Ok chaps,been looking for a new 20" tft.I've done days of research and checked the specs and reviews of most of the 20" available in the U.K. now.However,before i can make a decision,i need to determine if i'm going to go w/s or 4:3.I've never had w/s anything before,not even tv,so i'm quite sceptical.I dont use my pc to watch films,the only game i play is bf2 (which didn't do w/s last i heard),i do a little bit of photoshop,lots of surfing,and benching.So,the question is......Does Thicky want a w/s ?
 
Go and do a bit of window shopping mate and see the things in the flesh (metal/silicon/plastic:D) and then you can decide.
 
Gaming mate is great you get to see more landscape - which may give you and advantage when ur on the prowl deathmatching, chances are your enemy will appear on your screen first before he sees you - maybe giving you the opportunity to kill him 1st?

Also - get one that does 1600x1200 or higher resolution as that helps too.

But primiarily for gaming it's advantageous TBH

Widescreen is also nice for having two webpages side by side, or two word documents etc

Looks like the 2005/7FPW is your best bet.
 
hmm,can't find any info on 2007fpw,w/s is a toss-up between 2005fpw and the berlinea 102035w (which is faster and better colour).4:3 i think i'd go for the samsung sm204ts.
 
Tis done,2005fpw and an x1800 master are on the way to me.Any one for a used syncmaster 171p ?
