NEC launches 4ms 17'' and 19'' LCD displays

NEC has launched three new MultiSync GX2 LCD displays, the 17" and 19" one have a response time of only 4ms and the 20" one has a response time of 6ms.

With NEC's patented OptiClear DVM screens, the NEC MultiSync 70GX2, the 90GX2 and the multi-function 20WMGX2 displays produce images with sharp color and vivid clarity. And, with Rapid Response times of just 4 milliseconds (6 milliseconds for the 20WMGX2), these monitors deliver video and gaming images with smooth, crystal-clear quality.

While the new 17-inch NEC MultiSync 70GX2 and 19-inch 90GX2 enhance the front-of-screen experience, the 20WMGX2 redefines it. With a contrast ratio of 1600:1 and an integrated TV tuner in a wide-aspect format, the 20WMGX is primed to become the premier vehicle to enjoy wide-format entertainment.

The NEC MultiSync GX2 Series displays also feature a popular integrated four-port USB 2.0 powered hub that allow users to easily connect to video cameras, high speed gaming peripherals, storage devices, digital cameras, PDAs, keyboards, mice and more. Controls for the GX2 Series monitors are designed to be easy-to-read and use. The On-Screen Manager (OSM) design provides clear and easy to understand menus, while the joystick-like NaViKey OSM control allows for intuitive navigation and effortless set up and image optimization.

The GX2 line of monitors come with all of the outstanding features of its relatives, including DVM (Dynamic Video Mode) for the 70GX and 90GX2 and A-DVM (Advanced Dynamic Video Mode) for the 20WMGX2 as well as a stylish, thin-frame design with tilt and swivel. Because the 20WMGX2 display boasts multimedia performance, it has a host of additional features such as coax, S-Video, composite and component video inputs, a remote, Picture-in-Picture display, and a speaker bar with dual 5-watt speakers.
