Ahem....was the original question....a PC gaming monitor ... not one that does the washing and cleans the universe at the same time :¬)


Cleaning the universe requires a towel. Mine only does the moons.

I was going to go for that, it was £10 off in Currys (same price as Ebuyer), but went for the M2280D 1080p LED LG 22" instead which was reduced from £239.99 to £179.99, and it looks great on both the PC and Mac.

Of course, if you're just using it for a monitor then a dedicated monitor will always be that much better.

Prefer not to spend any money, but old TV/monitor was playing up, now in the kids room and working ok as just a TV.

@Alfonse
pb asked a similar question on Twitter the other day.

I can recommend Samsung's 22" P2270HD TV/Monitor - 1080p/HDMI/VGA/DVI/Etc.

My son uses this with his PS3 and PC and you get a decent TV/Tuner as well - around £200.

EDIT: I'm not saying this eclipses DL's input! space!

What do you think of this one? I'm building a new rig and while I know my components pretty well, I've never actually bought a monitor in my entire life.


I'd still consider the Viewsonic:

Viewsonic site

Scan Computers

It's also highly recommended by PCGamer Tech :¬)

Do we have any PC gamers on freeola? If so, what kind of monitor do you use?

You know I am Alfonse....Hanns.G HW191D at moment ....superb piece of kit...19" widescreen, excellent resolution and response time. However, maybe upgrading soon to Viewsonic VP2365WB 23" monitor....incredible value for under £200 :¬)

Maybe we can all slip into the Twilight Zone and refresh ourselves for the battle beyond the stars

[i]Hi everyone!

Was very excited earlier! Found a game I've been looking for ages. Went to counter but then the sales assistant said he couldn't find the disk. Love the feeling of holding/buying a game you've found after a long search, but loosing a game when so close is horrible. Not going to give up though!

Hope everyone is having a good start to the week.


What game. Sorry we all missed it :P[/i]

Haha it's okay, the posts are fun to read! Managed to get a copy of the game, will start playing it later. The game is Lego Island 2. I know it sounds childish, but it holds some personal memories. Guess it's nostalgia talking, when re-playing I might end up hating the game!

Have a good day everyone, and thanks for the fish! *runs from stares*
