    The Samsung SyncMaster SM226BW 22" Widescreen is a thing of beauty at just over the £200 mark

    Samsung SM206BW 20" less then the SM226BW by about £40, i'd save some money and get thet. 2ms g-t-g, 3000:1 contrast. It's a beauty!

    I've got my eye on the Samsung SyncMaster SM245. I've wanted a 24" for a while now because of the insane resolutions! true 1080P widescreen gaming for just over £300!

    I was gonna get this as my acer 20" WS LCD has died. I used to have a 22" Iiyama CRT which i bought off ebay (reconditioned) like 6 years ago and it still works perfectly.

    However after reading this review im a little unsure http://www.trustedreviews.com/displa...WS-24in-LCD/p3

    If anyone knows of a decent 24" LCD for alround the £250-£350 mark let us know
