think its still worth 189$?

im trying to get an entire new system and i am looking for 3 good cheap 24 inch monitors to run eyefinity

right now i am on a 9 year old dell desktop and the monitor is a 15 inch crt from the mid 1990's lol

LoL!! It would be a definite step up for you then. If you can find them for that price then that's really a good deal. If you can find them locally for that price that would be better. The Q/A was kind of hit or miss with these monitors. Some people got some with excessive light bleed around the edges and some people didn't. I got somewhat lucky with only some slight light bleeding on one of them. It was no big deal for me based on what I use them for.

Why does everyone want to be a youtube partner Shesh... dont you have to be Invited to be one of those? IDK so dont flag me or something I love this video Its the only video i have seen that is the monitor i want to know about

[IridiumVIII]

I'm not looking to make money if I should become partner. The main thing about being partner and the part I'm most interested in is the removal of the 10 minute time limit on videos. Thanks for checking out my vid and I don't flag people.
