Anyone Have An Acer X193W?
I've been looking around on Newegg for a new monitor, and I found out they have 19" 1680x1050 monitors. The one I'm eying right now is an Acer X193W, and I like the specs, and I especially like the price. Does anyone have this monitor, and can you tell me the pros/cons and why you like it if you do?
By the way, I'll be upgrading from an Acer X191W, the 1440x900 version.

You want your programs and games utilizing everything they can.

Figured I would chime in, got one in today, sits right between two AL2016Ws, and its GOOD! although it has a real flimsy stand and not quite as tall as the specs say,I am impressed, great colors and contrast. No dead pixels...I say its a good deal!

I had two of these Acers. They were okay units. Solid picture, respectable size, okay viewing angles, etc. They didn't do anything that was overly negative or positive in my opinion. I have been spoiled by 22-24in lcd monitors so that could be why I wasn't overly impressed with these units. I gave one to each of my sisters and they absolutely love them for what it is worth.
__________________The only reason I bought them was because I got them at bestbuy for 119 each at the end of May. At that price, how could I resist.

I got one a few days ago and it is amazing. The resolution is perfect for a 19" and the colors look great. Very very slight bleeding at top and bottom. I use it with my PS3 too at 1080p and displays it no problem. I would recommend it to anyone.

It just looks like a good deal to me, more pixels per square inch than a 2560x1600 30", and it's only $159.99 on Newegg.

My friend has one. I'm not a fan of the colors on it, its WAY to bright/vibrant. We tried playing with the settings to and it just doesn't look right. I mean, it's still decent (especially at $120, which is what Best Buy had them on sale for awhile back), but it wouldn't be my first choice.
