I've been using my CRT monitor (Viewsonic p95f+ 19") for at least four years now and i think it's time for a change. I wanted to get an LCD monitor and after looking at many many many options with help from this forum and Anandtech I keep coming back to this one:
NEC Display Solutions 20WMGX2-BK Black-Silver 20.1" DVI Widescreen LCD Monitor
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824002320
I've heard a lot of good things about it but since it IS quite pricey I wanted to check and make sure it's worth it. Basically this is what I do on my computer:
Work - Website design (Photoshop) and development (lots of coding), using Microsoft Office programs (Word, Excel, etc.)
Gaming - Not a 'hardcore' gamer but i do like playing FPS games like Unreal Tournament and do plan on playing UT3 maybe Crysis, Bioshock, and ET: Quake Wars in the future, and maybe do some mapping/modding for UT3 as well
Miscellaneous tasks - Web surfing, watching movies, etc.
So is the monitor overkill? or are there better monitors than this one for less money?
Thanks for your help in advance.
