Recommend me a good 19" TFT please :)

Hey all, could any of you give me some recommendations for a fast 19" TFT, it will be used for online gaming mainly, so it needs to respond fast without any lag or whatever.
I have been looking at a few different ones but I am unsure of which to go for as I still own a CRT. :confused:

Lower MS the better I guess, as long as it don't get into silly money.
Budget is around 200-250, thanks.

Oh and I'd prefer if it was black to go with the rest of my system hehe, but if it can't be black then I will just have to cope.

Hmm I just found this and it looks very interesting Samsung SM-930BF 19" LCD Monitor - Silver/Black, anyone know much about these?

Edit: There is lots of nice ones actually but I am not really a monitor guy, so I need someone who knows what there talking about with regards to TFTs.

Viewsonic VX912 19" LCD Monitor - Black/Silver (MO-014-VS)
Price: £189.95 (£223.19 Including VAT at 17.5%)

this week only price

I can recommend this monitor from personal experience, dam fast, however i bought the 924 model with super quick response timings ( think its 2nd quickest out there 3ms) in fact about to stick it up on ebay for £260

but anyways, dam fast monitors with great colours

hope this opinion helps

i would give a shout to the samsung 913N - cheap as chips but a top monitor. Gaming is not an issue on this monitor - very crisp clean monitor, 8ms responce time - no ghosting at all. No dead pixels, easy to setup and gives you a few quid to play with and spend on something else.

The lack of DVI input is not an issue the VGA looks superb! You will not regret it i promise you!

Another vote for the samsung 913N. Don't let the lack of DVI fool you!

is the 'Samsung SM-930BF 19"' not much better for only 50 quid half the response time. what you all think of it?

Im thinking the same thing about the 930BF, also the 940BF is on my list...

My mate has one and it is very good indeed. Nice picture too. He is well pleased with it. I have a Viewsonic VX724 3ms 17". Awesome TFT. Well happy with that too.
