well all the parts for my new system arrive next week but im stuck on choosing a monitor.
Ive still got my old 19" CRT which maybe I should stick with but thought all new system might aswell look at monitors.
Part of my system is:
ATI X1800 XT 256MB
AMD Athlon Venice 3500+
2GB Kingston 400 DDR 3200
I want to get a good monitor for gaming but also one that best fits with the hardware ive got so as not to go overboard with anything that I wont get the full benifit out of anyway.
I was also thinking of going over to widescreen if thats possible with the hardware I have. Read a lot of good things on the widescreen gaming forums but if its not for my system then id just go with a normal size.
The X1800 XT I bought was more to my budget as it was only £150 but id be looking to upgrade that sometime next year but will do perfect for now so maybe also a monitor for future purposes?
No competitor talk please!
Cheers
