Upgrading Monitor For The First Time.

Hey folks. I currently have a thread in the home built section of the forums. I'm going at it upgrading my hardware and finding all the best things I can for the price. One thing never occurred to me, and that is upgrading my monitor. I have a 4 year old 300lb CRT running in 1024X768. I was told that upgrading all my parts and keeping this monitor is really holding me back.

That being said, I set out to find an LCD monitor. This is one part I'd like to keep somewhat cheap, if at all possible. I came across this. Let me know what you think.

Originally $269. $30 off, and a $40 rebate. So down to $199.99 w/ FREE shipping. Seems like an excellent buy. Now obviously I don't know much about monitor specs, but I was comparing it to some of the other monitors listed and it seemed to stack up just fine against them. Keep in mind that I have an old school CRT, and this would be a huge upgrade. Also, I'm a gamer. So if you see something wrong with the monitor for that aspect let me know.

Thanks folks.
