ASUS VW202NR 20" Is it any good?

As the title states, it is a new item at Newegg, and seems to be great deal 129 USD. This is my first wide-screen monitor upgrade ever. I'm coming from a 19" Dell CRT that only does up to 1280x1024 (although I mostly game at 1152x864) so I'm very new to these large resolution LCD's.

Also I don't need to get anything bigger than 1680x1050, that is a large as I want to get. I don't want to see a huge drop in frames from what I get now.

Anybody got one yet, or have a particular opinion about the quality of ASUS monitors? I'd love to hear all comments.

Unless all you play is crysis, your machine will tear through any game at 1980x1200, ive done it on much slower components (9800gtx+ and a 9850be not overclocked). So anyway, asus monitors are decent, but the price difference between all the monitors in the 19-22inch range is so neglible that I would definitely go for a 22 inch at least, although with specs like yours i really would not be hesitant to go 24inch, the difference between gaming on a 24 inch and a 22 inch is just...night and day.

Thanks man, haha as matter of fact me and my younger brother both play almost nothing but Crysis (a little GTA4 and Fallout 3 on the side
) and I cant get another GTX 260, PSU, and mobo to go SLI anytime soon, so I'm stuck with the single card solution, for now.

The thing is (and I guess you could call me a frame-per-second hound for this
) but I just don't want to take the chance of getting alot less fps at 1980x1200 than I get now at my measly 1152x864 res. Anyway somebody else here pointed out to me the otrher day in another thread, that I could get a 22" at the same 1600 res so I will probably just go for that size instead.

Thanks for the reply and help rep+
