Hi all,
the wife is letting me get a flatpanel upgrade for my birthday. I am on a tight budget, so I am looking at a 19inch w/ DVI in the sub $250 range. I will be gaming on this monitor, so response times are a factor. Both of these monitors seem to have decent specs, and I really can't tell if one is better than the other. I'd really appreciate it if you guys could weigh in and give me an idea which I should get or another in this price range.

Acer AL1917ABMD

BenQ FP91V

See if this deal is still going on at PC Connection. I got that 19" LCD and I'm really happy with it. FarCry looks wonderful on it with settings maxed out at 12x10 resolution.

Hehe, ok, I ended up going up a model and ordered the BenQ FP93GX, which is a presumably newer 2ms panel for about $30 more. Thanks for all the feedback though, as it got me to lean towards BenQ over Acer. I will post a review once the panel gets here if anyone is interested.
