which one?

[Hazar]

so, I've been thinking about getting a widescreen monitor, even though I haven't really decided if I will yet. But anyways, I've narrowed the choices down to these two:

so which one should I get if I do decide to get one?

I also might want to mention that I already have a 19" normal tft display

they both look pretty good. the viewsonic ( which are very good monitors ) has a 3 year waranty... its kinda hard to say...

They both have a 3yr warranty. I don't know much about the BenQ model. The Viewsonic is a solid screen though.

yeah, but the question is "is it $60 better"

Havn't read many reviews yet but I did notice ZDnet rates the viewsonic 8/10 and the BenQ 5/10. PCmag had similar scores.
2nd review i found

Here are two reviews from the same website.
Viewsonic
BenQ

I'd think the Viewsonic is $60 better...

I'd just like to comment on the generalness of the poll topic :'Which one?'

thanks for the links, that'll prolly bump my decision in favor of the viewsonic.

Well the poll results speak for themselves but I've been using my Viewsonic VX2025wm for a month and it's great, except it's got some backlightning but it's not that annoying as it sounds.
