Best monitor for about £150?

wildest_jjk · 13 Sep 2011 at 17:55

Hey!

I am looking for a new monitor to buy two of for a dual screen setup. Basically I was going to buy the U2312HM since seeing the reviews of how good the U2311H was. However I am still having second thoughts about whether or not I can justify the price.

I will be using the monitor mainly for general browsing, work and gaming. Any suggestions?

Thanks guys

I'm also looking for the same bud...

ASUS 236H 120hz monitor
BenQ 2420 ( dnt if to go for the led version or not)

I know a bit about monitors but I'm no expert ... So if somone doesn't tell me those monitors are bad soon... I'm prob gnna purchase one of them... I'm not expecting the bees knees for that price.. But best bang for buck (£)

I also need this bezel for eyefinity... So that's why I chose them too.

I do like the dell u2311 one you posted tho... Cnt find it anywhere less then £180.... That x3 is quite a lot

Is my recommandation, i know it's a bit more stretch with the extra quid, but it's the best bang for buck i know of in that region.

But, really, the ASUS.

Thanks for the responses guys. The Asus 236H Im not really sure what it is to be honest. Is there more to the model number? And I have also heard only good reviews really for the BenQ monitor.

Yer I know what you mean about the u2311. I am considering still buying two of the new U2312HM but I just dont know if I want to spend that much now.

And val that asus monitor does actually look pretty good!

Thanks for help guys!

Does anybody else have any other good monitors for this price point? I am really struggling!

Thanks

I would suggest Acer X223 under that price

Hi thanks for your response, I can't seem to find much about it. Is it quite old?

Thanks

The BenQ EW2420 is around that price iirc and is a pretty decent monitor, though you may experience some lag in gaming

Thanks for the response. That's what I am most worried about, I really don't want any lag in games! Is it known for it?

Thanks

For reliability and ease of use Acer x223w offers the best and it is available now also.
