Here is my review..
The 1912W is a great budget widescreen 19". Colors are sweet.. response time is 8ms, wiewing angle is also sweet. It has DVI and Sub-D, I use the DVI to connect to my PC and the Sub-D to the X360, hence I eliminate the need for a video switch/selector. Played a couple of DVD's like Revenge of the Sith n Gattaca, nice color reproductions and fast image turnaround no noticable lags. Dvix files also seems nicely shown. The only downside is that there will be a little black bar on top n bottom even the Movie is in widescreen format n the player is set to show in original aspect. This is because the 1912W is 16:10 and not the normal 16:9 widescreen ratio you tend to find in other widescreen displays. Nonetheless is a small thingy to me. Games on the X360 are gorgeous man. Its breathtaking to finally go to resolutions like 1280x768. Which the 1912W will do. Its all good man, PGR3 loooks stunning n Joanna Dark is amazing.
For those on a budget.. Think bout it..
Cheers all.

^ ya normal VGA cable coz the V1912W got DVI n VGA input so u can use bot at the same time n press the button (2) to switch between both displays..
Provided that your PC uses DVI then u can switch the inputs from the LCD itself.
IMHO, GET the V1912W n GRAW, the FNR3 can wait..
