So I've been thinking about upgrading to a new setup with triple monitors and was wondering which displays would be good for that. I know IPS display because of the viewing angles but anyone know any good monitors that has great viewing angles and response times?

Budget of 200$ max preferably. With some basic features, no need for swivel and stuff like that.

the only thing is there are no displayport, so if i get those I would need to get adapters to be able to use 3 inputs

following with interest. im considering the same.

 

have been using dells for as long as i can remember, and always in a dual screen config..

however, the center bezel is getting to me.

 

i have been eyeing the relatively cheap asus MX239h. but ive read reports that the black levels are not great and issues with blue tinge across the panel with age. hmm

I'm using a benq 120hz monitor with a secondary display, i want to upgrade for the reason that i switch back to 60hz for a while and only noticed a slight difference that after a while disappeared on me and i need the space of 3 monitors for productivity ;) ,lol

thats cheap! its $321 AUD. thats with 30% off that comes around once every 6 weeks or so for this item.

that probably translates to $350 USD

 

yeah i would have no use for the stock stand as a triple monitor stand would be required to get the correct height and have the panels side flash up against eachother.

but still, with a good product that is this monitor, well worth the money at the prices youre seeing

hopefully you'll get more suggestions here as im interested as well.

yea, dells would be my first choice but they are more pricey than the others - but rightfully so.

i used to do color critical work and bought monitors that were up to the task. i dont any more but its hard to go back to something inferior to what you're accustomed to.

I found this monitor: Asus MX239H. Looks nice and has really thin bezel. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824236310&cm_re=asus_MX239H-_-24-236-310-_-Product

And this one too. Asus VX229H http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824236363&cm_re=asus_VX229H-_-24-236-363-_-Product

I finally got the acer h236hl, great monitors. Just had an issue of lining them up... like all multi monitors when using built in stands. The bottom bezzel built quality is not that great... the frame seems to not be glued in fully/correctly, this goes for all 3 of the monitors(just a warning to whoever buys this monitor)
