Are any LCDs out there affordable and ready for gaming? I'm asking a lot but wonder if there exists such a thing?

I want to build the most mobile desktop I can, suggestions please, it will be a gamer so it will need to have some power, the case and mobo/cpu are my biggest choices I think.

Thanks in advance.

I have thought about taking a KDS RAD-5 and doing one of the briefcase type mods and mounting the LCD right to the case so the whole thing is one unit. Go to a LAN party and chuck the whole thing on the table and you're good to go. I was thinking of protecting the LCD by mounting a pice of Plexiglass right to the frame of the monitor.

The KDS has 25ms response time (combined rise & fall I believe), you won't want a screen with anything higher than that. I haven't really seen anything faster than that either. I am assuming you are looking at getting a 15" LCD.
