Is this a good budget monitor?

Hey all, 

 

I'm on the hunt for a second monitor for my setup, currently, I have a Samsung 21.5 inch 1920x1080 60hz one.

 

I do some casual gaming, and quite a bit of 3D and video production stuff, I don't need to worry about colour as I'm not a professional (mostly hobby and school stuff) and on a tight budget. I did want an IPS panel for the viewing angles though. So I found this, the LG 24MK430H-B 24" IPS LED Monitor. It seems a good buy, I intend to use this as my primary display with the bigger screen size and 75hz refresh rate. Has anyone used it? Anything else I should consider?


If you are recommending other monitors, I want a vesa compatible, at least as big as my current

 

Side note I live in NZ so Shipping from Amazon and that is almost as much as the product sometimes! Our main computer parts retailer is PB Tech and they have it listed for around $180 NZD or $120 USD.

Side note 2 - I have an Nvidia GPU so I don't care about AMD freesync, but I'm also not a hardcore gamer or whatever so I just lock my framerate at whatever the panel is capable of.

 

Thanks

I would reccomend the Dell P2217H, it is IPS, 1080P, 60 hz, and has height adjustment, which is not very common on cheap monitors 

check how much is your country
