I bought this thing back at Christmas and have since downsized myself out of the PC this was connected to, and don't really have a place for it any longer.

Overall it's a great monitor and is in excellent condition with no issues. If you're into games or just every day use and the occasional photo editing, this monitor is a great choice. If you're heavy into graphics design or photo editing, then you already know that a TN panel is not going to be accurate enough throughout the color spectrum for your needs, and this is not for you, for that you'll need to tack on a grand or so to the price I'm asking and then start shopping...

Here's a link to the product info where I bought it from CompUSA.

I do have the original box and all that and everything is very clean, were it not 6 months old it would be considered in like-new condition.

They currently have it on sale for $290, their 'typical' price is $329. I'll take $200 for it, this is a helluva monitor for $200.

I don't think I really want to ship this, so right now this is going to be local to DFW polkies only. I'm also open to trades. I'm in need of a CSi5, but I'll entertain any offers.

    Wow! This seems like a great deal and would be great for both computer and TV hookup with HDMI input and built-in speakers. Good luck on the sale!

    I have a 20" LG that sometimes gets ghosting when I play FPS style games, no hesitation, just a trail for a split millisecond sometimes. Is this better? I only ask because I do not know.

    Yeah, it has a 3ms response time and makes an excellent gaming monitor. I do primarily FPS gaming and this monitor is great.

    i have the hanns g version of this monitor which is basically the same thing. i love mine. in fact, i just purchased one for my stepdad because it's $280 shipped at newegg, or at least it was last night, and still may be. for anyone local, $200 isn't a terrible asking price in the least.

    it's got its drawbacks, but for the price, i don't even notice them. i love this thing and won't part with it unless i bump up to that super-resolution or possibly led screens in the future.
