Looking for a new monitor

[stocky]

can anyone recommend me a good 24 inch monitor? i was looking at dell monitor's, but the one i want is around $700, as it has all the extras like usb ports, card readers, extra outputs. any other brands that still have good features but are good value?

Nope - the Dell you're looking at is still the best value for money 24 inch on the market IMO. I got two of em!

If your in vic, Try centrecom.com.au - Home Arseholes to work with, But they have the best deals i have seen in Melbourne.

ok cool. i use a 22 inch dell at work, dell laptop at home, and all my mates use dell monitors so theyve got a good reputation with me so far. theres a lower spec model for $400 i think. basic model though.

He's not after the best deal on a 24 inch. He wants to know what the best value for money 24 inch is with the features he likes.

If your after quality, best resolution, no dead pixels go for samsung. Its not the cheapest though

Dell monitors use the Samsung panel

another 2x dell customers here, happy, they have good warrenty to. next day at your home

Dont go viewsonic, they are poor quality and will leave you with sore eyes in no time.
Ive got an acer, I got it for nothing, and I cant complain, works perfectly, keep in mind I may be infront of it from the time I wake up to the time I go to bed, and have never got sore eyes from it.
User Dell 22inch widescreens at TAFE, seem like a great screen, though I do notice after a 3 hour class my eyes are a bit sore, not the case when I have my 6-7 hour class on the acers.

If thats the case then yeah go for a dell. I hear their warranty's are really good.

Which he could find on there website.

Not 100% on a 24" but my 22" LG I cannot fault. Look at their new range, great value for money if you don't care about pointless things like card readers and crap.

[stocky]

thanks guys. it wasnt the card reader and stuff i cared about. more the extra inputs like display port, hdmi, etc. i think im gonna go with this one Dell 2408WFP UltraSharp? WideScreen Flat Panel Monitor

Excellent choice mate! You wont be disappointed.

[holden26]

if you don't mind a 22 inch i would recommend the asus vw222s only 300

[stocky]

im using a 22 inch dell at work now. its good, but i would prefer a 24. mostly for rfactor and race sims. my g25 doesnt suit my current 17inch monitor too well at the moment haha
