Customer Reviews

My wife loves the ViewSonic 1940
Got this for my little bride, because she wanted to have her own computer. I lowered the screen for easier viewing by bolting the monitor's hinge directly to the round base, it was a simple mod.
The screen is so beautiful, we both love it. A bad screen would have distracted from her interest in learning computers, so this did the trick!
This would be perfect for hi-res games, but for now, she plays Sudoku only.
She loves the hi-res for the grandkid pictures though...

Excellent monitor at a great price
Bought this monitor to replace a smaller monitor in my office. Easy to install, excellent graphics.

A Much Needed Upgrade
This monitor replaced an LCD which was purchased 7 years ago, so keep in mind my review may be slightly biased. Firstly, I am a gamer and the resolution this monitor supports has been a huge improvement over what I have become accustomed to over the years. That, along with the wide screen ratio and fast response time, have transformed my desktop and provided a face lift of sorts. Not only do games and video appear crisper, but the additional space while performing miscellaneous tasks is nothing if not welcome.

It has been mentioned before that in order to drive this monitor to its fullest, an adequate graphics card is required. I'm not sure where the line is drawn, but I have had no issues whatsoever with an x1900xtx, which I purchased more than 2 years ago.

To sum things up, this is a very well made product that performs admirably while maintaining a relatively low price tag. I would recommend this to anyone looking to replace their current set-up or adding a second monitor.
