Which LCD Monitor?

[gamer12]

Hey,

I plan to connect Wii & a soon to built gaming PC to a LCD monitor. 22" is a good fit for my room. I like sceptre coz of the port options but am quite confused. I would surely appreciate if you all could give your opinions which of the following would be the best choice. Also, any other recos.

Thanks, Vidur

Yes, I did! doesn't mention any of the monitors on the top. I think the viewsonic & spectre ones are pretty new. excellent work, though.

W/ my limited knowledge, the 2 things that bother me are: -
1. the correct inputs.
2. any good/bad personal experiences.

Thanks, Vidur

The main issue with using Wii on an LCD is the fact Wii only supports 480P max... so you'll be at the mercy of the LCD's scaler (480P = 640x480). I can tell you Wii does not look very pretty on my NEC 20WMGX2 LCD (using Component cables) when compared to my Sony XBR CRT HDTV. Good luck.

I thought the Sceptre looked great and loved the HDMI port but I have read it has issues with ports along with backlight bleeding and other things. I think both Acers are the same just different colors so if you go with Acer get the cheaper one if color doesn't matter. I have my eye on the Silver/Blk Acer.

The Viewsonic I wouldn't bother with unless you need the Ipod port and stuff as thats all your paying for as far as the price.

Probably the same monitor just $60+ cheaper.
