toyotasuprauk Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 I'm looking into buying a 17" or 19" TFT monitor, cant decide which yet. If anyone has any recommendations or can point in the right direction of some web sites, reviews etc please do. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oxygene Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 Depends how much you want to spend. There are so many options available. I bought a Philips 109 (19" panel) it was a bit expensive at £375, but that was a couple of months back. They have come down in price since then.

toyotasuprauk Posted December 15, 2004 Author Share Posted December 15, 2004 Thanks Oxy, One of my favourites at the moment is the Philips 190S5FS its £287 from savastore. Is this the same model you've got? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyJawa Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 What do you want it for? If its gaming then you need to make sure the response time is less than 16ms, single figures is best!............... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toyotasuprauk Posted December 15, 2004 Author Share Posted December 15, 2004 Possibly a bit of gaming. The Phillips mentioned above has a 12ms which seems very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oxygene Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 The one I have got if memory serves (two models look alike) is this one. http://www.consumer.philips.com/consumer/catalog/catalog.jsp?fhquery=fh_secondid%3D190s5fg_00_gb_consumer%26fh_location%3D%2F%2Fconsumer%2Fen_GB%2Fcategories%3Ccatalog_gb_consumer%2Fcategories%3Cmonitors_pc_peripherals_gr_gb_consumer%2Fcategories%3Clcd_monitors_ca_gb_consumer%26&productId=190S5FG_00_GB_CONSUMER&activeCategory=MONITORS_PC_PERIPHERALS_GR_GB_CONSUMER&fredhopperpage=detail.jsp&language=en&country=GB&catalogType=CONSUMER&proxybuster=KYNGACSN5EIB1J0RMRESHQVHKFSEKI5P# or this one http://www.consumer.philips.com/consumer/catalog/catalog.jsp?fhquery=fh_secondid%3D190s5fs_00_gb_consumer%26fh_location%3D%2F%2Fconsumer%2Fen_GB%2Fcategories%3Ccatalog_gb_consumer%2Fcategories%3Cmonitors_pc_peripherals_gr_gb_consumer%2Fcategories%3Clcd_monitors_ca_gb_consumer%26&productId=190S5FS_00_GB_CONSUMER&activeCategory=MONITORS_PC_PERIPHERALS_GR_GB_CONSUMER&fredhopperpage=detail.jsp&activeTab=specifications&language=en&country=GB&catalogType=CONSUMER&proxybuster=KYNGACSN5EIB1J0RMRESHQVHKFSEKI5P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toyotasuprauk Posted December 15, 2004 Author Share Posted December 15, 2004 Its one of these, seems like a good buy. If I decide to go for 19" it will probably be this one. How do you rate it yourself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toyotasuprauk Posted December 15, 2004 Author Share Posted December 15, 2004 Seems like I've almost made my mind up about this Phillips monitor just trying to decide if I should bother with a 19" or just get a 17"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitesupraboy2 Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 Since when has anyone ever gone, thats a lovely small one you got there You seen the bud advert big is everything P.s if you do go 19" check response time some times they go up when you go up sizes, very sneaky!!

toyotasuprauk Posted December 17, 2004 Author Share Posted December 17, 2004 My 19" Philips with 12ms response time arrived this morning from Savastore, very quick service! I cant open it as its half a Christmas present though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
