Hey everyone,
I just finished my first year of college, and during my second semester I started playing some online poker on my laptop. To make a long story short, I've done pretty well and would like to become more serious. In order to do this I have to abandon playing on my laptop as the resolution doens't allow me to fit multiple tables without overlap. My current monitor is probably 8 years old, and is really hard on the eyes, so I'm in the market for a new monitor. I'm looking to pick up an LCD monitor in order to replace my old CRT. Its primary function will probably be for poker, but I'd like to be able to play CS:S without ghosting as well. I don't plan on continually buying new monitors, so I don't mind spending money in order to get a quality monitor. Thus, I don't really have a set price range that I'm looking for, so I guess I'm wondering what monitors currently offer the best price/performance ratios for the aforementioned uses. Suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
