The FPD1930 is not a particularly bad LCD monitor, its just that there are so many other LCD displays in this price range that offer considerably more "bang for your buck". The FPD1930 has limited adjustability, below average performance, especially for hardcore gamers and a relatively high price tag. If we were to recommend a 19" LCD monitor in this price range, based on our tests we would have to go with Samsung's 192T. But if you currently have a Gateway system, do little gaming and would like a new monitor to match, the FPD1930 should fit the bill quite nicely. Just be forewarned that you are paying a premium to have this monitor match your Gateway system with no further benefits.
