LCD monitors suggestion

Hi everyone!

I'm about to purchase a new LCD for my PC (an old PC), currently I'm debating between these monitors,

LG L196WTQ

Viewsonic VP930B

Samsung SyncMaster 226BW

I would love to hear your recommendation as I need this monitor to watch movies, play games and maybe watch Tv (after connecting a Tv card).

The games I'm going to play at this time are old like diablo 2 and heroes 3, in the future I'm going to upgrade the PC in order to play newer games.


Thanks in advance.

Oren Nathan.

If your thinking Samsung 226bw be sure and look at the HPw2207 before you buy.
I took my Samsung back and am loving the HP. As good or better pitcure, much easier to adjust anything that may need adjusting.
