Samsung 206bw

[iknownothing]

Hi there, just ordered my new computer
have been wondering what monitor to get and after reading about the acer 24" i have decided to look into a samsung 206bw.
The reason for this thread is for what do you all think the monitor is like??

Spec is below:

asus 8800gt 512mb
ocz StealthXStream psu
samsung 400gb hdd (hd401j)
ocz 4gb (2x2048mb) reaper HPC edition
Asus M2N-SLI Deluxe
AM2 Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 6000+ (unlikely i will overclock but will wait untill all sorted)

Will be looking at a price range of around 190 maximum including vat for a monitor of 20"+
Thanks for taking your time to read this and would like to receive constructive criticism,
Lee

They are very nice monitors. If you do a search here you'll find lots of info and links to other sites that give more info on setting it up, tweaks including colour profiles etc.

I have that model and all I can say is that it's brilliant, no probs or dead pixels, great for gaming (2ms) good colour rendition, go out and buy one

[kalniel]

Yup agreed. If I'd had enough money I'd have gone for one of those.

thats just backed up my idead for it,
thanks you lot for that and just out of curiosity does it have the built in speakers????
otherwise i may have to get ma dad to pay for some cheap and nasty ones

[donkiddik]

It doesnt have speakers, you are talking quality here! I've listened to some monitors that have speakers attached and they ARE really tinny

[iranu]

Spending <&#163;5 on a set of cheap in ear headphones is going to be better than anything coming out of a monitor speaker. I'm always of the opinion that a monitor is for looking at not listening to

Ok thanks,
will have to find some speakers then,
(Asus M2N-SLI Deluxe) Is that board 5.1 onboard sound???
if it is i think i have a clue fo what to look for

I'm using an S-Panel 226bw, and i love it. Best LCD monitor I've ever used. I would assume the 20" version would be of equal quality.

Can anyone link me to some decent speakers for under 60 quid please???
