Edited by: Green Halo on 31/07/2008 22:32:38 I've been living with a brand new PC for about 3 months now. However, I never got around to upgrading my monitor so it's still hooked up to my old 17' LG .
Anyhoo, now is the time for a new one! I've spent a few days looking around some websites like newegg and bestbuy (just to compare), but I don't know what to really look for as far as it goes with "specs" for monitors. So I'm asking for some advice...
What I'm looking for: - 22 Inch max size. - A very decent picture quality. - Possible component cable ports integrated into it; I found this puppy but it's overdone with the speakers/bass...

Well, like I said, I don't know much about monitor specs. If widescreen is better, then widescreen it is

Thanks for the input guys. After giving it some thought and spending a few more hours looking at the specs of some monitors, I've decided to wait and save a little more for a 24'.
However I haven't found another monitor like the one I first posted. One with built in component cable ports (for consoles and etc). Are they not popular or is there a better way for sharing a monitor with a PC and console?

(offtopic) As for that monitor Jora'h; A few months ago IBM replaced all my stores registers (I work at a commissary). Every single one of them have this monitor as a heads up display for the customers. I'd have to measure the size, but it's almost exactly the same thing. I dunno, I just thought that was pretty interesting/funny.

There is one 22" 1920x1200 display out there. The Lenovo L220x (they are a long established company whose stuff is mostly rebranded for IBM). That essentially gives it the same screen space as a 24" but in a 22". Also, nearly all 22" and down displays are TN panels. This one is an S-PVA panel (superior in many ways to a TN screen).
