Jesta78,
I suggest you take a trip to your local computer stores and take a look at the monitors for yourself. As you may know it can depend on your personal preference.
People tend to like Viewsonic, Sony, Philips, Hitachi, & a Scandanavian brand...Don't recall its name at the moment.
Personally, i bought a couple Viewsonic pf790s from newegg.com.

My current 17" is not a very well known brand (I think) but it's been great so far. It's an ADI.
The thing you might want to check is to be sure the monitor you get will go to at least a 85Hz refresh rate at the resolution you want to work with.
Lower refresh rates eat your eyes out !
