the sony would probably be my choice. on the other hand, anything 15¨ is poo for gaming because of the size, so instead of going tft i'd get a high quality 17¨ crt, or save up more money and get something even better - like a samsung 19¨ crt.

Remember that a 17" tft is about the size of a 19" crt.
Go for the "classic" monitors, you'll save some cash, an save yourself the image quality problems.
I had a chance to sit in front of a "top of the line" 17" 16ms NEC tft, but you can still feel that something's wrong.
And I really couldn't stand paying so much for buying obsolete technology :thumbdown:

I have a 17inch viewable NEC CRT, one of the nicer NEC's. I have had no problems with it and have loved it over my family's 16inch viewable dell flatpanel. Flatpanels arent even comparable to CRT's. The picture quality and response time in a CRT is much faster. Who needs to spend 200-500 extra dollars just to get a smaller monitor that is on a desk!!. Either way, monitors are rarely moved, so why not get a huge tank?

Seems Jdub22 posted a nice link. You cannot go wrong with that crt for the money.
It seems to fit your price range.

I do not know if low is a good company-I live in the USA.

I went from a 19" CRT to a 17" LCD. It was one of the best things I have done. LCD's scared me for gaming, but this one has 12ms response time, so theres NO ghosting. It freed up so much space on my desk and It dosn't weight a ton. I guess the only downside is its 1280x 1024, but its fine for me. heres a link SamSung 712n http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=htt...%3Doff%26sa%3DG (http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.staples.com/images/products/catalog/products/S0072350_std.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.123compareprices.com/monitors/samsung_monitors.asp&h=200&w=200&sz=13&tbnid=He9axb7p8d4J:&tbnh=99&tbnw=99&start=7&prev=/images%3Fq%3D712n%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26safe%3Doff%2 6sa%3DG)
