#Best Monitor?
We are in the process of spec'ing out a computer system to run 3D Studio
release 2.0, AutoCAD release 12, and Animator Pro. Our intent is to do
architectural renderings and walkthroughs. Our desired output is hardcopy
prints and possibly, in the future, videotape recordings of the
walkthroughs. Our plan right now is to use service bureaus for the
hardcopy prints. We'll wait for the printer prices to come down.
We plan on spending ~$4500.00 total for the monitor and video card. We are
leaning towards the new Hercules SuperStation XP video card. I'm having a
tough time deciding on a 20" monitor. I would appreciate any input on
which monitors you think are best. Picture quality is a priority, within
our budget. I expect to have ~$2500.00 for the monitor. NEC & Mitsubishi
offer monitors with adjustable color settings so that one can match the
monitor colors to an output device. Is this a "must have" option for what
I want to do? Thanks.
