Cheapish 22" monitor

[Englander]

I need a new monitor and the requirements are 22", DVI and fairly cheap!

I'm quite keen on this BenQ, it's just what I'm looking for and the only cheaper ones I've seen I don't really like the look of (i.e. there's a cheaper Digimate on Ebuyer I think it is).

Anyway, here's the link: http://www.ebuyer.com/product/147718

I just thought it best to run it by the Hexus community to make sure there's nothing glaringly wrong with this monitor

Thread resurrection! I am also looking for new monitor after my CRT died last night.

From what I can see there is no point not getting an 1920x1080 resolution monitor now. For DVI can you not use an adapter from VGA?

There is a BenQ G2220HD

The LG W2230S's seem to be rubbish. The £124 25" monster from hanns looks enticing but there is a lack of reviews.

I would be interested to know if anyone has any pointers.

And how much of an advantage is 2ms over 5ms refresh rates?

In the end I opted for a slightly cheaper Acer V223W monitor which I'm very pleased with

I've just put my old monitor up for sale in Classifieds if you're at all interested in looking!

I'm looking at this one, very similar to the BenQ Englander was querying, but with a higher resolution.

Does anyone had any experience or knowledge regarding this product?

I have the 24" version of this monitor, it works great. Very low back light bleeding and great for gaming, HD viewing or even browsing/work. I'd recommend you getting the 24 inch. 24 inch is always better

By the way, check out their newest release, it should hit the markets soon, I hope, I want to buy me one

It has true 8 bit color, 3000:1 contrast ratio, and 8ms response time. The stand looks quite large to hopefully balance the screen a little better. The EW2420 has 2 hdmi ports + DVI + vga... an abundant supply of ports

If your looking to buy now I don't think you can go wrong with that BenQ 22", especially as they are now coming down to the £110 mark. Very impressed with the one I recently installed for a friend.
