OK, now at last I've bought a new low-budget but decent computer (assembled, Duron700MHz, 384Mb RAM, ECS K7VMA m/b with audio&video integrated).
Now with my next salary I'd like to add a good video card and to subsitute my current paleozoical monitor. "So, what's the point in this forum?" you'll say.
Well, of course (since I'm writing here) I'd like to try stereo experience. Following the "best buy" advice on this site I think I'll go for an ASUS (V7100 deluxe combo: it seems to be the best low budget combination to have a good video card + 3D glasses) but for a 17" monitor I'm still not certain about what to do.
My current candidates (and their prices in italy) seem to be:
LG 795FT (about 400 euro),
Philips 107T21 (about 325 euro),
Philips 107B20 (about 390 euro),
Philips 107P20 (about 435 euro).
I'd like to spend as little as possible but monitor quality seems to be an important issue for 3D, so: anyone around has tried one or more of these monitors in 3D and can give me some advice???

Note: of course all the 4 candidates claim a very good refresh rate, but this site says not to trust completely productor claims. That's the reason of my question. I'd rather spend more money for the P20 (that seems to be the best) than saving a few bucks and being stuck with a monitor not good enough for 3D.

Note2: sorry for my being too verbose! :-)
