|  this LCD monitor pretty good buy?
im planning on getting this later this year, n hopefully a second next year: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16824254005
one thing im dissappointed about this monitor is the contrast ratio:
700:1 contrast ratio
should i go for a higher one in the 1000s? or just stick to 700? I just want a good monitor that will give me a good picture at a good price.

The one u put is a good buy, except the brand isnt well known here, this is the one i have http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16824009100
and its good as ****, only 700:1 contrast as well but 5ms response time and looks very bright and clear, great price as well.

no point in posting a monitor that you will be buying later in the year. itll be outdated or a better one will come along by then.
