Hi guys!

First of all, my secondary monitor just broke, and i need a new one. i haven't got that much money, and its very importaint for me to get a 27" screen.

i found this 


Samsung 27" LED 27SC350
Specs:


Display

  • 27"(16:9) Screen Size
  • Display Brightness (Typical): 300 cd/㎡
  • Mega ∞ (Static 1,000:1) Dynamic Contrast Ratio(Typ.)
  • 1,920 x 1,080 Display Resolution
  • Response Time: 2ms (G2G)
  • 170°/160° Viewing Angle
  • Display Colour Support: 16.7million

Power

  • Power Consumption: 40.0Watts
  • 0.5Watt Stand-by Power

is it any good?
 
i know it isn't the optimal solution, and i am aware that it won't be as awsome as my main display PX2370, but i mainly use it for watching youtube and maintaining my youtube channel, so the main usage of this screen will be ~online surfing, a little World of warcraft and writing.

The price:
Its ~80usD less than the next cheapest, the 
Philips 27" LED 273E3LHSB, which makes it the cheapest 27" on the danish market right now.

Down to the bone, can this Display suit my needs?

Thanks in advance =D.

If you can find it then the gw2760 is pretty awesome for its price, i think 27inch might be a bit too large for a side monitor but thats down to you. Also 1080p isnt a good experience for everyone, personally i dont give two sh** about the pixel density but that is down to the person that is viewing it, i might like it but some other people may not like it.

its because i normally open two windows at the same time, but it's hard to know for shure. My only reference regarding 27" was when i had an Imac27 (Which is arround 2560x1440 and way better screen)

I like the posibilities that is inclued in a 27 display, compaired to 23 as an example.
