Intel or AMD?

Buy the board that best fits your needs. Decide what you want your system to do them match what is available based on what you want. There are so many variations that offer certain options based on what you want. Yes, some companies make better products but which one is best for what would work for your specific needs is what counts, look at the main use you intend to use the system for. I am not a gamer so I am pretty open for my use. I prefer strictly Video use. But that is just me. Look at the upgrade options in case you have a change of heart. Be wise before you buy anything.

Now i have bundled my tower and seems to be working great|
Now i m looking for a Flat Panel Monitor. What would you recommend?
Dell, LG, ViewSonic, Samsung or HP?

 

[Techymike]

As you stated video was your main idea, do you have a wide screen TV already capable of this? If so use that and do not spend any more money. Dell's just are a higher price of another company product! LG is low grade! Samsung is really nice stuff now! HP is high priced! I run my PC on a 50 Inch Plasma from Panasonic. Mainly because I use the Blue Ray DVD in it to watch movies. It also plays HD movies, even though they are not the norm.

 

[dinesh]

I think Samsung would be preferred .. Instead i will go for a Tv which will help me play movies and will do the job of a monitor as well. Thanks Techymike, thats indeed a good idea!

 

[calhounhusker]

I agree with Mike. Just get a LCD TV.(Samsung IMO)

Get the Dell 23" monitor. It's higher than HD with a resolution of 2048x1152 with an 80,000:1 contrast ratio :O

Dell : Dell Dellâ„¢ SP2309W 23-inch Widescreen Flat Panel Monitor - Black : Displays : Home & Home Office

And the price is pretty good for what it is, too.

I have had an ACER 19" for quite a while now. It went a bit pear shaped a while back, so phoned ACER tech support. Sent it back the same day, and got it back 2 days later all fixed.
Would DEFINATELY buy ACER again.

Have heard a lot of good things about their monitors on other forums aswell.

Samsung SM2693HM

I've got the 24" version of this monitor and absolutely love it. I paid £300 for the 24" one and you get the 26" for less than that at the minute.

 

[Everlong]

Dell monitors are great, and £250 for a higher than HD resolution and 80,000:1 ratio 23"...a great price for what it is.

 

[dinesh]

Well now its time to declare it finally as i have decided

 

[Techymike]

dinesh,

Sounds like you are really going to love the system know matter what you pick and that is really good to hear. There are so many good opinions here from so many talented people. The fun part is it sort of feels like we are are building a new system.
