Best Monitors

OK. Another question. I'm looking for a large LCD monitor suitable for game playing (of course) and graphics.

What's the best these days? Looks like Sony is out of the non-video related monitor business.

The best monitors are the Viewsonic Monitors.. they have been #1 for about 4 years now.

For gaming and graphics.. look for a 2ms refresh.. for video quality, you may want to go with a 10,000:1 contrast ratio.. this will allow for superb HD playback with the right video card, Dual Link DVI cable, and a good Tuner card.

I picked up an Acer 22" from TigerDirect about a month ago for $200. Excellent monitor for gaming.
