Hi All,
I'm looking to upgrade my sons PC monitor from a 19" TV screen but on a pretty tight budget of £110.
I realise anything bought will be a major improvement but am looking to get the most bang for buck.
Intended use in order of importance:
1. He is looking to progress next year into A-level's with a focus on graphics design so could IPS vs LCD be a factor?
2. General PC shenanigans
3. HDMI link to PS3
Hardware connecting:
2nd gen i3 with HD5670 (VGA, DVI-D or HDMI)
PS3 (HDMI or Composite / svideo / component)
I feel I need a VGA and HDMI as minimum.
Monitor musts:
Must be 1980x1080
Must be 22-24" (21.5 acceptable)
Must have a VESA mount 100x100 or 75x75 (I think it would be 100x100 on this size monitor) not everywhere specifies VESA so often it's checking the photos of the product manually!
Currently I am at either:
Lower end:

In description VESA = 75mm but in specs it's 100x100 - either is fine but I think it's 100.
Also will need a HDMI to DVI-D lead for the PS3
Higher end of budget:

This is IPS has all needed connections but has an external power block and one worrying review of bleeding in the corner but I assume that would not be for everyone and would be under warranty anyway
I would realy appreciate it if I could have some critique on the choices or a gentle push towards something better suited.
Thank you in advance
