[QUOTE="Macemore, post: 420696, member: 6113"] I'm not familiar with that symbol of money (it's not on my keyboard), quick rundown: Resolution: 1920x1080 is what you want, higher = better Size: Smaller is better, how far away are you planning on being from your screen? Dark environment? I'd recommend a 24", at 1920x1080 (AKA 1080p), because Wess did. Viewing angle: viewing from this amount of angle from the screen, the screen gets looks dark/funky. Response Time: Less than 10ms is best, lower is better. Panel: IPS/PLS is better, means better color [B]People often over look the fact that VGA is being aged out, if you use VGA, a new monitor may not support it. Same goes with DVI.[/B] I personally like ViewSonic's [URL='https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824116806']VA2259[/URL] but you'll have to find something similar at a shop that ships to you.
