Dell UltraSharp 1905FP (Gray) 19" LCD Monitor

I bought this monitor for CAD. I am taking a course in AutoCAD and I needed a home work station for practice and homework. This panel is slow so it is not good for gaming, movies or video editing but it has great color so it is well suited for CAD and photo/pictorial graphics. I use it with an older Dell Precision 360 with 3G RAM that I retrofitted with an nVidia FX3000 video card. Most fast panels are 6 bit with 16.2 million color resolution. The lesser amount of colors allow faster response time between refresh cycles. LG uses a 6 bit panel with their f-engine chip to simulate the color response of an 8 bit panel while retaining speed. I have one of these LGs and it works well but the color is still not as true as the older, slower Dell 8 bit panel. I have done side by side comparisons. So it is a trade off at least in the $200 price range. Color or speed. Sure there are faster high resolution professional graphics panels available now but at a substantially greater cost. This does the job that I bought it for and the price was right.
