Best autocad monitor

[seabassiam]

Hi, I'm looking to update our CAD dept with new systems & monitors and thought I'd ask the pros. We use Autocad 10 and will be running Revit MEP. Anyone recommend a good video card & 22"+ LCD monitor combo for this? Thanks

22"?

I'd go bigger than that if I could...

(or even go multiple monitors - even if one is an old 19" 4:3)


With regards GPUs... you might be better off getting a professional card (Quadro/FirePro) as for most CAD packages (certainly CATIA anyway), they are better than their desktop equivalents.

Thanks, I'm leaning toward the LG W2486L 24" (when it comes out) with a GTX 260 card.
Those 24" have gotten way cheap, and still less real estate than my current 19" crt anchor.
