Spec me a 27" monitor please

£200 is about the limit so narrows it down a lot.
Any input/ideas please?

For 1920x1080 there is only one for £200, but it is really worth saving for a 2560x1440, and they are getting cheaper, that is if your computer can handle one gaming.

1 x DGM IPS-2701WPH 27" LED Widescreen Professional Monitor - Black £319.99
1 x BenQ G2750 27" Widescreen LCD Monitor - Black £199.99

Ive not got a great card (HD6770) but I will upgrade when the 8000 series comes out. Probably an 8870ish depending on price.
I saw that they have some B grade ones to.
Its never easy choosing things hey.
Thanks for the advice btw

Oh and also what are the better makes of the cheap monitors?
As in BenQ, acer, AOC, hanns g, viewsonic etc

This BenQ GW2750HM is a much better monitor and easily worth the extra £16 or so. TFT Central review, out the box is not great but it is well worth following the hardware calibration guide and downloading the profile as I ended up with a terrific picture. The blacks and contrast are amazing and as its an AMVA panel its way better than TN and almost as good as Ips, no input lag and a very decent 4ms response time, excellent connectivity and warranty. If you can wait this monitor regularly makes an appearance on TWO at £179.99 which is a steal.
