HEWLETT PACKARD W19

# 19" Viewable Screen Size
# 8m/sec Response Rate
# 300cd/m2 Brightness
# 500:1 Contrast Ratio
# 1440 x 900 Maximum Resolution
# Plug & Play
# 0.285 mm Dot Pitch
# 16.2M Colours
# 356 mm Height
# 440 mm Width

Will that be any good for gaming and videos or will I get motion blur??

Should be fine as the speed is 8ms which is certainly fast enough.. The brightness/contrast and max res could be better.. plus isnt 1440x900 a widescreen res? You may find you have issues playing games in that res, which would make things look shitty..

Make sure you give it a good check over for dead/stuck pixels. And make sure you know your rights regarding returns before you purchase.
I bought a 2ms Samsung, but it had a bright lit pixel in the middle, it was totally unusable because of it. If the pixel had appeared after a month of buying it, I wouldn't have been able to send it back as 1 lit pixel isn't classed as a defect.
So I got my money back, couldn't be bothered to get into it all. But I was probably just unlucky.

Anyway,good luck in your purchase.
