Hi guys I have always used your advice before and have been very happy with my purchases, recently I got a Radeon x1800xt which I enjoy very much :-) Now because my dell monitor can only display upto 1024 768 resolution I want to get a monitor that can be worthy of the card, I was thinking Viewsonic VX922 19in LCD Monitor Retail but I am not too sure. I have nothing against CRT monitors and I know they are cheaper but what do you guys think>? Any suggestions would be invaluable to me. My computer is a 3ghz pentium 4 ati radeon x1800xt 1gb ram. Thanks alot guys. Ant. Oh and I was hoping to sped around 100 to 200 pounds, about 250 to 350 dollars.

www.pcpro.co.uk gives it a good review.

Compare with Samsung SyncMaster 205BW in the same price range.

You can see a list of games that support widescreen (with any tweaks, hacks or mods to get them to run that way) on sites like WideScreenGamingForum or TigerDave forum
