I cancelled my order of my 2001FP because I never, ever use 1600x1200 and I've been doing a lot of gaming lately and my videocard can't handle 1600x1200. Plus, I'm still not sold on the LCDs. Anyways...


I was looking into a 19" CRT to replace my aging and scratched Dell 17" CRT. I was looking at the 19" CRTs on Newegg and I have no idea which one to buy.

I like the Samsung 997 because it's not as deep as the other monitors, but I hate the silver front (little bro has the 17" SyncMaster and I don't like the silver.. plus it wouldn't match). I also like the NEC/Mitsu FE991 and 990, but I don't know what the difference is between the two. The ViewSonic P95 and G90FB have also piqued my interest, but again.. I'm lost.

ViewSonic P95+B

Samsung 997DF-T/T

If anyone has any comments or suggestions or anything, please do so. Thanks.

I vote for viewsonic G90FB. I have it and it is a great monitor. Can do 1600*1200 at 75 Hz. I have it at 85 Hz on 1280*1024 right now. +free shipping from newegg means you save $25.
