This is an excellent 20 inch 16:10 1680x1050 LCD monitor. It has very vibrant color. I'm using in a dual monitor setup (Windows XP with nVidia GeForce 9400GT card) with my old Proview 17" (1280x1024 native) and it took me a while to get used to the color being so much more striking and brilliant than the Proview . I haven't had the problem of any dead pixels that other people have mentioned, so I guess I got lucky. It would be nice if it had a height adjustment, but it's not a major factor. The software (forteManager) can control the colors, brightness, contrast etc, which is good, because the button controls at the bottom left of the monitor are not particularly easy to use. I don't play video games with this computer, it's strictly for work, so I can't comment on how it performs with games. It supposedly has a 2ms response time, so it should work very well for games. I'm very happy with this purchase, particularly for the price.
