LCD monitor recommendations for Radeon 9700 Pro needed

I'm looking to upgrade my old Sony 400PS to an LCD display. My only
requirements are 1600x1200 native resolution (or higher) and decent response
time (~25ms I think is ok for a big screens.) I was looking at the Samsung
213T wich is a 21" monitor and the Viewsonic VP201b which is a 20" monitor.
Which one of these is better for general usage and gaming? Any other
suggestions? Or should I just get a nice CRT instead?
TIA

with the prices of monitors and the cost of heating a house these days, i'd go
with the monitor. If you can comfortably lift 50-60 lbs.

why this ? because you have to be careful of the refresh rate with the lcd
flatscreens.



I have two 17" LCD flatscreens 1.) Sony SDM-S71 and 2.) HP-70 both of which
have a 25ms refresh. There are "gaming" LCD's that are faster in ms, and they
cost more. I only use 1280x1024x32 @ 60-75 (60-75hz depends on what program is
reading the parameters) sorry there, but these bad boys were aprox $800 each as
is.



I am thinking about going to a nice 21" crt or larger - next, since my lcd
requirement are fast approaching the cost of the PC box itself.



hope this helps,
