Keep it clean !!
I've just used a 20" Dell 2001FW monitor at work and it seems to be a fantastic piece of kit. I thought i might invest in one but after seeing the price i'm now not sure......
19" TFTs are considerably cheaper and i'm not sure i can justify around £200 + more the Dell when it's only 1" bigger, i could practically buy 2 * 19" good quality TFT screens for the price.
Obviously the Dell can do 1600*1200 resolution which is a good point for me as i'm currently running games in that res and do a bit of work in photoshop. A 19" can only do 1280 * 1024 i belive ? Having said that, how much longer is my P4 3ghz @ 3.45, 1gb ram and 6800GT GFX card going to be able to run games in 1600*1200 mode ? I'm not intending upgrading the PC for another year at the earlist

HELP !!!!
 
Yeah, so would i obviously but would you pay £200 extra for it ? I'm not really a gamer either to be honest (hence the older kit and a lack of willingness to upgrade !! :D)
 
Thanks for the info mate, i hadn't thought about it like that. I've now ordered the 20" Dell...it's only money after all !!! :D
