Hello... I don't know too much about monitors.... but I am definitely looking to upgrade. I want to be able to play games at 1600x1200 resolution or higher.
As of now I feel that I want a large CRT monitor. Currently I am considering this: http://www.viewsonic.com/products/desktopdisplays/crtmonitors/graphicseries/g220fb/
I may consider LCD, but I really don't want any ghosting at all. I used to watch my friend play a fps on an apple monitor and it looked awful. I do however like the idea of playing all my games in widescreen. If i were to get an LCD i would probably lean towards the Dell UltraSharp 2405FPW.
So.... what in your very experienced opinion is the better choice? Are new LCD's that much more improved that it's worth getting one just to play in widescreen? or does the overall quality of CRT make for a better game at 1600x1200?
Also... are there any obvious monitor choices I'm missing out on?
Any responses are greatly appreciated
