Dell or NEC Widescreen LCD? Need some help plz - Gaming Rig

[Jie]

Greetings all,

Building a new SFF system and need some help choosing a good monitor. I'll be using an EVGA 8800 GTS KO. I've narrowed it down to these two:

NEC Display Solutions 20WMGX2 20.1" - $600.00
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16824002320

or

DELL 2007WFP 20.1" - $400.00

If any one else has some recommendations please feel free to let me know. This will be the first time I've gone widescreen.

Thanks for the help!

Check out the Dell e207wfp, they go for around $240. If you're getting seperate speakers and aren't going to plug anything without DVI (game consoles) its a pretty good deal. I use it to play wow in 1680x1050 and it looks great.

I'll have to take a look at that model. I'd like to play Oblivion and Never Winter Nights 2 at 1680x1050 w/ decent settings. I've had a set of Klipsch speakers for some time now and have been recycling them. They still sound amazing!

Any more help would be greatly appreciated!

Anyone else? Need more feedback please!

How about this Samsung for $250.00?

How is it for gaming?

Don't know, don't game! Reviews are everywhere. Stay away from the Inquirer. Also, check out this Vewsonic on sale:
