A good sony monitor is going to last you for about 2-3 years and still kick ass.

a gf4 will become outdated within 6-12 months.

I hope that worked.
any way, they have those sweet monitors. I heard the 17" version is better than the Samsung 17" flat.
but I'm not sure about 19"
Oh, I doubt u'll find those monitors on the site but give them a call.

shame you cant save for a bit longer and spend around $1200 on a sony g420 19". bought me one about a month ago and it is one of my best purchases to date. If you look around you might find it cheaper (around $1100 if you know someone) but i'd say its worthwile saving up a decent amount and getting yourself the top of the range. When you are talking about a monitor or something you will have for a long time, its my philosophy to splurge and get the best.

Yeah, i'd probably go the monitor, you can always have a good v-card. But you want something awesome to watch it on.

500 (approx) for a SONY 17" Trinitron, new model. 1600x1200 60Hz. 1280x1024 85Hz.

All you need, a SONY 17" Is going to last longer, and be a better monitor then speding good money on s*** (bottom-of-the-range) 19" monitors.

If you can afford it get a 21" monitor it's the best thing you can do. Your eyes will thank you for it and it doesn't matter how crappy your vid card is everything will look better :)

Sony is IMHO way overpriced. I wouldn't fork out $1,000 for a sony when you can buy a Mitsubishi or LG or Viewsonic for much much cheaper. Just make sure you buy a monitor with a low dotpitch, and high refresh rates. And if at all possible see it running before you buy it.

Sounds nice. I was thinking of one of the LGs as a LANning monitor (rather than lugging a 21" around). I wasn't impressed with the DPI on it though. I think Hitachi had a flatscreen with a better dpi. But I'm not sure what the Hitachi quality is like generally.

Ummm Shotty..

the 17"s can't do 1280x1024 @ 85hertz..

well mine cant with a gf3. Mine can do 1280x960 @ 85 hertz, 1280x1025 @ 75 hertz, 1600x1200 @ 60 hertz, all resolutions past 1600x1200 it can do @ 60hertz, BESIDES 2048x1536, which it can't do at all

Sure matey, whatever you think. 1600x1200 at 75Hz.

Although, a pretty pricey 17"

My LG 795FT plus 17" max res is 2048x1536 but then again my Geforce 4's max res is 2048x1536 as well ...

1600x1200 75hz

I would rather have a 19" though, the only 19" I would consider are Sony or Viewsonic. Other 19" have the same specs as my 17".

Okay all of you are saying sony is the best that is the biggest load of f***ing crap
Hitachi make better 19 inch displays than sony....

www.hitachidisplays.com....
they have a 0.22mm aperture grille better than the 0.24 sony standard gayness and they have higher refresh rates pfft suck it down sony lovers.
www.umart.com.au you want the cm722 :)
