    I'm not sure if I like the looks of that one.... Although I do agree, the price is astounding!!

    I remember seeing a Sharp monitor, which had a silver bottom bezel... I'll get a pic.

    Saw that monitor at Aria (the showroom) a few days ago. Nice picture and seems to live upto it's 16ms rated response time. Nice value for what it is mate

    I went for the slightly dearer IIyama E435S (£230) but it's a 10ms monster.

    Now all they gotta do is give us correct info on rise and fall times.
    Microdirect are still selling the same types at about £135ish.
    Got one for the grandaughter which turns out to be a noname but equivalent to an LG 1720b or at least the panel is. Good value, no dead pixels and she`s an ardent gamer and loves it.

    £135 may be a great price, but it all depends on how picky you are. My friend at uni bought one of those aria ones, and while he will defend it to the end (as he bought it ;p) I think that its no where near the quality of a decent Ilyama one or a benQ or something. You still get what you pay for with monitors...

    The biggest thing is they aren't as bright as the better quality ones. My aria 17" special is very dull in comparison to the £100 dearer IIyama (E435S).

    Funny....my digimate branded aria 17" is very bright...in fact i'd say it was too bright.

    Step dad has the 12ms 17" that aria do and i must say i like my 16ms one more then i like the ones he got :s

    Sharp LL-172GB 16ms DVI





    Sharp LL-191AB 16ms NO DVI
