Recommend me a 24", 27" monitor

[Walowiz]

I'm after a 24" or 27" monitor for general home work use. I'm currently wading though the online reviews and deals, wondered if anyone here has any recommendations ?

Specs wise, connections: HDMI, DVI, maybe Displayport. resolution: HD.

I went with a Samsung TV/Monitor. Multi HDMI, Scart, Component, TV tuner, no buttons - all touch sensitive (so very clean lines), super thin and all for £300 and it doubles as a TV. I think mine is 32" just because they were doing a deal but I use the 27" version at work and it's great.

HTH

H Mav, Thanks for that, it sounds like it will more than do the job, do you have a model no for the 27" ?

Not too sure I've got the room for a 32".

thanks

Any 1080p tv will do a good job so long as you don't want to do gaming on them because they don't have the refresh rate that a dedicated monitor has. You will get one for £100-£150. As soon as you want massive resolutions and gaming refresh rates though then you need to look at expensive monitors. That said your also looking at expensive graphics cards as well.

I got a 32" sony tv for upstairs that I have my Revo connected via HDMI too and I use it for XMBC.

I got it from here,

Manufacturer refurbished, but you get a 12month warranty just like any other shop.

I have an Acer V234H, which I think is now superseeded. I paid £149 for it, and am seriously impressed. How about this one:

but you'll need a new graphics card

Have a look at pcadvisor.co.uk

I bought a 24" hp based on a review and like it a lot

Don't bother getting anything that has a lower resolution than your GPU output.

What's the point?

Hey Kaister, have you seen one of those monitors from Korea ? If yes, are they any good ?

Specs look unbelievable for the price.

Dell 2412M

Review here: http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/reviews/dell_u2412m.htm

Did much trawling reviews & prices etc. Very happy with the screen for office, web, games & movies.

Good price here, but do shop around...

Did a lot of digging before ending up with an Asus, 27".
Ridiculously fast refresh rate. Very good quality. Good price.
