ViewSonic X Series VX922 Black-Silver 19" 2ms LCD Monitor 270 cd/m2 650:1

Pros: viewsonic vx series performance as advertised

Cons: none

Other Thoughts: response is so fast i am able to beat others better than me

Pros: works fine when it does

Cons: it blew up twice
First time it was under warranty so I RMA'd it.
New monitor had same issue. Smoke came out and you could smell a burning plastic. Would not power back on.
Out of warranty so can't be replaced again.

Pros: - Good response Rate
- Nice colors

Cons: - Not Widescreen

Other Thoughts: This was my first LCD, purchased ~5 years ago. I was not used to the harder to read text in comparison to the 19" CRT I'd had, so that took a little getting used to.

Other than that, a solid gaming monitor. I didn't have any serious problems.

Pros: The monitor is crisp, clean, arrived without any dead pixels, doesn't ghost and achieves pretty much everything you'd want from a monitor in at a fir price.

Cons: The stand does not offer any adjustable height, just tilt. Prone to failure after 6-12 months where the screen blanks out, LED blinks green every second or so, and takes about 5 minutes to restore video. ViewSonic customer service has horrible replacement polices. The first time it must go in for repair, which will take 10-14 business days, with no replacement monitor.

Other Thoughts: While I do like the monitor, I will never buy from ViewSonic again. Their policies are terrible, their customer support bordering on rude, and would not come to an acceptable solution.

Pros: -bright
-one of the lowest response times around
-very crisp
-no dead pixels
-viewsonic quality
-nice to look at
-great for most games
-viewing angle

Cons: -not fast enough response time for RTS (real time strategy) games for my liking

Other Thoughts: This is my first LCD Monitor and overall I'm pretty impressed. I play a variety of games, RTS being my favorite. Unfortunately, not even this monitor's great response time is fast enough for enjoyable blur-free gaming with games such as Rise of Nations. It's not horrible blur, but I'd much rather use a CRT for those kinds of games. But I guess if you compare the performance to other LCDs, this monitor is certainly top-notch. If you don't play RTS games like I do, I wouldn't waste another minute without this monitor.

Pros: This is my first LCD monitor, which I switched to from a 19" CRT about 9 months ago, and wow, what a difference! Everything seems so much clearer and sharper. Seeing as how I never used an LCD monitor with a higher response time (for gaming), all I can say is I do not notice any sign of ghosting. It's like using my CRT, expect much better (and lighter/smaller). Also, this is by far one of the best/most stylish looking monitors around!

Cons: The only con I could think of is that the backlight is a little bright for dark games, but still easily enjoyable. Also, the backlight bleeds a little on the top and bottom when looking at a completely black image. The default brightness was also a little much, had to turn it down a bit.

Other Thoughts: My Rig - EVGA 680i A1 | Intel Q6600 @ 3.0 GHz (w/Zalman 9700) | BFG 8800 GTX @ 626/2000 | 2x 1GB Corsair Dominator PC8500| Creative X-Fi Fatal1ty | PC P&C 750W Silencer | Thermaltake Armor Black Full Tower w/25CM Fan | 1x Western Digital SE16 500GB | 2x Western Digital SE16 250GB RAID-0 (Windows Vista x64) | 2x Western Digital SE16 250GB RAID-0 (Windows XP) | Logitech X-540 Surround Sound | Logitech G15 Keyboard + G5 Mouse | ViewSonic VX922 19" 2ms LCD

Pros: No dead pixels, I must be lucky.

Cons: Out of the box i had black light bleeding from the top. Ghosting is minimal but still there. About a week ago after having it for a year and 2 months it finally stopped working on me. Every time i would start up my computer the monitor would flicker and the monitor light would flash on and off.

Other Thoughts: I'm going to rma it to viewsonic ASAP and hope i can get a good one which probably won't happen.

Pros: From a gaming Veteran, this monitor has enhanced the experiance of all the games I play. Details in the game that I haven't been able to see with other monitors.

Cons: none

Pros: Good monitor that i can't wait to own.

Cons: Newegg sent me an email saying it was in stock. So i ordered one the same day. When i checked the order the next day, they said it was void because they didn't have the product in stock. I have been waitiing over a month. Its funny how they sent emails saying it was in stock when it wasn't.

Other Thoughts: I hope they credit my card in 2-3 days like they said.

Pros: Very fast monitor. You won't get any ghosting from this guy.

Cons: After playing BF2 or EVE on this monitor and then playing on a friends, I realized there are better looking monitors. Colors seem great when you have nothing to compare them to, but put the VX922 beside a different monitor and you'll see that the colors are actually a bit dull.

Other Thoughts: I've had 2 of these for 2 years now and I love them. Cheap, fast, never a dead/stuck pixel.
