    im thinking about upgrading to a new monitor, just im not 100% sure what to get.

    i was thinking about this:

    http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/Produ...oductID=564708

    and i have a budget of around £200, and i woul really prefer my monitor to be around 22" or so.

    cheers

    a lot of monitors come without a dvi cable so watch out for that

    I've had 3 or 4 LG's recently and they all came with cables.

    I recently bought that exact monitor just before I left (im on holiday!) and can say it is an absolute steal at the price LG are selling these. For £200 you cant go wrong.
    What we share with everyone is glum, and dark...

    I recently got the HP 2045 (for a bargain I might add) and that didn't come with a DVI-D cable sadly. However cables can be bought cheaply off t'internet (cablecity.co.uk springs to mind).
    AMD X2 @ 2.6Ghz, X1800XL @ 540/600
