pc monitor recommendations

[af7lm]

Hey all. Thinking about picking up a new monitor to use along side my laptop and looking for some suggestions. I'll primarily use it for gaming , streaming video, and whatnot, no video editing or the like.

From the little searching I've done, people/reviews like the dell U2410 but that seems pretty expensive and not sure if I would need that for my intentions. Also looked at some Samsung.

Anyway, if you have any suggestions/recommendations it'd be appreciated. Thanks.

I'd recommend the Samsung SyncMaster 2443bwx. Its an older monitor so it has no HDMI outputs but you can find it pretty cheap and the picture quality is great. I bought one off ebay a few weeks ago for $145 new and love it. There are a few on ebay for around $200 which is a pretty nice deal for a 24" 1920x1200 monitor.
