LCD for gaming (newb)

[total0]

After 6 or 7 years (yea..) of using CRT I've decided to switch over to lcd. I need an advice on how to choose. I'm looking for a 17/19/20" (something around those figures), cheap, yet strong enough to support action games,movies.. what have you.
Or just tell me what specs to look for, what brands to avoid/go with etc.
thanks in advance.

for gaming purposes you would want a very fast responce LCD so you won't feel any input delay on the screen.
Most recommended in this regards for gaming would be a Viewsonic VX922 19" or a Samsung 226BW 22". They are pretty much as close as you can get to a CRT for gaming.

well, is there a big difference between 2/5/7 ms?
