Best Cheap LCD Monitor (Found 5)


Recommended Posts

I'm looking to replace my 17" CRT monitor (which I've had since 2002 tongue.gif) with a TFT monitor. I'm looking for a cheap TFT monitor to play games, internet & catch up on missed programs (e.g. BBC iPlayer, 4oD etc). My budget is about £70. I've found the following but which one is the best?

Digimate L-1982WD LED LCD 19" DVI-D Widescreen Monitor £69.99

Hanns G HA195ABB 19" TFT LCD VGA Widescreen Monitor £62.99

LG W1946S-BF TFT LCD 18.5" VGA Widescreen Monitor £62.99

Samsung B1740R 17" VGA Monitor £69.99

Samsung SyncMaster E1920N LCD TFT 18.5" VGA Monitor £59.99

Thanks, seems a great deal as it seems a lot of other places are selling this at £100! :|

It seems I left it to late as the product is no longer on the website :/. Oh well, my fault. I should have guessed that would have happened.

i can't believe anybody looking for a new screen these days would settle for anything less than 1920x1080. it's so cheap now, it's madness not to. admittedly it's a good 30-40 quid more than you spent but as you've waited 9 years since your last upgrade, saving a bit longer couldn't have hurt. oh well, too late now.....

Do you have a job ?

For someone in your position, one would think you need to focus on eating and shelter as opposed to buying a crappy LCD.

Why not spend $20-$30 on a used one somewhere local - crap is crap -

Not trying to be a jackass - it just comes naturally unfortunately

I'm sure I'll cope... :p. If I was the gamer I use to be I would have got a higher res monitor but I'm a very casual gamer compared to my past. Now I have a family, a job and a house, I don’t have the time for gaming I once had.
