Does this Acer have a Glossy Screen ?

I doubt it..the F-20 and it's non-Ferrari clone (can't remember the model #) are the only glossy panel Acer's I'm aware of. I have a F-20 on my secondary rig and I'm one of the people who actually prefer the glossy coating. :cool:

edit- "Crystalbrite" would be touted as a feature if that monitor had it...so I'm gonna say definitely not.

Well maybe it does have a glossy panel after all....the strange part is that particular model isn't listed on the US site, just the "global" and there isn't even a picture (and doesn't mention crystalbrite for any particular model). Since it's considered a "gamers line" monitor it may very well have a glossy panel. One thing is for sure though...with a 5ms response time you are getting a TN panel.
 
I know you don't want to go into detail right now ( I will look on the web and do my homework myself ) But are TN panel's just bad all around or just for color view angel but good and fast for games ?

Thank's for all your help joemama.

To simply say TN panels are "bad" wouldn't be correct...many people are happy with TN panels and the current generation seems to do a much better job with viewing angles and simulating 16.7m colors with dithering.
