Product Shot 1 The Pros:Bezel - doesn't use a glossy finish. Mine was $89 @ Staples Sep 2011. Long manufacturer warranty - 3 years.

The Cons:No cons for the price !! Not Full HD compliant - only capable of 720p video playback. Poor sounding built-in speakers.

The Acer G205H is a mid-grade 20" LCD monitor designed for high definition gaming and cinema applications. A unique 50000:1 or 8,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio option combined with a 5ms total response time ensures the G205H provides what Acer claims to be "crisp and clear" image quality.
