    Hi all,

    Can anyone recommend a 22" monitor for around £150.
    Will be used for gaming.

    Re: 22" monitor recommendation

    I've got a Samsung 223bw for £164. A bit more than you want, but it's a good monitor, that didn't disappoint me so far. Stylish, too

    There's also Neovo H-W22 for £141 that people have been praising for that kind of price. Haven't seen it myself, though.

    Thanks for the replies guys. Will look into the Neovo

    Re: 22" monitor recommendation

    Samsung SyncMaster 226bw FTW. It might be a bit more than you're looking to pay, but shouldn't be much more, and it looks sweet. Great for gaming; I love mine, particularly on Crysis and F.E.A.R.
