Try getting your hands on the Samsung SyncMaster 940BW LCD monitor. It is a 19" widescreen monitor, with native resolution of 1440*900 and, by Agent-001's own admission, one of the slimmest bezels that you'll ever find in an LCD monitor. When I bought (about a year back), it was retailing for 12K, now, I heard that the price range is at 9-10K. So it is well within your budget. Also, it has a gray-gray refresh time of 4ms, and I've played a lot of games on it (like FarCry, Splinter-Cell Chaos Theory, Quake-4) and there's absolutely no ghosting effect, so it is a perfect choice by all means. Go in for it, and you'll not be disappointed (I'm not)

Edit: In case you're wondering about the credentials of this monitor, this was the one which Agent-001 himself bought in Oct-2006:

Samsung 932 makes you pay for its looks...featurewise its pretty medio..you can easily get 5ms,non-dvi,19" ws at around 9k..no need to pay11k (as quoted by delta eripherals 2 weeks back) for this..

dell 198wfp looks a better choice..
just remember one thing..whatever you buy...dont buy a viewsonic

the best monitor in the 19" range is the HP w1907. its just awesome.. awesome looks and performance. Although i dont own it, i have seen it in a HP outlet and tried it out over there.

The only catch is that it costs around 16-17k but the cost is justified if u ask me. some people on this forum own this beauty so if moneys no limit then this is it.

It's the VX series with 2ms which is laden with rtc woes.The VA series is pretty much bug free but remember it is value stuff...not for big time gaming.A friend recently bought a Va1912wb for 8.8k and it's way better than the samsung nw series and LG crap(at least for normal work and movies etc).
