You'll have to research that but look for the ones with 3000:1
contrast and 2mS response time. My son has one and it's fantastic.
Cost us about $325 last Christmas so I'm sure you can get it for the
$250-$285 price by now. Watch for the cables that come with your new
monitor. A few of the newest models are only coming with DVI/HDMI type
interfaces and one required that you spend more money for a VGA
interface cable.

Good luck,
Mark
