Screen or graphics card?

**biohazard 76** · 18-10-2008

Since I have just bought a new HD4850, I've obviously considered the CF. But then I came to think of buying a new monitor instead, when I sit with an old 19" CRT, but it works perfectly.

So the election next month is between:
1st, An additional card
2nd, New screen. Have a look at a Samsung 2253LW
3rd, Saving money. Might be an idea if we do not know what to choose.

So what would choose?

When you now have the possibility of CF, then buy a proper screen that can display a resolution of 1920x1200 and then when you get the money buying a 4850 more

Yes, I think it is right. However, the price just a tooth too much. Then enough to save a bit together. Had expected 1680x1050 would have been enough to justify CF with a little eye candy.

You can not use cf in 1680x1050. You get nothing out of it. Buy a video instead. If you can not afford the purchase of the computer city of 3 md it's free..

But try at least a second one, the eternal Samsung.

Well now, it was just mentioned because I like it. But as is always open to suggestions. However, all in well received in 2000 dollars class.

Could it as well, but am of the opinion that I should save some cash. At least when it comes to hardware stuff.

Well if you are just looking for something that, you're just as well served by the screen you are holding now. See you just to save a little more up, so you have around 2500-3000, and then buy a little more sensible screen.
