Monitor question

glynf

Hi all,

I'm looking for 3 no. 22"/24" 1920 x 1200 montors for an eyefinity build for a mate, they need to be able pivot as well so they can be used in 3 x 1 potrait as well as 3 x 1 landscape. Theres a slew of 1920 x 1080's out there, but the monitors have to be 1920 x 1200.

Any ideas where I can get some for < €250 each?


Thanks in advance!

If you could swing the extra, these would be ideal:

Thanks Serephucus, they're back on stock soon so will go for if they have 3-the alternative is this Samsung. Not an IPS panel though.

Out of curiosity, why the requirement for x1200?

The plan is that all 3 can be rotated and used in potrait mode in an eyefinity setup, so the height becomes the width & the user requires as much screen width as possible-running financial trading software, etc.

Thats what I get for skim reading

Okaay just gonna use this thread to save me from making a new one,
What do you guys think of this monitor for 100euro?

Its full 1920 x 1080 and 2Ms response time.
If in a year or so when I get some more money would I be able to buy 2 more of these and hook them all together with eyefinity?

Thought its a TN panel, its a lot of monitor for €100. Full HD on a 22" screen might make some things a bit on the small side. The only other thing to remember is that you might find it hard to find 2 more screens the same in a years time, it might be better to get something more popular like a Samsung or Acer if you can stretch the budget.

Serephucus, thanks for the steer re. the U2410's, great monitors.

3600 x 1920:



5760 x 1200:

They're not 2410s. You have what look like 2412s, though I can't be sure. Great monitors either way though.

Typo-they are the U2412M's to be exact
