I would have to say the Dell. S-IPS panel, slightly less ghosting, much better viewing angles, better stand, better input connections.
The viewsonic has lower price going for it. But wait for a good sale on the Dell and it shouldn't be that far off. Dell is definitely worth more money in this case.

I have had both the viewsonic and the dell now, and I have to say the dell is quite a bit better. I was just never quite happy with the vx2025. After I received my third one (after returning the other two) and still having horrible backlighting, and a stuck green pixel enough was enough.
So I got the dell, and the first one was perfect, no weird x-shaped pattern in a black background, and no dead pixels. Also no ghosting either. On top of that it has more inputs and usb. Those of you on the fence between the two, I strongly recommend the 2007wfp. Here are some pics comparing the two: (dell on the right)

On the picture of the monitors playing Troy, why does the Viewsonic show more of the shot?
Dell 2007. Design, and price: well the viewsonic is cheaper, but I definitely like the design of the dell better. It just looks more expensive. Its hard to not base your opinion on the technical aspects, but you have to ask yourself if saving $50 when you buy the viewsonic is worth it. After I got the dell I realized how bad the backlight is with the viewsonic. A black background is very splotchy with the 2025vm. Gaming with the dell is more vivid and there seems to be a hair less ghosting. There are alot more features(usb, composite input, svideo input, picture in picture) that the dell has that is just iceing on the cake for me.
I took the shots at slightly different times.
Man I keep thinking about lag on the conversions of all lcd's and say crt maybe BUT I want something LOL
ok Dell has the 2007WFP today for 374....AHHHHHH
I don't know what to do
will a p5b/6600 conroe with X1800XL 512m drive this thing in games with good frame rates and some eye candy turned on like AA and AF?

Your specs are great for the screen resolution, you'll have no problems. Go to slick deals and grab a 20% off LCD coupon then buy. Problem solvedsparks said:
Even if the monitors were equal, the horrible service of Viewsonic makes this an easy answer in my opinion. Here's a link to my personal ordeal: http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1081598
With that said, and having used both quite a bit, there's no doubt that the Dell is much better. It's a higher quality screen, has little to no backlight bleeding, considerably less ghosting compared to the VX2025wm, has four USB ports, composite and s-video connections, full adustability including height and rotation adjustments, and though it may mean less to some, I love the picture-in-picture abilites - great for watching TV while browsing. That was a bit of a run-on, but you get the idea. The Dell costs a little more, but there's no question as to which is better.
Though, for the record, if my VX2025wm had worked, I would have been plenty happy with it. It's not a bad monitor at all.

Yes, the ultrasharp's are the best hands down

No, the NEC is better for gaming, unless you play mostly older games, then the Dell's scaling is a must.
In the $350 range, I think a lot of people think the LG 204 is the best for gaming. And if you prefer glossy like I do, then the Acer F-20 or 2051w.
