ViewSonic's new 19-inch VX924 and 17-inch VX724 LCD monitors feature a blistering fast 4 millisecond (ms) average video response time across the entire color scale.

With typical "fast-response" displays on the market today having an average gray-to-gray (or intermediate level) response time of 30 to 35ms, ViewSonic's Xtreme LCD lineup provides response time performance up to 8 times faster. They are ideal for extreme gaming, viewing DVDs, watching television, and even traditional computer usage--such as rapidly scrolling content within a Web site or a document.

"Achieving the best results with gaming, streaming video and motion application usage has long been the domain of CRT technology," said Jennifer Gallo, research analyst, IDC. "With manufacturers incorporating better technology, such as faster response times, we should see more of a shift toward LCD displays for these demanding applications."

The VX924 and VX724 are the first desktop displays to combine ViewSonic's proprietary Dynamic Structure and Amplified Impulse video response acceleration technologies to support rates of up to 250 frames per second across the entire color scale. This advancement produces superior front-of-screen performance for motion video, since the majority of video transitions on games and digital entertainment occur within these intermediate ranges.

The displays will be available in the second quarter of 2005 through traditional ViewSonic resellers, distributors and mail order.

LMAO!! That was funny.

I don't think ViewSonic makes their own panels, so it could be a Samsung or LG.Philips inside. If thats the case, I expect the price to be pretty reasonable actually.

Thanks for the heads up Ioman. I've been thinking of upgrading my clunky CRT for some time, this will be a model I will consider. :)

I know Dang is using his Dell 20-inch widescreen LCD for gaming and he says that monitor does a great job. You can get that for under $500 too. Might be worth looking into as well.
