Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)We moved a few months ago, and it made no sense to haul two 75 lb tube-type monitors to the new home. Those went to a local charity, and once we arrived at our new house we purchased two of these 19 inch Asus LCD monitors through Amazon. I was a little bit concerned about what the image quality would be since our computers don't have display adapters with DVI output. However, even using the standard VGA port, the image quality is far above what we had with the old tube-type monitors. Also, it was great to de-clutter the desktop even more by getting rid of the old speakers and using the ones that are built into these LCD monitors. You get plenty of sound to play back audio and video clips, but if you are into wall-shaking loud bass for video games or pop music, you will want more than what these little built-in speakers can provide.
