TFT Monitor Recomendations?

[idi banashapan]

i believe advent is PC Worlds home brand. but in the same light, Technosonic would do as previously mentioned. buy up old stock of panels and components usually 2 or more years old and rebrand.

Hmmm, i have a 22" advent monitor, 2 advent laptops, and a 10watt advent PC speaker set.

That's because - as a student - you can't afford any decent kit!!

IMHO, looking for a DVI connection is a good idea. If it's DVI-I it'll also support VGA with the right adapter.

Consider getting a display that'll rotate into portrait mode. I find this very useful.

Some also have video input too that might be handy if you have a games machine or an STB you might want to connect.

Aria always used to be a good place to look for monitors:

Excellent - please post tomorrow with your thoughts on what it's like!

you want to go over 22" to get the higher res imo but I can only say so many times before everyone gets bored of hearing it lol

perhaps not everyone is a res junky and perhaps not everyone wants to pay the 22" to 24" gap price hike for anything descent. 22" is plenty for everyday use.

It arrived this morning at about 9:45! I've took some photos of it, but will have to wait for me to edit them down for the forum.

It looks fantastic, I can't get over how wide this thing is! I'm very happy with it up to now.
