Hi all,
I'm looking to purchase a new monitor, I have in the region of £400 to spend, give or take. My primary use will be gaming, followed by general browsing, won't be using it much for films etc. I'd like a 24''-27'' screen, with at least 1080 resolution, although I think they all manage that these days. Panel-wise, I'm not that up to date with things, but I hear IPS is a good choice, opinions?
PC Specs:
i7 920 @ 4.0Ghz Liquid cooled
9Gb ram
SLI GTX 275 896Mbs
OCZ Vertex 2E
1Tb Spinpoint F1
Enermax Galaxy 1kw
Now I know that my GPU's will limit the res I can game at, but I don't get the chance to upgrade too often so they'll have to wait. I'm coming from a fairly old (4 years) 20'' HP screen that has served me great, but is now on the way out. I've been looking at a 24'' Dell ultrasharp, or a 27'' Hazro IPS screen, but am not sure how people rate these. The hazro screen has a huge resolution but would be a great investment for a new GPU.
So - any ideas, suggestions or opinions would be much appreciated! Thanks!
tl;dr
Best monitor for ~£400?
