Wow you guys are good. I have headaches just by thinking of which parts to choose, but you guys came up with a list right away. I will show him the list and see which option he's going. I was thinking of telling him to go with Dell, but i know i can do better just like what Danny Bui said...

http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/forumdisplay.php?f=40 <<< Go to this forum, you'll have all your questions answered (maybe.. :D ) Anyways, just to let you know i work as a Directv installer and i've seen quite a few good TVs. You won't be dissapointed with any plasma or LCD out there except of...

Both the Acer AL2423Wdr and Dell 2407 are the best bang for your buck imo. The Samsung 244tt is also good but not worth the price.

If you are planning to use it for your computer also then i say go for the Acer since it can do both (TV and computer viewing) and the Viewsonic well, its just a TV. So pick one.

Do you need a monitor or a TV? They're both different devices; the Viewsonic could be use as a computer monitor though,but with lesser resolution. It seems like you just wanna play video games and watch movies so i'll say go for the Viewsonic since you wanted a TV.

Jesus christ, when will we see real pictures besides gradient pictures? Who the h-e-l-l stare on a gradient screen all day?

You could try the "Hornet" from Monarch.com. You pick the components and they will build it for you. Falcon Northwest (Frag Box2) and Performance-Pc (Qmicra) are good also but they are way over your budget.

Shocky, you're probably one of the extreme gamers in this forum so i hear yah, but i read somewhere in the "display forums" that a 7900GT is good enough for his Dell 2407 monitor. Im just a casual gamer.

Sorry guys, i was actually referring to the sff cases. You guys think all these hot stuff will survive in a small form factor cases?

Is SFF going to be in trouble when 4 core, 4 GPU, and bigger PSU becomes the norm? Any thoughts?

Just because its cheaper doesn't mean its better. Don't make me buy a Ford over a Toyota now. :D Consoles success depends on f-a-n-b-o-y-s...its the reality...price will have little effect on the decisions...trust me. Alright enough said...may the best console wins.

Im sure a single 7900GTX/X1900XTX is sufficient enough to enjoy my games with a "24 monitor. I don't think it will affect me that much playing my games at 90% details. Now back to the original post; i heard ATI cards don't have scaling settings and that the drivers are buggy.

Well, they can bring down the price at the Lian Li V300 level with the same quality. Lian Li can do it why can't Silverstone.

I believe the the X1900XTX is more in the level of the 7900GTX and not the 7950GX2. Even the 7900GTX is slightly better than the X1900XTX i think.
