nightwolf Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 I'm after a new monitor, the one my mum bought me for university is perfectly fine, but its a square flat screen and I hate it, although it is acer. I want a wide screen monitor no bigger than 19inch, but I was wondering how cheap I could get ahold of one, I've only really got 150 maybe 200 to play with.

fex Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 Get the Dell 2209WA 22 incher but it has a IPS panel rather than a cheap TN panel, meaning much better viewing angles and colour reproduction. At £185 is amazing value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aimless Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 Is response time an issue, or don't you really care? Also, is 16:9 okay or would you prefer 16:10? I doubt you'll be able to find a widescreen monitor much below 19", to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoogleViper Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 I have an LG L194WS. Seems to be the sort of thing you're after. I bought it for a similar price from Tesco about a year ago. It's a good monitor. Raining don't you have a similar Samsung monitor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoogleViper Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 That's good. And you get free speakers with it as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shorty Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 I kinda don't want it bigger than my tv and my tv is 19inches! Raining any chance of finding something cheaper? Although it does look purdy.. 19" is pretty standard for a widescreen monitor these days. At work we have 12 of them, 2 each, and they only cost about £70 each.

MoogleViper Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 Unless they are better than my lovely logitech ones then they'll be given away Sold on ebay? It'd reduce the price of the monitor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightwolf Posted September 19, 2009 Author Share Posted September 19, 2009 Sold on ebay? It'd reduce the price of the monitor. Thats true, depends on how much the postage is and stuff I suppose. Could always keep it as a spare if my new one ever goes bust etc. EDIT: Thanks Shorty, I couldn't find one I particularly liked at £70, ney mind!
