Hi there,

Looking for a new monitor, my 17inch is a nice size but I feel I need a bigger monitor, something with a little wow-ness :).

I have a VP171B, which is super fast and perfect for games, DVI, 8ms. NO GHOSTING and very high end for 17inch :).

I have a high end pc- 2gb ram, 7800gtx etc etc so im not worried about low settings in games.

Im interested in the ACER 19W16LS, it looks ok and widescreen rocks :P. But Im worried about the following things-

Quality?- at £180 it looks like they probably skipped some things? I want this monitor to last. I do not have the money to keep buying monitors :(.

Resolution not supported?- I play games a lot, BF2, Live for speed etc etc, will these games support the resolution that the acer gives?

VGA= bad image quality? My current monitor has DVI, will the ACER's VGA mean a slump in image quality?

Anyhelp would be great. Im looking to basically trade my monitor in, I dont want to spend a lot!

Thanks
 
Badass your a life saver. Thanks a lot.

Do these TFT's use the same screens as the acer?

19" Video Seven L19WA Silver/Black TFT, 1440x900, 8 ms, 500:1, 300 cd/m2, Speakers

19" Viewsonic VA1912W Grey TFT, 1440x900, 8 ms, 500:1, 300 cd/m2, Speakers

I'm thinking of buying these over the Acer as they are around the same price (VIDEO SEVEN is £155) and they look like the same spec.

Thanks.
 
Thanks again badass. Could you please close this thread? I want to make another-one asking about user reviews and the bad pionts of the monitor. (Good pionts dont really help me :P )

Thank you.
