Need some info on LCD's

[Hanpan]

I have been looking at a couple of lcd's including

The dell 2000fp

Nec 1850x

and the NEC 1830

I have also looked at the planar 18.1 and others but the above 3 are my main concern.

I am mostly intersted in ghosting.

I cannot find accurate information on the dell but I believe the pixel refresh is about 25ms.
THe 1830 alos has about a 25ms refresh whiel the 1850x has an amazing 14ms or so. The planar on the other hand has a 50ms refresh
yet many say they experience no ghosting problems at all.

The dell has by far the best specs (pixel refresh non-withstanding) but I was wondering what others though.

Also which pixel refresh time necessary for no ghosting.

Thanks

I too am about an inch away from pulling the trigger on a nice LCD flat panel. i hadn't looked at the 1850x yet and followed your link...you should not it is actually 29 ms pixel response time per the pdf file you linked to. 14 to rise and 15 to fall. I have yet to see any of these with a FPS playing which would be the litmus test if they have the technology down buy from what i hear 50 ms is simply unusable for gaming and dvds.

I owned the 2000FP and it's the nicest LCD I have ever layed my eyes on. No Ghosting and DVD movies look superb.

Hanpan:

I got the 2000fp as well and it's incredible. It's $1334.20 shipped right now (not sure when dell will pull this deal) if you get the 20% off, no tax, free shipping, and $25 coupon.

I know of the current dell promotion but I am in canada so this is not an option for me.
🙁

Oh man, that bites. How is the price of the 2000fp compared to the likes of the NEC or perhaps the viewsonic VG191?
