Donald, you will find the Garmin panels to be very accurate. The downside is scanning. Steam gauges are easy to glance at while the Garmin is small and can be "washed out" by all the sunlight the canopy lets in. I find that to be true on my 396.
Keep asking questions, there is a great deal of experience here.
