Hey,
You might of guessed i looking for a new monitor.
Currently ive limited my choice between these two models
The Dell SP2309W (£230) EDIT Price just dropped down to £210 on the Dell website
Which has
23" Screen
2048 x 1152 Resolution
a DVI, HDMI, and VGA slot
80000:1 Contrast Ratio
Also 4 USB ports and Webcam + Mic built in.
The Samsung P2450 (£220)
24" Screen
1920x1080 Resolution
a DVI HDMI and VGA slot
70000:1 Contrast Ratio
Now the primary purpose of this monitor will be Gaming with a PC, 360 and a PS3 all connected to the back of the monitor.
But also to do 3d work and a bit of photoshop.
The Samsung is cheaper being around £220
The Dell is around £210.
Now the Dell seems better value to go for with its extra resolution and webcam. Plus reviews ive read on it say its got fanastic colour quality.
But i am a little concerned about gaming on it with a Xbox 360/Playstation 3 due to the resolution (whether it will scale properly or not).
Im just wondering what you guys think?
Any other suggestions for a monitor?
My Budget is £250 if your wondering.
