Hey guys, looking at getting a second monitor. I currently have a Dell U2211H so I'm looking for something along those lines, doesn't seem to be many of those available so I'm after something similar in look/style and 'fits' with my current one.

Any suggestions? Budget around £110.

Thanks!
 
My advise is- get an identical one. If you don't want the same monitor then sell the first one and get two new ones.
I currently run 3 different monitors (resolutions, size, panel technology is all different) and although each one of them was carefully picked to be a great performer I can't get pass the different colors or resolution they produce. I even bough a Spider4Elite calibrator and still the colors are somewhat different. It is very annoying.
A good monitors will last you for at least 4-5 years. It is worth making a good purchase.
 
I got a second monitor recently thats exact to the one I have a LG E2442 and the colours are completely different.

The new one has a yellow tint wheras the old one looks perfect, and I haven't been able to calibrate them to look the same.

I thought before I got the second monitor the image would be identical, but unfortunately it doesn''t work like that.
 
aye, sell the one you have now, get more of a different one. i had 2 really old 19 inch lg monitors for about 6 years, added another one that looked the same, but the colour/brightness was way better on it, i have kept all 3 but bought 3 of these too....

cheap and cheerful, paid 300 quid for 3 of them at an event that ocuk were at.

*edit* they werent actually those ones, mine have HDMI ports also...but they look the same
 
Thanks guys, I think I'm going to for two Dell U2312HM's and keep my current U2211H but have it mounted in portrait.
