What can people recommend for a good LCD Monitor (games and DVD watching) that is compatible with an nforce 4 MSI system and 2 x 6600GT MSI cards.

I had some problems with a Hyundai L90D+ that kept giving me "Video Mode not supported" messages and them loosing the display resolution. Defective? Bad cable? Supposed to be Plug and Play trying to run native resolution.

Thanks.
 
buy ACER

at least 16ms
 
Mitsubishi/NEC also make really really nice monitors, they excel at LCD and are ok with CRTs... Viewsonic is also good but they make better CRTs than LCD. M/NEC costs a little more tho...
 
Thanks, I don't game heavily but I don't want ghosting, want DVi-D, and I want to watch DVD's. Would like one that comes with a software profile "driver"
 
Any good brander LCD with a 16ms or faster response time shouldn't have ghosting
 
Thanks Jimmy, I'm looking at this one now:
ViewSonic VP201b LCD Display
 
Hewlett-Packard :)
