Monitors

[Tagoreee]

Does anyone know of some good monitors in the $200 dollar range. Ive been looking at the Samsung 19" CRT,955DF. I will be gaming a lot and doing extensive video editing, so keep thatin mind. Also how much does a bad monitor hold back the potential of my graphics card, here is my rig if i forgot to put it in my signature.

AMD XP 64 3200
Asus K8V Deluxe
120 gb Western Digital
ATI 9800 Pro

I just got a Samsung 900DF last week and love it. The picture is very sharp and there is no visible distortion around the edges.

It all depends on the resolution you plan on running. I am not sure about the 955DF, but mine can only do 68hz refresh rate at 1600x1200, but I only run at 1152x864 @ 85hz, so it works great for me.

A bad monitor won't hold back the performance of your 9800, it will just look like crap
