LCD monitor suggestions

[stuartw101]

Im looking for a new lcd monitor for my pc. I would also like to use it for my xbox 360 aswell as watching tv and/or freeview if this is possible? I would also want it to support the 1920x1200 resolution as if im right in thinking it allows use of 1080p res?

My budget is £400 although i would consider going over slightly depending on the suggestions.

Hope you guys can help, thanks.

I bought a NEC Multisync LCD 1990 FX for £150.00 have a look at this monitor via google, it might just be your answer.

Thanks for the replies

I should have said i wanted atleast a 22" and would prefer a 24". That actually leads me onto another question actually Abarbarian, should i get a HD tv or LCD monitor? As i want to be able to use it to watch tv and the pc to play games.

No, you will need a TV card for the PC.

 

[stuartw101]

What about those freeview boxes? A scart to s-video or something convertor.

And yes that tv question i asked was pretty stupid now i think about it

 

[muckshifter]

Just get one of these ...

Dyou reckon that is better than the Samsung stuart linked to , why ?

 

[V_R]

Well i am no expert, they both seem good. The Dell has always good good reviews and has the built in usb ports and memory card slots if you want that.

If i had the choice i would probably go for the dell, but i would do lots of reading before i parted with the cash.

Yeah I would trawl through as many reviews as possible.

The Dell widescreens are always the ones touted as the killers though, but I wouldn't know.

Samsung 19" TFT here anyway
