Help choosing a 24" Monitor please

Afternoon all,

I am after a 24" monitor, my budget is up to £150.

It will only be used for day to day office use, occasional light gaming and some movies,videos etc.

I like the look of these two:

Is there anything better for the money? And which of the two is better? I cant seem to find too many reviews online for the 2nd option.

Thanks

If you don't mind losing 1 inch, there is the LG IPS234V-PN

It is IPS and I've seen it for around £130 online, a excellent proposition imo.

Thanks for that.

Is IPS better then? sorry but I have no knowledge of monitors!

I have had a look and it seems to have quite a high response time of 14 ms.

Is that a bad thing for my intended use?
