All reports on this LCD have been very good - on the newsgroups too (I looked all over and saw nothing bad at all) - but with all the LCDs gaming acceptability is very subjective. If you're determined to rid yourself of that money just for gaming the Compaq is probably better, and any decent CRT will whup up on it real bad for ½ the $$.
