Hi,
I set out to do a good deed and help my father-in-law buy a screen for
his new PC. That was before I realised how many models there are on the
market!! I have managed to narrow it down to 2 that are exactly the
same price (even when postage is considered) but need help to determine
which is the best.
In terms of usage, my father-in-law is unlikely to use it for playing
demanding games like Doom 3 or GTA (he's a retired vicar!!!). More
likely, he will just be working with word, browsing the web and sending
emails. The only other thing he may do is dabble in a spot of video
editing.
One point is that the PC comes with an NVidia GeForce 5200, which I
think supports DVI.
The 2 screens I've found are:
Digimate L-1916
Resolution: 1280 x 1024
Colours: 16.7 million
Brightness: 250 cd/m2
Contrast: 700:1
Max scan frequency: 79 x 75 MHz
Response: 16ms
Viewing angle: 170 x 170
Pixel criteria: 7 bright sub-pixels, 7 dark sub-pixels, or a
combination of 7
Tilt adjustment: "Bad"
DVI input: Yes
Video Seven L19PS
Resolution: 1280 x 1024
Colours: 16.7 million
Brightness: 300 cd/m2
Contrast: 500:1
Max scan frequency: 82 x 76 MHz
Response: 21ms
Viewing angle: 170 x 170
Pixel criteria: bright <= 3 ; dark <= 3; subpixel total <= 7
Tilt adjustment: "Good"
DVI input: No
Can anyone offer any advise re. which would be the most suitable?
Many thanks in advance,
Steve
