I was trying to pick a LCD 19inch on newegg.com, but there is just so many options that im having a hard time trying to pick one.

I bought a Samsung T220 and while it was ok, but 22inch seemed too big. I thought about getting a 19inch but I want to go for one that fits the following...

I play alot of FPS and strategy games and do alot of programming and watch movies on the computer. So I know I need something with a 5 or lower response time.

But I get confused on 700:1 contrast ratio and then they have the whole 8000:1 and 20k:1 Dynamic contrast ratio which I know means that it could possibly hit those colors....but that its rare...

So, if you were going to buy a new LCD 19inch monitor... what would you buy?

Thanks
 
Viewsonic VX910.

It's a bit older, but the specs are still better than most anything current, and it's still the best LCD that I've used, as far as contrast/brightness/response time. I've used this monitor to play Q3, RTCW, and CS very competitively online. Because of the demand for a monitor that didn't make me feel disadvantaged in competition, I needed something that felt like a good CRT. After a few monitors, I easily settled on this one. I would highly recommend it.
 
Hey, that's what I have(see sig)! I've had this for 2 years now and it's been a great monitor. I think a few months ago I just realized that it can tilt forward. For a while I had a package of mints under the base to tilt it forward. I also have my Xbox 360 hooked up through VGA and can switch freely from PC to Xbox.

I'm about to put this monitor to rest and get a widescreen. I've been craving one recently(see the Samsung t240thread).
