    SCEPTRE X20WG-Naga Black 20.1" mini review



    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16824112006

    Sorry for the lack of personal pictures, but my Digi-cam is playing hide and seek. Btw I suck at that game. So far the LCD is pretty dang good for a 20" flatscreen (especially for $199). Has a great contrast ratio of 1000:1 and a very crisp screen.

    So far I have had no ghosting and I've played it on WoW and Battlefield 2142.
    Switching from VGA to DVI has shown great yields. I took a double take when
    I saw the difference. Txt went from fuzzy to crystal clear and WoW, oh man!

    My only gripe:
    1) It has an auto-adjust feature. It's not that bad, it's just... weird. everytime a game loads it starts auto-adjusting.

    All-in-all it is a wonderful LCD.
    I give it a 5/5

    :Remember: The Newegg package does not have DVI cables.
    When installing the DVI cables you purchased, remember to
    hook both connections in as stated below by Sniper. You
    then must install the drivers for the plug n' play monitor and
    you will be all set to unhook that old VGA.

    ive seen somewhere, a guy had to hook up both his vga & dvi simultaneously to the videocard in order to get an output from the dvi. doesnt make much sense but its worth a shot.

    I will try it. Thank you.

    :Edit: Since i am new to the whole LCD scene, I was not aware of what had to be done.
    1) you must have both connections plugged in.
    2)Install the plug n' play drivers.
    3)You are good to go

    I have a 1280x1024 Sceptre and it is basically a piece of junk unable to display black and where colors change when you fiddle with brightness.

    This is my first LCD, and It looks great, hooked into my PC via DVI, and hooked my XBox 360 up in HD through the 360 VGA Cable, also the side speakers arent actually bad, my 360 is hooked up to them.

    No, it means the logo glows when it is on.
