One friend of mine decided to replace her CRT display and buy a 15" LCD monitor. I know everything about the disadvantages of LCD monitors against CRT monitors and the fact that it would be better buying a new 16ms display and everything. Despite that, what I would like from you is to suggest which of the FOLLOWING monitors I should buy. Please don't make any other suggestions, that would be useless right now. Here are her choices:
1. Sony SDM-S51
2. Sony SDM-X52
3. Iiyama 3817 (updated specs with 25ms response time)
4. AOC 15" Monitor (I am really not sure which of the two models currently available)
As you can understand, she is not looking to buy the best monitor. She simply needs something cheap for use in Windows and in a few games like The Sims (where no high FPS is required - no DVD playback either). As I have already mentioned, any other suggestions will not be helpful since only those 4 models are available for her to buy. So, if anyone has had any experience with any of these, I would really like to hear their opinion.
Thanks.
