#Michael Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 This is to complete my new office. It won't do any gaming or movie watching. It is strictly for office work...so internet, word processing, email, etc... I am looking at spending no more than $150 on it. So far I am thinking of: Viewsonic 23" for $157: http://www.amazon.com/ViewSonic-VX2370SMH-LED-23-Inch-SuperClear-Frameless/dp/B008RM235I/ref=sr_1_3?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1424204616&sr=1-3&keywords=VA2349s Or the Viewsonic 22" model for $139 Or this Viewsonic 22" for $119: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00D78QCYK/ref=psdc_1292115011_t2_B009F1HUMQ Any other suggestions?

#Michael Posted February 17, 2015 Author Share Posted February 17, 2015 Oh, you have a Prime... my bad... carry on. That's not to say I won't buy something that isn't available through prime but I do try to whenever possible. I am torn between the viewsonic and the acer.

I am torn between the viewsonic and the acer. I can't quibble about my Acer XH233H.bmid; bought it in 2009 with "first stimulus" money, and still soldiering on today. It does 1080p reliably through any of the three ports - DVI (either DVI-I or DVI-D), Olde Schoole D-sub, or HDMI 1.4a - even 1080p/75 via DVI-D or HDMI. Unless it fails, the only reason I'd replace it is if a better display for the same price became available. Also, unlike most triple-port low-end displays, it actually included cables for all possible inputs; most today STILL lack cables for for all possible inputs. Mom has a similar (except size) XH243H.bmid - it was retired when Mom went to an AIO with a touch-screen display.

The Evil Overlord Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I'll throw this ACER in for consideration http://www.amazon.com/Acer-G236HL-Bbd-23-Inch-LED-Lit/dp/B0098Y77U0/ref=sr_1_fkmr1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1424942794&sr=1-1-fkmr1&keywords=packard+bell+23+inch+monitor I've not had any problems with any of the acer monitors I've had over the years, the only reason I got rid of them was because a bigger monitor would turn up for the right price.
