Samsung SyncMaster 215TW - 21in Monitor - [hardware]

Trusted Reviews looked at the Samsung SyncMaster 215TW - 21in Monitor:
Samsung quotes an 8ms grey-to-grey response time, which is not as low as some of the ridiculous numbers that other manufacturers are quoting. But then Samsung has tried to ensure solid image quality by sticking with an 8-bit panel, rather than dropping to a 6-bit panel in an attempt to lower the response time. The result is a full 16.7million colours, as opposed to around 16.2million offered by a 6-bit panel employing dithering.

I've never been particularly obsessive about response time anyway, especially since the quest for the lowest possible number often results in a degradation of image quality. But if you are worried about the 215TW's ability to switch fast enough, don't be. I played a lot of games on this monitor using both a PC and an Xbox 360 and it coped admirably. The Xbox 360 looked particularly good, and if you want an affordable screen that can double as your PC and console display, the 215TW should definitely be a contender for your cash.
In other news, Bit-Tech take a look at the Dell's 2407WFP flat panel:
Providing you get a 2407WFP with the updated firmware and panel, it is a great monitor at a competitive price, and is certainly one that you should be considering it you're looking to get drawn into the marvels of widescreen gaming. This monitor was fantastic for gaming - widescreen gaming is the way forwards and monitors like the 2407WFP make widescreen gaming a reality. However, if you're wanting to play games at its native resolution, you're going to need a fast video card to hook up to it. If you don't already have a fast video card, we will have a few that might tempt you early next week.
