Any suggestion?

Thursday, September 5, 2002 by adni18 | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I am trying to find out which is the best TFT flat monitor to buy.
Does any of you have any suggestion or any particular place in the internet, where I can get some good information?
Thank you in advance

well my only suggestion is to shop around and get what you want that will serve your needs. You do not want to get stuck with something cheap and works fine but is not what you wanted or needed.


Soooooo.... is this to make better skins??? I hope so, my download finger is twiching again.

If you have the money, Apples 23" Cinama Display, with a DVI Adapter and a Radeon 9700 looks pretty sweet, I saw it, I was very jelous.

Joe. Feline is not a woman. His real name is Colin
Doreen is a woman, though, as well as Elf, StarOne, ChiChiGirl, China (if she ever comes back) and a few others that I can't think of right off hand....brain is getting fuzzy in my old age.....

Gender identity check! If you thought goodmorphing was male, then the name has served its purpose well. Like the early authors changed their gender identified female names to male, I have sought to find ambigious names. Walking into a chat room (for instance) with a female name is sure to light up your screen with whispers (probably one reason I hate chats now). Then again, there are numerous people on my site who have become totally disenchanted and confused to find their crush was, in fact, misplaced! I did wish I could find one that was clearly ambiguous so that people would have to wonder. I think that must be impossible. People form impressions. They cannot help it.

Joe must be a little slow or young. It only took about one day to seperate the males from females. Just listen(read) the conversations and you can guess about 99% correctly.

Apart from the Apple cinema screen, The Samsung 17" with built-in TV tuner is a good bet. I have their earlier 15" and it's v. good (good bang for the buck).

I read a recent review that made a good point though: LCD screens look awful at anything other than their native resolution.

Still. I would never go back to a CRT.

treetog runs to give his opinion, interested on Adni's higher wall resolutions.

I use a Sansung 955DF 100% flat screen. It is not that expensive and have a real good image.

Well, a good video card also helps a lot.

Thank you Paul for your advice
I know the Apple Cinema Display, is very good, but I think that the technology goes running and there are newest and better models, I just can't decide which one to buy. Right now I am thinking the new 18.1" Sony X-series with DVI-I connector. I know that 18" Eizo also is very good also, (maybe better).
You know, I just wanted to see what is the WinCustomize opinion and if someone could post a link to find out some comparison with many models, some user opinion etc.

Thank you Judge I couldn't find anything in the internet, just to look and read the descriptions for Samsung LCD monitors.

Thank you Renato for your answer The Samsung 955DF is CRT monitor and I am looking for LCD monitor, any way you are going to see higher resolutions from me after some days

LCD TFT moniters huh.. I'd say just buy the cheapest one. It doesn't matter what kind of moniter you buy (unless it doesn support higher then 1028*800 or somethin..) it is what your video card matters. However your moniter is good and cool, if your videocard sux.. your OUT! So if you are working on a new computer or soemthin.. i suggest the ATI Radeon. Its cool and works rly good. Its bright so i heard its good for your eyes too. And i also heard that 9700 or watever newest 9xxx is coming out so if u want that, jus buy a cheap one and wait till it comes out and save money!!

You are right about the graphics card, that's why I have buy all ready the NVidia GeForce 4 Ti4600 (128MB,DVI-I). Now I am looking fot the right monitor.
