22 Monitor Ebuyer ?

My sons looking for a monitor max £140 ,he looked at a couple

http://www.ebuyer.com/product/168144
Any comments on these 2 or any others that you may think a better option would be appreciated.
It would be used for gaming and video editing.

Thanks

To be honest a lot of the technical data leaves confused such as Image Contrast Ratio.

We had some Acer screens at work and they stopped working.
I would go for the LG.

Re: 22 Monitor Ebuyer ?

I'd go for the LG because it is apparently 'full HD' & has an HDMI input, meaning it should be possible to connect to a Bluray player or HD set top box

NB the caveat about no built in sound in the reviews/comments, though

Same hear iv`e got the M228WD which has been fantastic. The only slight grumble is the speakers aren`t the greatest (still adequate though)

They look lovely as well
