Hi guys,

 

 

Im going to be upgrading my monitors within the coming months. I currently have two and i tv however i am going to sell the two monitors and get a triple monitor setup and keep my TV for media and whatnot. I'm wondering what monitors you guys would buy for under 200 GBP each. I have no real requirements for these monitors, they dont need to be fantastic in any way, wont be doing much pc gaming on them so a 60hz refresh rate is fine as is a 5ms response time (of course if these can be beaten thatd be nice). I would like them to have a HDMI input due to having and xbox. My only real desire is that they have a thin bezel so they look nice with a triple setup. 

 

Thanks a lot guys,

 

Rich

Cheers bro, however the thin bezel real is the main priority with this monitor as i do not game much. One of the main reasons for me wants a triple monitor set up is for stocks etc, therefore as i say i dont really need the response time etc, but thanks for the reply man

Ohh thanks a lot mate i'll have a serious look into this, and the 27 inch version, possibly using the 27 inch as a middle monitor and two of the 24's either side. Thanks again mate this does look like it has a lot of potential

Bro could i get your opinion on the u2414h?

Since you are using tri monitors, if the two on the sides are a TN panel, they will not look as good as the middle one, due to the poor viewing angles.

The Dell u2414h is a great 1080p IPS monitor, there is a cheaper alternative though. The Acer H236hlbid is a fantastic 23" IPS monitor. It sells for about 130 USD, which is amazing value for the monitor. They have a super slim bezel and are fine for gaming. The viewing angles are great, and the colors phenomenal.
