Hi All,

I have an LG 20" LCD monitor, which connects using VGA. I love it.

Maybe this is something like you're looking for.

Re: TFT Monitor Recomendations?

Lots of recommendations in http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/19...ecommends.html, however some of those might not now be available given the pace of technology.

There seems to be some cracking TFT deals coming up on Hotukdeals. http://hotukdeals.com/computers/deals/hot
I have a 19" widescreen Samsung <2ms and it's fantastic.

Re: TFT Monitor Recomendations?

What about this Novatech model?

Think they are BenQ re-branded?

I have the Samsung 226BW, and it's been great, even for gaming and movies. Can get them for a good price now too.

Re: TFT Monitor Recomendations?

I've only ever owned one monitor that was not a Samsung. I then sold it and bought another Samsung! really can't fault them. solid and great picture. I'm sure the one I have has been updated by now as I've had mine for some time, but I've no need to change it.

Re: TFT Monitor Recomendations?

bare in mind advent is a home brand and would use cheaper components, usually sourced from slightly older stocks of panels than the newest named brands such as samsung, philips, sony, etc.

Re: TFT Monitor Recomendations?

I was under the impression that Advent simply re-branded other companies things and sold them on. Such as my TV, which is made by someone else, but has a 'Technosonic' label on it.
