Monitor Purchase

[ast70]

It's a Jungle out there. Specs are all over the place and don't realy tell you all that much being that every manufacturer has his own slant to look good.

Iam in the process of buying a 19" LCD. My choices are Dell 1905-FP and Samsung 910T. Both monitors are about the same price (About $400).I am not into Gaming other Tiger Wood Golf and similar.
Any help on making a decision will be very much appreciated.

DFI mAtx Mobo K8M800-MLVF
1g Corsair Value
AMD 64 3000
Radeon 9600 Pro 256mb
NEC 3520A Optical
Samsung 120GB SATA HD

I would say that you should go with the Dell based on the two you listed, but I thought both were more than what you have listed. I think the 1905 is $549 currently.

Myself I am trying to decide wether or not to keep the VX910 that I picked up locally (Best Buy - due to being able to return with no restocking fee). The monitor has a $50 rebate currently, and appears to be working just fine (no dead pixels as well) so it comes to $449.

I am anal about things that cost over $50 so...

From my point of view the VX910 seems pretty good, but I am not sure if it is TN+, PVA or MVA technology and I would prefer an 8-bit panel.

As for those choices, I would go for the Dell.
