Spec Me A Monitor

Kidge · 5 Jul 2013 at 17:24

Looking to buy a new monitor after the 15th and was wondering if anyone can recommend one?.

Requirements:
HDMI
at least 1920x1080
<£160
~<24"

It will be used mainly for general PC use however also for the occasional game and movie.

Currently have a Dell 1707FP monitor (which i'm keeping for a secondary monitor) so any upgrade would be good i'd imagine.

About to leave work, but will check back later when home, thanks in advance

Ok, I've had a further look around and read up on some good reviews for this Iiyama monitor. Mainly 7/8 out of 10 which for the price seems good!.

I've never really heard of Iiyama though are they a reputable brand?.

Looking to get this one when I'm back off holiday I think:

There is nothing wrong with your choice. However, within your budget, you should consider this http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MO-063-DE&groupid=17&catid=1425 23" but IPS.

Cool, thanks for the suggestion pryere!

I guess I best read up on the difference because I don't really know what IPS is haha

I was in the same boat a couple of months ago. Have you made your choice yet?
