looking for a new monitor

[Bobby Pickering]

Just as the title says im looking for a new monitor. I have a pair of Acer v193's now that i have no issues with but my new video card only supports 1 analog monitor. I need one that has digital signal. Im looking for a Fullscreen 19" monitor. id like to stay less than $150 but i can go a little over $200 if needed. Ive checked newegg for a digital acer and only found one that fits this bill but its lone review wasnt impressive and im unable to find any other reviews of the same model anywhere else. the monitory will be used for gaming (world of warcraft), movies, and photo editing. not sure if that matters but im throwing it out there.

On a side note if im unable to find a 19" fullscreen that meets my needs... would i have any trouble running 1-19" fullscreen and say a 22-23" widescreen? Would the different size screens cause a problem or run different resolutions? Loss of FPS in game?

No; resolution is not the same as screen size.

I'd recommend these:
Asus VH238H
Asus VS238H-P

Both are within your budget.

I have run a 27" widescreen alongside a 19" box monitor and had no problems running both in proper video ratios. You should be able to run them at the same resolution if they are capable of the same resolution, otherwise you will have to reduce resolution to the best resolution of the lesser monitor (Highest Common Denominator).

Thanks for the replys! any imput on a 19" fullscreen? im not really a widescreen fan so id use those options as a last resort.

I don't know any good 19" monitors. How about the Dell UltraSharp 2007FP? It's 20.1"
