I'm ordering a new flat panel today, which one should I get?
 

So far I like the Dell E171FP 17", it's only $450

Is there a better flat panel around this price?

I got the dell 20 inch, bit more expensive but certainly worth it.

hitachi cml174sxb

this is the link to the place I ordered from


fastest response rate = fastest lcd on the market

looks like black is out of stock now.. . I got mine before people knew about them

This may seem like a joke to some of you, but check out the page. Killer displays.

get one of the apples.. i just got the 23 incher, damn its nice :)

Even my 17" Apple is pretty amazing. I have seen the old 22", and those things are just huge... The 23" looks amazing.

ViewSonic by far is one of the best I had that Dell last month it is absolutely horrible DO NOT GET IT. Try View Panel (ViewSonic) VPA models they are great and have dual view capability. You can turn it the long way and your screen will flip the same way.

Apple by far has the coolest monitors on the market hands down.

Samsung SynchMaster 191T
19"

I would buy <a href="http://www.tomshardware.com/display/20030109/index.html">this one</a>

I wouldn't touch those latest hitachis. Look at that review posted, and anandtechs as well. It seems to catch up a bit in the gaming deparment as far as response time goes, but there are better quality pictures out their, and I assume most around here will use it mostly for surfing, design, etc.

Nice monitor, I just read about it and found this funny:

"One swallow doesn't make a summer"

Now there's a phrase I've never seen a hardware article start with, lol

this is what i have... it rocks

works great :thumbsup

Thanks logic00!

I think I'm gonna order the 18". From what I've seen shopping around this morning that's the best deal. Good monitors too, all the guys in our office have the 19"s and 20"s.

I've got a dell ultrasharp 18", love it.

yo got it I have seen the 18 for the price you can not beat it

Ordered. :thumbsup

Dell 20" for me, I like it alot wouldnt want anything smaller now.

Me too. It's great. There's lots of brand new, factory-sealed ones on eBay going for around $450-480.

NOW you tell me... after I drop over $500

:1orglaugh

I gotta say, you're missing out...

Overpriced. Don't like the big opaque frames either.

The Apple displays are nice, if you can afford them.

Other than that, I'd recommend getting the Dell (rebranded) 1800FP or 2000FP.
