any idea how much Viewsonic VX2235wm cost?

The Viewsonic VX2235wm should cost you not over RM1300. Try shopping around the 3rd floor of Low Yat and you should be able to get a fair deal. Do wait a little longer, if you want to look for a Samsung model though.

If you're looking for a 19" LCD monitor with both DVI and VGA analog connections together with DVI-HDCP with a 4:3 aspect ratio (non widescreen), the Samsung 932B should be a good choice.

Its design is similar to the Samsung R7 LCD TV series with sleek white piano finish. Price should be slightly below RM900 if I'm not mistaken but please do check around.

Here's a link to the product specification:

If you want a widescreen, I guess the Samsung 940BW should a good choice. But there's no R7 style design.

samsung 932b is 5:4 ratio...

5:4 (1280x1024) is the standard ratio for 19" display.

Oops, thanks for the correction. Anyway this is a good monitor. There's some good reviews over the internet. Happy shopping then!

Your budget of RM1700 should be more than enough for the 22" Samsung LCD widescreen. I guess it should be around RM1500 during introduction. I'll be glad if it debut at a price similar the Viewsonic.

Frankly speaking, I'm not sure. The model should be releasing right now. Its just the matter of bringing it into our shores by the local distributors. So its up to them. The 22" could be the next sweet spot.

i'm looking for a 19" lcd too... what about samsung syncmaster 960BF?? is it worth the price?? coz i want an lcd that's great for gaming..

The Samsung Syncmaster 960BF is good LCD monitor. It has height and pivot adjustments, plus the 4ms (Grey to Grey) response is great for gaming. The only down point here is the 5:4 aspect ratio. More and more games are going over to the 16:10 widescreen ratio.

So if you'll be playing the latest and greatest games, assuming that you'll be upgrading your graphic cards every now and then, a widescreen monitor would be of more value to you. Also of course, if you're into watching movies in front of your PC.

This is not to say that 5:4 would be useless, every game would still support this aspect ratio so its just a matter of preferences for now. If you're doing productivity work, a widescreen would definitely increase your efficiency since you could put up two documents side by side or working with two software side by side without the need of minimizing.

weat about samsung 940bf?

Bad luck for me I guess, if I am not mistaken, it was written on the box that it was made in China.

anyone` ?

no, it's definitely not worth for it's price...
a 19" TN panel for RM1.5k ? (boasting it's response time? & just by adding a pivot feature?)
even a RM900 lcd... TN panel.. got 2ms GTG response time..

if you really want a 19 incher... then you might wanna consider the samsung 971p which costs around Rm1.3k ... which comes with S-PVA panel.. , nice design, pivot.. , glossy outlook and so on..

By the way guys, where does all your 2007wfp Dell monitors made from? Coz mine is from china, and it is A02 spva panel. So if yours are made from other country then I might specify that for my replacement I would not like a monitor produce in china.

Geesh, I never knew the 960BF cost RM1500. Thats too expensive if its really a TN panel. The specifications seems pretty normal too. Any idea why it is priced as such? That way, the 940BF could be better then.

Anyway I know that even a RM900 LCD TN panel could give you a 2ms response time but usually they fall under the 6bit panel with/without dithering. That usually explains the fast response. I'm not sure if the 960 is a 8bit panel but its definitely overpriced if you're just interested in gaming and the usual PC experience.

Anyhow, thanks for the heads up in the pricing.

i hav a doubt regarding the lcd Response Time(ms)
