    Well guys new egg has a bunch of video cards but to be honest with you i dont know what to look for other than price and DVI. I need one that is under 100 dollars but doesnt have to be to fancy just for my new 19 widescreen I just got i dont want an analog signal anymore! thanks post a couple links for me to what you recommend.


    Remeber more expensive is not always better!!! haha

      i am using the stock sony one my vaio came with several years ago.

      I dont really plan on doing anything big and very very minimal gaming.

      I really dont even need one but just figured might as well upgrade to dvi.

      My PC doesnt recognize the new monitor i uninstalled the old one and did a reboot and it read the new monitor as the old one. The screen doesnt seem as bright as it should it keeps say reccommend resolution 1440X900 but my pc wont alllow me to change it to that bc it doesnt recognize it.

      I dont know anything abot the DIRECTX or MEMORY INTERFACE

      can you just recommend soemthing

      I just want a digital signal and something good for web surfing mostly
