Asus ASUS PG191 BlackSilver 19 2ms (GTG) LCD Monitor Built in 1.3MP web cam & Speakers with 15w Sub Woofer

 

The 19-inch Asus PG191, a pricey but unique gaming LCD, has many unusual qualities. This novelty item costs a pricey $449 (as of January 12, 2007), but if you like your monitors to do much more than just display documents and images, it might be the...

ASUS PG191 Gaming Monitor

 

With superb image quality, the 19in ASUS PG191 LCD will appeal to gamers due to its 2ms response time, built in speakers, and webcam. However its size...

Excellent image quality, 2ms response time, Superior sound quality, easy to use, built-in webcam

Fairly bulky, not widescreen

It's not widescreen, but this monitor delivers where it counts: image, response and sound.

Asus PG191 Gaming Monitor

 

The PG191 boasts a 2ms response time, a subwoofer and a touch screen OSD. But is this gaming monitor as good as it looks?
