Its a ASUS 22" VE228T LED Widescreen Monitor with 1920x1080 Resolution, 10000000:1 Contrast Ratio, 250cd/m² Brightness, 5ms Response Time, 1x DVI-D Input, 1x VGA Input, Speakers, 3 Years Warranty.
Now Ive been an avid CRT user for 20 odd years all the LCD displays I have used just look crap compared to a proper crt (But saying that a cheap crt looks truely dreadful which is probably where all the hate comes from). I know I have made a mistake buying this asus without even seeing the image it displays.
Will it be ok for games? I was a little worried with the 5ms response time but I got a good deal on this display. I normally play starcraft 2, left 4 dead, battlefield bad company, that sort of thing.
Also what if I lower the resolution from 1920x1080? My pc isnt that great. i2500k, 8gig mushkin silverline (Well that stuff is ok) but the graphics card is a total bottleneck as its only a old g92 8800 gts . So if I lower the resolution will it stretch or skew the image? Also what about old games that dont support widescreen?
Also does anyone know where to get a replacement power board for a mitsubushi 2060u crt monitor?
as for the past few years I have been buying old quality crts on ebay but they only seem to last a few years before failing and I cant find a decent quality crt locally so had to make the jump to tft.
