[Pc_Support] LCD 19" DVI 8ms for $120, GeForce 6200 128MB PCI for $28

[Bryan J. Smith]

Just a couple of things ...

First off, if you don't mind waiting on rebates, there is now a LCD
19" monitor with DVI and VGA, 8ms response time, standard 1280x1024
resolution, etc... for $239.95 - $120 - $20 = $119.95 after rebate:

Secondly, if you're in the market for a PCI (_not_ PCI-Express,
PCIe), but ole' PCI, the GeForce 6200 (NV44) is now available for it
with 128MB of RAM.  Definitely a great card for older systems --
although the PCI bus will limit you severely (and thrash with other
components, so don't do high framebuffer on a server).  It's still
nice for a 3rd  and even 4th head (DVI+VGA out, with a DVI-to-VGA
converter for dual-VGA, looks like S-Video out too), or just for
older systems (better than the GeForce FX 5200 PCI, by far):

One reviewer on NewEgg.COM did mention it's far faster than his
Radeon 9250 PCI.
