Bottom end of your budget would be something like this: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MO-028-AS&groupid=17&catid=510&subcat=

Top end of your budget you could get this monitor Good contrast ratio: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MO-082-IY&groupid=17&catid=510&subcat=

Both monitors are full HD monitors so would be good for the Xbox for decent game quality
and they would be good for watching your movies and stuff on them as well.

I know you are looking for a 24" but thought I'd suggest a 23" IPS that has HDMI. Not read any reviews on it, but for the money you're getting quite a bit of monitor.

£209.99 Asus PA238Q 23" Professional ProArt Widescreen P-IPS LCD Monitor - Black [PA238Q]

Recent ocuk thread on it: http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18331819&highlight=PA238Q

Seems like mixed feels as some panels have backlight bleed issues. Providing you check it when it arrives, looks like a very good buy.

I'm looking for one too, to go with my macbook pro, and my xbox 360.

To get sound through a turtle beech headset for the xbox 360, would the Asus ProArt linked above be able to work?

Would be great to hear back

Thanks.
