I recently procured a NEC Multisync XP21 Monitor that's in near excellent
condition. Functionality wise Its in excellent condition. It has a great
picture, and would make an excellent CAD monitor, or monitor for someone
who's eyesight isn't as good as it used to be. I wanted to use this as an
upgrade for my NEC FE991SB monitor. But alas, this monitor is not going to
work out. Reason one is because of this is a Massive 21 inch monitor and I
live in an already cramped 775 sq foot apartment. This monitor, despite
only
having a 2 inch larger screensize, its probably 60% bigger than my 19"
monitor. Reason 2 is because despite the fact that it is a 21 inch monitor
it gets horrid refresh rates above 1280X1024. At 1280X1024 resolution you
can get up to 75Hz refresh rates. However if you don't mind a refresh rate
of 60HZ(Common refresh rates of many lower costs LCD Displays.), The
monitor will achieve up to 1900X1200 at 32Bit color. I recommend not going
above 1280X1024 if you're buying it for gaming. It looks good up to that
point.
