Yeah I've read all the other threads similar to this...
I'm still confused, I've been trying to find a good monitor all night.
I am looking for a decent size (24" perhaps?) monitor for the computer I am building. This computer will sit in my office. Rarely will it be used for watching movies (I have my TV for that!) and I won't ever use it for graphical design, imaging or that sort of stuff. It will almost entirely be surfing the internet and playing games like Diablo 3, Tera, GW2 etc.
Do I need an IPS for this or will I not be able to tell the difference between IPS and a cheaper monitor?
£250 would be my max budget but only if you think I would get any use out of a good monitor, if you think I won't need that kind of quality I'd prefer to keep it lower.
Here are some IPS monitors I found, are these good?
Viewsonic VP2365 at £190 http://www.ebuyer.com/279294-viewsonic-vp2365-lcd-led-23-dvi-monitor-vp2365-led
Dell u2412m for £230 http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MO-052-DE
Asus PA238Q for £200 http://www.ebuyer.com/280571-asus-pa238q-lcd-led-23-hdmi-monitor-pa238q
I have heard some odd things about a couple of those though, especially the asus to do with leakage or backlight bleeding or something?
If I do not need an IPS monitor or will not get value for my money, can you recommend me a cheaper one please?
