Need some help choosing a good LCD

[dwk80]

Cool have you tired the LCD with FPS games, if so is there still no ghosting?

Any one know if the Sony TFT 19'' SDM-S93/B or the LG TFT 19" L1930S is any good for gaming/movies?? and if they are better than the previously mentioned LCD'S?

I play FarCry, UT2004, Doom3, Half-Life2, Quake Arena, etc. and none of them show any ghosting. I have a Geforce 6800GT and a Radeon 9800PRO in the two computer I use for gaming. I've used the monitor on both machines and it performs exceptionally well. I have a 20" Sony Trinitron monitor that I didn't think any LCD could come close to in performance but the new, low response time LCD's are in the game. Don't let the price of the Philips fool you...it is a well built monitor, it's not like some of the discounted off brands I've seen in Costco, Staples, and Sams Club. The Philips quality control people did their homework. This monitor is a sleeper...you'll be hard pressed to find a better one for the price until the big boys (Sony, Viewsonic, Dell, Samsung, etc.) discount one of their top of the line monitors ($650-$700) down into this price range. Also, I recommend looking at the user reviews at Newegg.com to get a feel for how some people feel about the other monitors you may be interested in.
