Yet Another Viewsonic VX924 thread

[sswingle]

So I am looking for a new 19" monitor to replace my current 19" My current has 20 ms response time and gives me so much ghosting in FPS games that I hate to play them anymore. Racing games like NFSU2 are fine...although that game blurs stuff on purpose, so it all blends in 😉

Anyways, I saw this monitor online and thought it looked awesome, but I am reading some very mixed reviews on it. Some people say it "sparkles" all the time and looks horrible, and has a "true" response time of close to 30 ms, blah blah blah, other people claim to have it side by side with a 8 ms monitor and say it is so much better, best they have seen, etc etc.

So my question is, should I buy it? Or is there another 19" monitor with DVI input with low response time that I should buy? I have a $400 budget, which is almost exactly what the VX924 costs. And do not even suggest CRT, I have had an LCD for about 5 years and will never go back.

Thanks!

No one has any opinions?

Might search google for reviews such as this one.

Already read reviews. If you had read my post you would have seen that, my concern is that I read such mixed reveiws. Some people love, some hate.

It's a very attractive, stylish looking monitor. Would look nice sitting on your desk 🙂 But I guess it's the image quality you are worried about

I have the Hyundai L90D+ (8ms response time) and love it! I haven't noticed any ghosting in games. If you do a search on L90D+ on this forum, you will find that most people have been very satisfied with it. Plus, its much cheaper than the Viewsonic you are looking at. Good luck!
