A Few Upgrades

Aspect · Aug 22, 2003, 03:26 PM

Im looking into a few upgrades. A new mouse , monitor and maybe a graphics card.

Mouse: I was looking towards a logitech , but i dont wanna spend too much on a mouse. So maybe a mx500 i was thinking.

Monitor: I dunno what make , but i want a good perfoming one but as cheap as possible. Ive been looking on ebuyer.com at monitors. CTX , Iiyama , GNR and Relisys have taken my eye because there so cheap. Which are the best?

Graphics Card: I was thinking a 9600 , as i dont wanna splash out too much.

What u guys think? Any recomendations?

The Logitech MX500 is a great mouse for the price, great for gamers as well as everyday users.

KDS makes cheap monitors that seems to work pretty good for me.

I would try to find a 9500np first then if not a 9500 Pro or 9600np/pro

For a great mouse for very little cash w/ tons of features check out the MX310 by Logitech.

I highly recommend Sony Trinitron monitors, too. Refurbished ones, especially the P991, are excellent for the $. Only thing is they have those two apeture grille wires, very very thin but mildly visible wire going across the line at the top 1/3 and bottom 1/3 of the screen.
