Time for a new monitor, where are the reviews?

My 10+ year old 17" Nanao T2-17 is finally starting to give up the ghost. It's starting to flicker and the bottom part of the screen is jumping up and down. The crispness has also been fading for the last couple of years. So.... I have an ATi AIW 7500 that has DVI output so I figured I would go with an LCD. At least 17", but perhaps 19" if the price/performance is right. I do play some games and watch movies so the response time is of moderate concern.
Can anyone either recommend monitors to check out or point to a web site that has a recent review that compares many models (Yes, I already did a google search and an ATF search). THG and PCMag both have old reviews (last summer).

Do some searches on the forums. There are tons of threads on it. In a number of them I talk about my 192t. I highly recommend it. There is also much discussion of other models. But if you can spend $680-$700 I would get the 192t. If your budget is larger I would get the 213t. If your budget is smaller then both of those I am not sure. But there is plenty of discussion of 17" ones on here by other people.

If you get the right LCD I don't think you will ever want to go back to CRTs. I sure don't.
 

The Viewsonic VP 171, Sony HX73, BenQ FP767, Samsung 172X, NEC 1760NX, Planer PX 191 are popular 17" LCD for gamers.
