    Anyone using the analog input for 2001fp instead of DVI?

    If you can afford to buy 2 2001FP's, then you should be able to put down a little cash to make both work on DVI, no? ;)

    17" LCD for mom

    Order from Dell when they offer discounts or you get your hand on a coupon. Which monitor, however, I'm not sure. It depends on the discount offer I suppose. The Dell 171FPb should be a good choice though.

    VP171b vs. 1760nx

    They both use the same panels. The difference is in the bezel (and the rotation, etc. thereof) and also in the fact that the VP171b includes a DVI cable wheras the 1760nx does not. Also, if you prefer one's warranty to another, there would be a difference. Visual performance wise, there...

    Do all the 16ms LCDs have a AU panel?

    Most people love their 2001fp's. But they are relatively new compared to the VP171b, hence my use of "fully prooftested". I definitely remmeber multiple threads on the uneven display brightness of the 2001fp.

    Do all the 16ms LCDs have a AU panel?

    Most people here who own the VP171b have nothing but praise for it. Its pretty much the #1 most reliable gaming LCD out right now. There are other up and comers, such as the 2001fp and the 172x (I believe this is the model - from Samsung) but neither have been fully prooftested.

    VP171b question about Verticle alignment

    I have noticed no ghosting at all. But all I do is watch a few movies and play games like War3, nothing intense.

    VP171b question about Verticle alignment

    1) How do you rotate it? I am using ATI Catalyst 4.1 drivers and can't find the option to do so anymore (I had previously done it with other drivers but I can't remmeber which). 2) Is the performance still sluggish when rotated? Is there any known fix? Thanks yall!

    THE BEST 17" LCD - with gaming in mind - money can buy

    I personally run at about 40% contrast and 80% brightness. Works great for me.

    Cheapest reccomended 17" lcd ??

    Response also affects movie playback. If there is quick action in the video, a lower response is still better. Though as you said, a 25ms panel would probably be sufficient, as well as a non DVI monitor. My tip is to check out dell's supply and buy one when there is a sale.

    which one? vp171b or 1800fp?

    I own the VP171b and love it. No problems at all, and plenty big. Plus, I dont like the fact that the 1800 is bigger, yet has the same resolution. That means that the images are bigger. I personally almost wish the 17"s had a higher res so I could make everything smaller. 18" at 1280x1024 = bleh...
