You don't have to type out my full name, it's mostly just for show...you know..a 'defence mechanism' to scare off the likes of sHm0zY...

 

[B.Calhoun]

lol, and its funny cause it confused me at first to many numbers....isuck at math.

any of these monitors better?

ViewSonic® 17 INCHES E70F .23 MM HORIZONTAL SVGA MONITOR

ViewSonic® 17" E70F+SB .21MM Horizontal Dot Pitch SVGA MONITOR

 

[KidRock]

B calhoun you got your comp at www.Ibuypower.com right? lol

 

[The Terminator]

well, they're 2 inches smaller, but viewsonic is a better brand. If eitehr of those is much cheaper, id go with either of em.

 

[B.Calhoun]

nah i got this one at www.cyberpowersystem.com

and those 2 monitors are like 4 dollors MORE expensive. Its it worth to sacfice 2 inches for a better brand?

 

[iamaelephant]

I have a cheap 19 inch moniter and I couldn't be happier. Maybe if you are really anal about extreme image quality then a higher end moniter would suit, but I am more than happy with my cheapo 19".

 

[richpull100]

I bought these 19" monitors by the name of CTX, my friend has a Sony Triniton 19" monitor. I can't tell the difference between the image, but since hes dished out that money for it he says that there is. I couldn't be happier with my $130 19" monitors. Maybe you can go for a 21" CRT made by a brand-x. Also, I would advise going for 1GB of ram considering all of the next-gen games coming out like F.E.A.R. and HL2.

 

[B.Calhoun]

ok thanks thats what i figured. Ill go with the cheaper 19"

 

[Xenome]

get 1 gig of ram..it's needed these days..
