Need a monitor

post #1 of 9

Thread Starter 
Hi,
I am currently using my TV as monitor so I am looking for a new cheap 24" monitor. I want a minimum resolution of 1920x1080 and I don't really care about what brand it is, as long as it's reliable and good.

I live in Denmark, by the way, so the prices will probably be around 20-25% more than in USA, but feel free to send products from example Newegg, because I'll just find the monitor on a Danish site.

My graphics card is GTX 560 Ti and it's mainly used for gaming, if that matters.

Thanks in advance,
Kristoffer

I'm not ordering from a specific site, I'm just wondering what monitor you would suggest and then take a look at different sites to find the best price.

However if I were to use a specific site I'd probably use www.pricerunner.dk to check the cheapest price available

ASUS VW246H is very well reviewed on Newegg (1600 reviews - 5/5 rating) and pretty reasonably priced here.

Should be a safe bet for a 24" TN panel.

I would probably just go with this also... unless your looking at upgrading your graphics card. Then a Korean IPS may be nice.
