so, i'm going to buy a new monitor (used ) and some recommend(s) will be great.

so, i must choose, which one of these:

22” Iiyama Vision Master PRO510 vs. 21” Sony Multiscan G520 Flat

both are same price, year 2001 end. i searched review's and saw that sony pitch is 0.24 and iiyama 0.25. iiyama uses 20.0 viewable size and sony 19.8. both are 130kHz.

both are almost same technology: sony: Trinitron and iiyama: Diamondtron.

which one do choose?

LCD is shitty at games and it does suck, when you look it from right or left.

weird.. cause most of the monitor tests/reviews gives PRO510 max points, but G520 gets like 3/5 - 8/10 etc. and i asked information in other forum and thei said: iiyama is pro one, natural colors - buy this.

hm.. weird ;p

Bullshit! First, the viewing angle is not so important when playing games, and some newer screen got pretty good angles. Refresh rates are now at 12 and 16ms and soon at 8 or 5ms so I don't think that's a problem.

If you really need to buy one of those go for the Sony.
