Introduction

The Hyundai B90A belongs to Hyundai’s B-Series which primarily aims at price conscious buyers. Being priced at just below 300 Euros, the 19 inch B90A is in fact situated in the very price range that many members of our message board often set as their upper limit for a 19 inch display. There is a second variant of the Hyundai B90A with the only difference of having a silver stand and a black bezel.

We now want to closely examine the Hyundai B90A’s qualities for everyday tasks such as working, gaming and playback of DVDs.

All results issued in this review have been established using the analog input. Our test bed ran with a Gainward PowerPack! Ultra/2600 Golden Sample and a Sapphire Atlantis Radeon 9800 Pro graphics card.

Scope of supply

The scope of supply comprises all of the essentials for operating the B90A. The display is accompanied by a VGA cable, a power supply unit, a power cable, a short manual and a CD. The CD contains monitor drivers and a detailed multilingual manual in PDF format. There is no detailed manual in printed form included, something which, unfortunately, has become common practice among manufacturers nowadays.
