Looks like a good buy.....

What graphics card have you got? does it have a digital output? if it does, id recommend spending another £30 or so and getting a tft that supports digital input

Hi Mal

looks ok to me - the only downside I can see is the lack of a DVI input, but if your graphics card has only 15 pin D-Sub output, that won't be a problem - and if it has a DVI you should have got a converter plug with it. Best advice is to try to look at the monitor in use before you make up your mind.

<edit> KP beat me to it:D

Rather than start a new thread I thought I would add to this one. :)

My monitor would appear to be ****ed. :cry:

I'm thinking of a 17" tft anyone bought one recently or got any cool links to a good option please. :)

I looked at This and it seems ok.

Has anyone managed to find any screenshots comparing the quality of a DVI monitor and a regular VGA LCD monitor? I can't seem to find but would like to know how good the difference is.

After Tristan's heads-up, I have just bought a Dell Ultrasharp 1703FPs from Aria for Mrs A's computer. Aparently, the 's' at the end of the part number means it's manufactured by Samsung ('t' means LiteOn). We've not used it much yet but it looks very good. It has: 17", 1280x1024 pixels, DVI-D and DSUB inputs, 2-port USB hub, pivot and adjustable height stand, DVI-D, DSUB and USB cables but no mains cable. All for £239 + VAT.

My Iiyama has a pivot, and I like it so much that I'd never buy a monitor now without this feature.
