Ive been doing alot of research to get a new high quality LCD monitor. Ive heard that 19" monitors are just 17" monitors with larger pixels And to get 20" instead.
ive chosen two monitors and want to know if either is good for gaming.
Viewsonic VX2025WM http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/searchtools/item-Details.asp?EdpNo=1910938&sku=V18-2052
And
Acer AL2051W
http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1962526&CatId=1410
Are either of those good for gaming and movie watching?
On the Viewsonic, it says 16ms white-black-white (typ) and 8ms gray-to-gray (avg.)
What exactly does that mean? Ive heard this monitor has a bit of ghosting in games.
If these two monitors are that great then any recommendations for me under 350(or so)$, 8ms or less, and a nice ratio (800:1+)
Speaking of ratios, whats a good ratio to have for movies? I currently have a 350:1 and it isnt that great for movies. Ive seen the 19" wide screen viewsonic (500:1) and the quality was like 10 times better. How much better is 800:1 ?
Thanks, Im a bit of an LCD noob
