Need a 19" lcd monitor

[himadri_sm]

I need a 19" widescreen lcd monitor within rs10000/-.please suggest.if its a dell,please tell me where i can get it?

[dOm1naTOr]

Dell 198WFp seems to be best choice under 10k. Dell recently stopped online purchase of monitors. U can call their toll free number on home page to enquire bout the nearest authorized dealer or shops.

[gxsaurav]

U should rather go for LG L206WTQ, 20" LCD for Rs 10.5k

[desiibond]

+1 for Dell 198WFT. awesome quality and superb performance. Add to that 3yr onsite replacement warranty.

AOC 917 VW is a nice 19' lcd at Rs9600 It is built well and supports HDCP

[desiibond]

^^ Isn't Dell a better choice for just Rs.200 more??

[diffuser911]

How abt the Samsung 953BW?? It seemed to be a good choice from this months review in the magazine...I was planning to go for that...

[desiibond]

^^yep. this one's also a superb monitor but costs around 12k i think, for which you will get a 20" Dell monitor.

DellTM SP2008WFP 20". Price is around13k (including tax)
20"
2ms response time
2000:1 typical contrast ratio compared to 1000:1 typical contrast ratio of 953BW
integrated webcam
1 USB2.0 upstream port and 4USB2.0 downstream port

Guys...I was out shopping for a 19" LCD in Bhubaneswar, Orissa...Truly shocked that hardly 2 or 3 models were available, that too in a few shops. Here were the choices:
>Samsung 943...9.6k
>LG L192W...9.4k
>LG W1942S...9.3k
>A couple of Viewsonic monitors...

The story of despair is that none sported a DVI interface, leave alon HDCP...Am totally confused what to do, as need to buy urgently before 29th of the month...Any suggestions???

[heartripple]

don't get lg samsung just go for DELL

[diffuser911]

The Dell guys are charging through the roof for Dell SE198WFP. The listed price is 9200/- on their site, but their reps tell me it will cost 10.6k!!! Anyone who has purchased, please give some idea how there is so large difference?

[desiibond]

^^ Dude. I bought 198WFP for Rs.9,800. Not from Dell direct but from a dealer in SP Road, bangalore. And I do get 3yr direct warranty from Dell.

[diffuser911]

Gr8 for you, but I live in Bhubaneswar, Orissa, where the shopkeepers wonder what DVI is...

[mandar5]

can 19"' lcd monitor be used as display for xbox360,ps3???

[desiibond]

^^ yes. using RCA to VGA/DVI converter i think.

[diffuser911]

Guys, what do you say? Should I go for a non-DVI model, or order a DVI one from Dell???

[sonicspeed]

Dell 198WFP has some problem in contrast.

now days xbox360 has hdmi support so u can use the hdmi converter with dvi port lcd

[diffuser911]

Dell 198WFP has some problem in contrast.

ask your friend to set up the brightness and contrast settings properly. I used Displaymate to adjust these.

Brightness around 65 and contrast around 60. Resulting quality is excellent and is also easy on eye.

I have a Samsung SyncMaster 940NW 19" widescreen, I bought this exactly one year back for 11.5K, Now the prices would have really fallen. The clarity is awesome, so I recommend it.

[NoasArcAngel]

hey guys go for the samsung 920nw amazing contrast, high refresh rate and fast response time truly amazing monitor

[desiibond]

no DVI for both 940nw and 920nw. I would stay away from both. Better pick either LG L206WTQ or Dell 198WFP. Both are superb displays

[NoasArcAngel]

so?

[diffuser911]

Hey guys, got a Samsung 920NW...no DVI, but no options as well...DVI things were for 13k, so totally outta my budget and timeframe...same for the Dell...15 days delivery?? No way!! Still to test the thing...will post soon about results for movies and gaming experience...

[desiibond]

^^^ 15 days delivery? I bought my 198WFP directly from a dealer and he got it in 20 minutes.

no DVI... well, what can I say???

You can easily get Dell/Acer/ASUS/LG 19" monitors with DVI inside 10k easily. You should've searched. It took 2hours of phone calls for me to locate the dealer that can get me the monitor that I wanted

anyways, congrats for your purchase.

[diffuser911]

Thanks bond bhai, but i was unable to locate any dealer in the street in the town that was infested with hardware vendors...even tried in my hometown, without avail...no DVI sucks, but will do if the display is good for some old-time CS and GTA runs...and yup, movies too...
