Need new Monitor

[EyeSeeCold]

The one I have is about to go out. I was wondering if you guys know of any good, cheap monitors with HDMI input/output, maybe 17"-25" . I don't know the range of prices either.

oops I meant this to be in the Lounge, move please?

I'm using an Asus VW246H, and I'm happy with it. It did come with a single dead pixel, but my friend has one that was fine. I could have gotten it replaced with a good one, but I'm lazy and it rarely bothers me (; .

That looks pretty similar, and has great reviews.

Ah :/ I knew it was too good to be true. I was looking for VGA/HDMI, since my comp only takes the former but I want the latter for gaming.

Eh? You mean like the VGA and HDMI ports in the picture?

That monitor in the link I posted has HDMI, VGA, and DVI ports...

*facepalm* I was looking at the specific model in your posts.
Thanks man, I'll check out some more reviews, but the price makes it a keeper.

*nod*. Keep a lookout for newer models, also. I got mine (which also has VGA/DVI/HDMI btw...not sure what you were looking at) and then noticed that I could have gotten a newer model for just like $10 more. I didn't do the research for newer models of the one I linked or anything.

disregard that lol.
It was the same model, but for some reason it wasn't listed in the details. But the pictures showed the inputs.

Nah. It was in the Lounge, but computer hardware specification goes under technology, so I moved it there. And shall again.


Personally, I couldn't advise on such a monitor since you specify HDMI. Mine is a very old black 2nd-hand LaCie Electron Blue 22 CRT , with the old VGA connector --- and oddly enough it is perfect.

I don't think they are made anymore; but according to this page*, The Meaning of Screen Real Estate, they used to cost £1000 new ( I paid about a tenth of that; since most people will sacrifice quality for smaller size, and don't want something weighing 30 kilograms about ).

Wow. My mind can't be trusted, I thought I did that.

I'm trying to save on $, so I wanted the monitor to double as a TV. Thanks though.

Not to be advertising anything but there is a website called newegg that have good product searches and very good reviews on products, just look them up on google. They always seem to help me find the best for what I want to spend, then I can always search for the same product on google to see if it can be bought else where cheaper, but usually aren't.
