    Cheap, Good 24" 1920x1080 Monitor?

    Looking for a cheap, good 24" 1920x1080p res monitor for meh PC.
    Also, though by no means essential, a usb port(s), speakers and a 3.5mm jack port would be nice (or one of them).

    I have found these two which seem to both be good contenders:

    and

    I'd spend a little more and get http://www.amazon.co.uk/LG-24MP55HQ-.../dp/B00HYZXG82 for £121

    It's an IPS monitor so it will have better colours and viewing angles. It's also got 3.5mm jack port, but no USB.

    IPS is definitely the way to go unless you're a hardcore gamer. This Benq monitor gets a good review, & is £104 at Ebuyer, apparently:

    http://www.trustedreviews.com/benq-gl2450-review

    http://www.ebuyer.com/407360-benq-gl...u-9h-l7ala-dpu

    It doesn't have USB ports though. If you want such extra features, Dell monitors are good value IMHO.

    Edit!
    -----

    Should've read the review closer - it's not IPS after all

    http://www.ebuyer.com/510163-acer-23...r-um-qg6ee-001 That's a hell of a deal. 24" IPS for £95!

    It's a type of panel.
    There are three main technologies TN,VA and IPS.

    IPS is generally better on colour and viewing angles.

    TN is the cheapest, but the best for hardcore FPS gamers.

    I might be tempted to take a punt on this:

    If USB ports are important I'd say this is an excellent choice:

    It's an AMVA+ panel which gives it excellent colour and better contrast than usual.

    TN is not as good on colour and viewing angles but better for hardcore gamers??? I don't get it? :/

    Also, that eBay one does look good but recently I have been steering away from eBay for the moment as my Science FOCUS mag (in the tech part ) and stuff are saying that recently there has been an influx in hackers on eBay that harvest your browser's password data when you click buy.

    TN has faster response times, this means little to most people, but gives an edge to competitive gamers.
    Hardcore gamers don't really care about colour accuracy or viewing angles.
