| Check the details. If you like them and the monitor itself appeals to you then that is what you should get. I chose the 225BW because of the height adjustment.

| I looked around and finally went with a Samsung 225BW. I'm perfectly happy with it. Cost no where near what a 24" would have cost. Picture is great with no dead pixels. Games just fine. |

| I have a 22inch screen and am considering getting a 30 incher. How much graphics horsepower is required for one of these? I have an ATI 1900XT. Would that be enough? |
