Help finding a £200 +- £40 monitor

I know its pretty irrelevant and unimportant but it doesn't help that the actual design of the Dell just looks plain dull compared to some of the other screens like the Samsung which will just look better!!!

thinking of getting the 23" LG IPS231P its £155 at the moment and is supposed to be the same pannel as the Delll ultrasharp... i don't need this today :P got an exam later..

edit- it can be got for £160ish at a few places, although reviews suggest the responsiveness to be poor... very tempted by the price though.. a good £40-£70 cheaper than the dell... for the same panel..

Yea, the LG seems to use the same panel as the Dell, however it doesn't use any overdrive/RTC technology to increase the pixel responsiveness and thus reduce ghosting (which the dell does use and implements well). Hence this LG isn't recommended for gaming as the ghosting/trailing will be visible when playing games.

Here is a responsiveness review of a similar monitor that uses the same panel as the Dell but no RTC. As you can see the dell does much better in the test and imho is worth the extra cash.

If you don't want to spend the money on the U2311H, then instead of going for a non-RTC IPS I would suggest having a look at this very responsive 120Hz TN monitor. It may not have the same level of image quality as the Dell - but it certainly is very response (very fast response time and zero input lag) plus the 120Hz refresh rate will help games look nice and smooth.
