Default One more question is the extra inch 19inV20in worth 73 bucks

Iv decide to go for the extra monitor but as you know I have the BenQ FP91G+ 19in that Iv been very happy with
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16824014090
The BenQ FP202W20.1 is about 73 dollars more I get free shipping with this on for some reason.........total $295.00 for the 20.1 and $210.00 for the 19in.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16824014105

For those of you that have experience with the 19 and 20 inch LCD's is it worth the extra 75 bucks?????? Or is it not big deal and stick with the cheaper on that matches and looks purdy!! (not that that's a big deal) LOL Thanks guys...

OH yea if anyone is looking for a X800GTO PCIE or a agp X1600PRO there is a combo deal on it and I could split the difference with ya.....

Oh dude, absolutely spend the extra $75 on the 20.1. It's a 1680x1050 widescreen vs your current 1280x1024 standard aspect. You will flip a lid when you see the realestate that baby has to offer! Good price too!

No right or wrong answer, it comes down to personal opinion. For me, I'd spend the extra upfront for the added real estate. Keep in mind that the monitor is what gets used more than any other computer peripheral - you'll be staring at it every time your PC is fired up, and presumably this is a longterm investment.

So yeah, size matters... :P

I was preaching this to someone about monitor keyboard and mouse the other day..........I'm even thinking of getting the combo deal and selling it on ebay the X800gto .....although Im not so sure about the co. it's made by.>>?? The co. is Powercolor......now the agp 1600 is sapphire and only cost about 35 dollars after the 75 dollars discount. so total is is like 335.00 for monitor and vid card.....I'm sure I could reseal that on eabay.

Nice, sapphire is one of the top ATI manufacturers, and the AGP x1600 is a fairly hot item, I would do it and I am certain that at bare minimum you would break even, though I don't see any reason you wouldn't make some money as that card retails between $115 and $130.
My advice: go for it! :D

It's alright capper, i'm pretty sure you're not alone. :P
Looking good, give us some feedback.




If there is a final hour, let's hope for a higher power. One by one, and two by two, I have ammo, what about you?

Sweet monitor man. I know I'm going with a 1600x1200 monitor when I make the upgrade (this 1024x768 is killing me!).
