Description:
For a 17-inch display, the NEC AccuSync 70 is a stout little performer. While we were a little put off by the weak refresh rates at high resolutions, the AccuSync is an inexpensive and capable monitor for any small or home office. At the recommended resolution of 1,024 x 768, the AccuSync 70 boasts a solid refresh rate of 87 Hz, sure to be pleasing to tired eyes. Its modest dimensions also conserve valuable desk space, and it has one of the skinniest footprints we've ever seen. At higher resolutions, the AccuSync 70's biggest flaw is apparent--weak refresh rates. Topping out at a maximum resolution of 1,280 x 1,024 at 66 Hz, screen flicker is apparent and irritating. This definitely isn't the monitor for power-users. However, for small or home offices, the AccuSync handles business apps, Internet browsing, and day-to-day use just fine. While not necessarily the best monitor on the block, the NEC AccuSync 70 is a good price-for-performance option for those on a budget. --Dan Simpson Pros:
- Inexpensive
- Decent picture
Cons:
- Weak refresh rates at higher resolutions
