Which monitor to stand the test of time.

[Nick F]

I currently have a 19inch CRT and its great but I want to go own the TFT route and maybe even get a dual setup. I currently have a 9800pro but will be upgrading my PC sometime latter this year so the monitor will have to be compatable with future video cards.

I am not quite sure about the connections at the back of TFT's.

Currently I am looking at two choices.

having 2 x Dell Ultrasharp 1905FP 19" for £500

or one

Dell Ultrasharp 2001FP 20" for £385

Which should I go for?

Surely a few people owe you a favour over the Dell BOGOF offer?
I'm sure one of them will sell you their spare for a good price.

As for which option, it really depends what you want to do.
1600x1200 single screen is fine for most things.
2 x (1280x1024) screens is better if you often run 2 big apps side by side.
