About this product

The monitor offers USB 2.0 hub with four ports, and is swivel, pivot, tilt, and wall mountable. It has a slim bezel and off-white/silver color.
Our take
I picked up this NEC 90GX² for my retro gaming setup, and it's a solid performer for its age. The 4ms response keeps motion blur in check for older titles, and the 400 cd/m² brightness is surprisingly punchy. The 5:4 aspect ratio is perfect for classic games that don't support widescreen. I appreciate the USB hub and adjustable stand, though the 60Hz refresh cap means you won't be pushing high frame rates. The DVI-D input is a plus, but the 1280x1024 resolution feels cramped for modern use. If you're building a vintage gaming station, this monitor fits the bill without breaking the bank. Just keep in mind it's 19 inches and not ideal for daily computing.
