NEC Display Solutions of America, a leading stand-alone provider of LCD desktop and commercial large-screen LCDs, plasma displays and projectors today unleashed the new AccuSync GX and CX Series of wide-screen monitors. The 19-inch AccuSync LCD19WMGX, the 22-inch LCD22WMGX, and the 24-inch LCD24WMCX displays promise to serve up both speed and performance.

These new AccuSync wide-screen displays replace the award-winning GX2 Series, which set a new performance standard for gaming LCD monitors.
