LCDs for Gaming?

[QuakerOatz]

What are thes best LCDs for FPS gaming thse days?
My Viewsonic VX2025wm is gettting old and I need something bigger.

Looking for a comprehensive side-by-side article for gaming LCDs is not turning up much. Repsonse time is a BS stats these days as every panel in town touts 2-5ms although i suspect many are a ghosty mess in first person shooters.

What are the hardcore FPS gamers using?
Anything suggestions 21" or over?

Budget is between $200 and $400
THanks!

You might want to consider writing an e-mail to viewsonic and ask about there new 24 inch 120hz and see what they say, assuming you like the brand. It is out in Europe, so NA shouldn't be far off?

Yes, the newest trend for FPS is to go on the 120hz wagon. Recently BenQ has also joined the wagon and released their version of a 120hz monitor in order to compete with competitors such as Alienware.

The new monitor is NVIDIA 3D Vision certified, this monitor also has picture by picture function enabling 2 programs (ie: a game and TV running at the same time). Most importantly this screen will also come with height adjustment.

Here's the press release:
