Games basically

probably not the best option for gaming considering the price and that it's primarily aimed at colour critical work. You'd probably be better with a different model perhaps the NEC 20WGX2 or Samsung SM226BW for instance

The NEC 20WGX2 sounds promising, reading the reviews it sounds like it suffers a bit on the detail picture quality.

Hi there

The NEC GX2 is pretty much unbeatable, so if thats the size your looking at buying there really is no other option.

cant see any mention of this from skimming through the reviews. regardless, i would really question any comments about the NEC 20WGX2's PQ being bad....

so you would 100% recommend it for a gaming monitor for me?

Baddass · 28 Feb 2008 at 10:31

I'd say it's one of the best, if not THE best, gaming monitors in the market right now. And you wont sacrfice any of the performance by getting a TN Film monitor either. It's a popular choice. Here's my review which might help further:
