Oke i really need a new monitor, considering i've jus bought a new beasty PC

I jus had a look at the site "Overclocked" which was posted on another link

I really know nothing about monitors, apart from my 15" jus don't cut it nomore. So i've seen this . . .

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MO-021-OK

Is this any good ???

Thanks

if you want a widescreen then that is ideal, a low repsonse time (8ms), nothing wrong with that what so ever.

I have two of these which are not widescreen and they are incredibly good bang for the buck:

My fiance has the one you posted from over clockers and its very good, sharp colours etc. I have this one -

Both are very good

If you're after a monitor for gaming than go for widescreen IMO - the thing you might find is that some website wont display quite right if they have been designed for square ratio monitors - most work fine tho

The digimate you posted earlier is DVI but it looks ok on VGA tbh

I'm local to overclockers so dont need to buy online/postage costs and issues (customer service is ok if you live local so can go in in person

ive always bought from overclockers.

If you have a DVI output then go for DVI.
I would personally go for normal (non widescreen).
