Ive had my 6800U for a short while now and im out looking for a good screen that can give me the full advantage of my 6800U.

I would like the best possible screen for games and:
High resolution
Highest refresh possible at the highest res
19-21inch display
Fast response time
Decent price!!

Ive found this CRT but i cant find any reviews on it:http://accessories.euro.dell.com/sna/ProductDetail.aspx?TabPage=producthighlights&sku=IM-151Z495-GB&spagenum=&category_id=103&brandid=&k=&c=uk&l=en&cs=ukdhs1&mnf=&prst=&prEnd=&mnfsku=&orderby=&searchtype=&pageb4search=&page=productlisting.aspx&instock=&refurbished=

Is it good or bad??

Please help :)

Its a good monitor, but get it *anywheres* except DELL. Ripoff artists.
Its sad how many outfits treat the pound like its the american dollar.
Its mainly american based companys that are more guilty for it.

Why in the hell does nobody ever recommend the Apple Cinema Displays except me!? :bash: I mean I would think that if a person could afford a 6800 Ultra then they surely they could afford an Apple Cinema Display. Right?

Add another vote for the Mitsubishi 2070SB. You will be in gaming goodness at 2048X1536 85Hz. A lot of games are very playable at that resolution with the Ultra. Screen of FlatOut at 2048X1536 resolution (resized) with 2XAA/8XAF and one of KOTOR at 16X12 (resized)4XAA/8XAF.

I do believe he's looking for a crt not a lcd. And he may not want to spend $1300 on a lcd.

I am looking for a CRT because i can get alot more for my money.

The only thing i prefer about LCD's is the size.

From what ive read here and other forums that CRT's are better for gamers.

What do you think of it:

You should be fine with that. That model uses the exact same CRT that the 2070SB uses.

I actually prefer the 2070sb here:http://www.dealtime.co.uk/xPF-NEC_Mitsubishi_Diamond_Pro_2070SB_22_in

Thanks for that :)

Ive read some reviews and the 2070sb is rated one of the best for gamers :) They said the iilyama had problems at its highest resolution.

I cant find the 2070sb in the UK yet or a price for it??
