Tempted by the Dell UltraSharp U2412M 24"

Seeing as Overclockers have it on sale this week for £200 I'm really tempted to get it. I've been wanting a third monitor to expand my programming for awhile now and this might be just what I am looking for.

Has anyone had any experience with this monitor at all? If so is it worth the £200?

Yep. Best £200 I spent in a long time.

Argh my finger is literally on the trigger here

Do you use it with DisplayPort or something else like HDMI?

MagicBoy · 24 Jul 2013 at 02:30

DisplayPort, DVI and VGA all with different things.

No HDMI on that model.

Does it come with a DisplayPort cable? Or better yet a mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable?

I bought a U2410 (not the same model I know) but mine came with a Displayport cable, mini displayport cables I had to source myself.

Your best bet is to ask in the pre-order section of the forums and let OcUK confirm what is in the box. As for the monitor it is excellent, I can't praise it enough, it is very sharp and the colours look amazing compared to my older Samsung monitor. Just buy it!

Great monitor, don't hesitate. It doesn't come with a Displayport cable though.

Really tempted by this too!

hmmm shows as normal price for me at £227.99

Looks like I missed the deal

. Darn I wish I didn't get paid on the last Thursday of the month.
