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.
But its not nearly as sharp as my NEC FE991SB(Which is 12 years newer
also).
So I am selling the 21" for $100 plus ****pping. The monitor is a beast and
I
would estimate it weighs a minimum of 75lbs. I live in Middle Tennessee
and
would be happy to set up a time for someone to see it if someone is
interested in picking it up to save money as opposed to ****pping it. Email
me if interested.
