor option so my wife called me a nerd. :eek:

Had to do a double take on that. I thought you said you love taxes. LOL. For our tax return, we are redoing the kitchen (all new appliances, etc.). If Momma ain't happy, ain't nobody happy! I'm sure there'll be some left for me to get some pc parts.:)


... so my wife called me a nerd. :eek:
My wife learned long ago that only cheers me on, and after a few conversations of dreams of planned pc projects, she tries not to encourage me anymore by calling me a "geek" out of fear of what could happen to the basement.:D

HAHA! My girlfriend calls me a geek/nerd when she sees my dual 22" monitors :D + the 17" But I call her a nerd cuz she goes to school for Physics :P (payback lol)

But its ok. Thats why us "nerds" make a forum and talk about it :D

Back to topic... Nice to see you getting a LCD. They free up SOOOO much room on your desk.


Nice. I still have a CRT and I just hooked a second to play...

2 CRTs????? Your desk didn't collapse yet??? :P

mine doesn't i have a 21" and 17" sitting right here, though i rarely use the 17.

congrats on the new lcd, i was going to get one but since i got this 21" i will leave that until i get some other parts.

i have an acer 22" monitor and love it to death. the only thing i would change would be the backlight bleeding, but thats easy to live with. :)

I really like it.
There is a little bit of back light bleeding but not a big deal.
Everything else is great though.

Samsung makes really good monitors so that one would probably be good.
Normally they are pretty expensive too.

I have this one and it's phenomenal. Check out the reviews. That's what helped me pick it out.

Acer 22" DVI 5ms (http://www.dpbolvw.net/click-2450700-10446076?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.newegg.com%2FProduct %2FProduct.aspx%3FItem%3DN82E16824009102) at NewEgg.com, I think it's like 229$

It is absolutely huge....and crystal clear. I love the crystal surface screen, ridiculously crisp.

what commando said. i own the same thing. ive had mine for about a month and a half, PERFECT for the price. AMAZING for gaming. awesome jump in clarity and size from the 19" crt i had. DEFINITELY get the acer man, you won't regret it.
