I like monitors but they don't like me

Post by aokay »

I've just ordered a fat new system and I need a monitor. I don't want to spend to much on it but it needs to be a pretty nice monitor. You know, .26, 27inch, high res., but I would like to stay close to 200 or maybe less or maybe a little more. Is there a site that sells used ones perhaps? What would be a good monitor in your opinion? BTW, this is what I bought:

AMD Thunderbird 1.4GHz 266FSB
Maxtor 30GB IDE ATA100 7200rpm
Abit KG7 DDR/ATA100/ATX Motherboard
Sound Blaster Live Value
256MB DDR PC2100 266MHZ
A translucent case and power supply
nVIDIA GEFORCE2 GTS 32MB DDR vid. card
and a DVD player

I'll be screamin' but not without a monitor!

I got a refurbed ADI 6P for $200 + shipping. It is a 19" with built in microphone and USB 4 port hub.

The shipping is kinda high, but worth it.

Walmart sometimes has some pretty good prices on monitors. I suspect they get them via Sam's Club (they're owned by the same company).
