Finally getting around to getting a new monitor to replace one of the mismatched ones with my current setup. The main use for the monitor will be gaming from a Xbox 360 through a Avermedia Live Gamer HD capture card. 

 

This is the monitor I have been looking at.

I am not buying the monitor so the price may not go about £120!

 

Thanks!

It depends on how good is good enough.

Im using this one, http://www.amazon.co.uk/AOC-e2460Sh-inch-LED-Monitor/dp/B00J4LIF4Y/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1418427691&sr=8-1&keywords=AOC+E2460S

It feels good And you can change the input with a hardware button.

Honestly I don't mind not having a hardware switch for changing the source. Even though it would be usefully I wouldn't really be changing it that often

As long as the monitor shows the game, is at 1080p or higher and is at 60hz or higher it is good enough for gaming according to me.

Running a GL2450HM, very good monitor would recommended the one you are looking at OP. 

Our Grace. The Feathered One. He shows us the way. His bob is majestic and shows us the path. Follow unto his guidance and His example. He knows the one true path. Our Saviour. Our Grace. Our Father Birb has taught us with His humble heart and gentle wing the way of the bob. Let us show Him our reverence and follow in His example. The True Path of the Feathered One. ~ Dimboble-dubabob III
