What is possibly the best LCD (17" or 19") that I can get for under $300.

Two recent one's i've been looking at are:

ViewSonic VA1912WB

Samsung 713BM
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16824001213

The Samsung some have said is comparable to the 710n, which doesn't seem like a particularily awesome model. But other than, no reviews are available.
And no reviews are available for the ViewSonic either.

I am just looking for whatever the best is I can buy for $300. No I cannot raise the budget either, $300 or below.
I'd like it to look nice, and not be a crappy black box. But if it is the best, then I guess it doesn't matter.
If its going to be a 19", it cant be one that the picture stretches or looks any worse than a 17", although I can't imagine a 19" ever being better than any 17" models, and still be under $300.

thanks

edit:
what is something that can compare to Hyundai's L90D+? I say that because it is getting rave reviews, but seems to be plagued the problem with vertical lines. I refuse to take that kind of risk with such an expensive piece of equipment, so if I can find something that compares in performance but is better, than I'll take it.
Still would prefer the L90D's performance, but in a 17". Will likely be better and have a better ability to scale (interpolation) due to the better pixel pitch. either way... 17" thats great for gaming would be awesome.
Still really interested in that 19" widescreen from ViewSonic though. Would love to have widescreen. my laptop is widescreen (16:10) so I am really used to gaming in widescreen and love it.
