best 17/19 LCD monitor at a reasonable price? - GoFuckYourself.com

BlackCrayon · 11-02-2006, 05:16 PM

im looking to get one to finally replace the old monitor i have. i look at bestbuy and see HP's are cheap but i am not a fan of their computers, so i don't know if they are any good. something under 300 bucks is preferable.

ThePornPusher · 11-02-2006, 05:29 PM

I finally replaced mine a month or two ago. I went to bestbuy and picked up a 19'' widescreen LG monitor for $200..I liked it so much I went and bought another so I got two of them next to each other works great

wdsguy · 11-02-2006, 05:31 PM

check out ones by viewsonic.

Jace · 11-02-2006, 05:32 PM

what is a reasonable price? they are everyone for under $300, you don't have to look hard

you can go on www.pricewatch.com and find them for under $300 all day long

Quotealex · 11-02-2006, 05:43 PM

I quite satisfyied with my BenQ monitors. I think it's among the least expensive monitors and the quality is fairly good.

Angry · 11-02-2006, 05:45 PM

Check out Acer. I have a 17 inch on a backup and the color and crispness is unlike anything I have ever seen. Looking at about $150 give or take.

DamianJ · 11-02-2006, 06:02 PM

There's a new Dell w/s 20" for 230 USD

webcrawler · 11-02-2006, 06:18 PM

I got an Acer and so far is working great.

shekinah · 11-02-2006, 06:20 PM

Good luck to you buddy! Hope you can get new one asap.

well under 300 bucks is reasonable, i know there are tons under this price but just want to know what brands to look for.

Samsung has the line they market toward gamers, with 2 ms refresh rate. They are certainly easy on the eyes, but you pay a bit more for the added performance.

The price of 19 inch screens are going down..now only if the bigger ones would follow

MyNameIsNobody · 11-03-2006, 07:41 PM

I'm doing great with a samsung syncmaster 19"

born2blog · 11-03-2006, 07:43 PM

Here's a decent 17" for under $100 until Nov 25th at Office Depot

notabook · 11-03-2006, 09:22 PM

I love viewsonic lcd monitors, and I like neovo lcd monitors as well (I just had a F-419 crap out on me though). Neovo LCD's are among the best performance vs. price you can get. Whatever you do... do NOT get hanns-g gah.

fetishblog · 11-03-2006, 09:24 PM

I love my 19" Dell LCD. 1905FP.

I think it got replaced by the 1907FP though.

I've got one as well. So far I'm happy.

Cash · 11-04-2006, 12:41 AM

Cheap 19" LCD monitor

flashfire · 11-04-2006, 12:46 AM

tiger direct has some really good deals now...I got a 19" widescreen for under 200 and it looks as good as any I have seen...they dont have the one I bought anymore but some others at good prices.

BlackCrayon · 11-04-2006, 12:06 PM

thanks guys, i think i'll probably either go for acer or viewsonic. i don't use my pc for gaming, just web and watching video mostly. btw, do lcd monitors get rid of glare from windows/lights? im still using the old crt ones.

shake · 11-04-2006, 12:09 PM

I'm really happy with my samsung.

I think it was an HP in the store that I started to turn on it's stand - and the flex of the case caused something inside to short out and the screen went blank and it made a little smoke... so I didn't buy the HP that's for sure.

rick-e · 11-04-2006, 12:26 PM

I have a 19" samsung widescreen and I love it. You can get one for $275ish now I think

blink0 · 11-04-2006, 01:37 PM

I have 3 19" LG LCDs. tHEY ALL HAVE 1600:1 contrast ratios and 2ms response times, and I got them all for about $300 a piece. Best monitors I ever owned.

BlackCrayon · 11-04-2006, 05:23 PM

wow, this is going to take some getting used to. i've used nothing but 17" monitors with 800x600 display before, now im 1280x1024. the fonts seem so small and the white is blinding.

Sp-Ken · 11-04-2006, 05:31 PM

I'd recommend 19" Samsung or Benq flat panels for around $200.
