Hey folks.  So I have a 20in. 1600x900 monitor for gaming and a secondary 1280x1024 17in. panel for whatever else like HWmonitor ,FB, Pandora etc.  I'm thinking about consolidating to a single 1080p monitor.  I saw what looked like a half decent 1080p on Amazon for 130.99USD.  My budget will probably be $200 by the time I get to it.  Size I want is about 22in.  I mostly game, youtube, and use MS Office.  I need at least 1 HDMI and 1 DP -or- 2 HDMI.  That way I can attached my laptop when I want. PIP isn't a requirement but might be nice.  So yeah.  How good is this one for the price and what do you all reccomend at 150/200USD.  I'm not afraid of Refurbs either. AOC

Since you only have a 270X, I would suggest getting a nice 1080p IPS 60Hz monitor.  Acer H236HL bid should be good.

Yeah, I was leaning more towards 1080p.  That Acer looks really nice.  Good reviews.  DVI for the rig and HDMI for the portable..  I'll add that to the list of ones to look at. Thanks!

Yea i'm using it right now.  Nice colors out of the box, thin bezels, and it goes on sale for $110 USD quite often.
