Ok here's the deal. I'm in the navy and building a SFF system because i want a portable computer (I'm sick of laptops -.-) for easy travel and storage and I need a 17"-19" LCD thats can handle FPS games and costs around $200-$300. The only reason that I'm asking is because I've been out of the loop as far as the technology goes and I really have no clue what to look at or what to look for as far as LCD tech goes :\
 
I just ordered this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824116095. You can get it at buy.com for $234 shipped before $20 MIR.

Viewsonic VX1940w
Seems like a TN panel
19" 1680x1050 resolution 2ms 1000:1 static contrast ratio
Includes DVI cable.

High resolution for this size so if you have trouble reading smaller text(still very crisp) you'll want a 1440x900 screen.

Samsung 226BW(22") is pretty popular here so you'll probably get some 206BW(20") or 2032BW(newer version of 206BW) recommendations. LG's L206WTY-BF is another 20" option.
 
cool thanks for the info :) oh and text size isnt a big issue. My laptop's desktop resolution is set to 1920x1200.
