Thats a two year old concept. Do you know that in the US CRTs are as good as dead. And thats where most gamers exist. Any LCD with a response time of 5ms or less is good enough for gaming purposes.

go for 19 ' Viewsonic with <8ms respns time .
Most 17' LCD s dont have DVI , whereas almost all 19' hav it !

Chk out d ones from Viewsonic @1440 , Samsung @ 14900 , TCL .

If u want something cool (n hav moolah ) , there is a 19' Viewsonic LCD , with an iPod dock . So u can directly play the vids stored on iPod thru it on the LCD;) . At around Rs. 18000.

Also BenQ FP16 .. +S ( dont remember the full name of model ) is a 17' LCD with DVI support. @10250. U can go for it as well .
