Looking to get my first half-decent monitor. Resolution should be 1080p, 60Hz or above. Will sacrifice response time (up to 6 or so ms) in return for good colour reproduction, I'll be doing a lot of work (and media consumtion) on this.

Thanks in advance :)

I currently use the BenQ GL2460HM. I like it. But I recommend to save up to a Dell Ultrasharp U2414H or so.

Good call, they look nice esp. the stands.

Agree with @SuperStroopwafel, save up for a Dell Ultrasharp U2414H. They're £183.59 minus shipping at AriaPC (mind you, as I recently discovered, shipping at Aria is REALLY pricey so just go with £187 off Amazon UK)

Anyone know if there's any weight behind the colour issues with the U2414H when using an nVidia GPU? Because I've seen it crop up on a couple of forums.

 

-edit- dw, I looked into it and it seems like a bit of messing about in software at most. U2414H ordered, will do a mini review when it arrives. :)
