All 4 are 1366x768, so you don't have to worry about your computer not being about to run games smoothly. All are very similar.. I'd probably pick the Viewpia of those 4.. that and the Hanns-G are the only brands I've even heard of..

you will be very disappointed at the quality of these tv's, you are much better off spending your money on a 22in or so computer specific monitor with a much higher resolution. you want to look for something like 1600x1200 or 1680x1050,

He speaks the truth. The Dell 20"/24" (and the new 22"?) come with multiple inputs for various devices.. DVI/RGB/S-Video/Component/Composite in.. and at 1680x1050 for the 20/22" and 1920x1200 for the 24", the clarity will be far superior to those HDTVs.

I run the component video output of my cable box to the component video input on the Dell 24" monitor. I used to have the cable going to a VCR, and composite video from the VCR to the monitor.. there are plenty of options. True, it doesn't have a tuner built-in, but VCRs and cable boxes are cheap.. and the rest of the monitor more than makes up for it.

I know what your saying guys a monitor would be much better but Im going to be watching alot of tv and playing ps2 on it too so the hdtv is my only real choice at moment as I cant afford or even have the space for both a tv and monitor in my bedroom.

I play alot of pc games including shooters with my logitech ps2 style wireless controler about 8 feet from the screen so Im guessing I wont see that much of a difference between the hdtvs and the monitor at that distance.
