Hey guys, anybody have an recommendations for a computer monitor? I need a widescreen monitor (Though most these days are already) My old one has a burn-in at the top and a dead pixel in the corner.

The two Dells I have at work are nice, unfortunately I won't have the model till next week because I'm out at a conference

There are plenty of options depending on what you want to spend. I currently own 2 Asus 24" monitors which I love. Look for LCD or LED (I prefer LED) and whether or not they have built in speakers since it looks like you might need that option. Also make sure it has the proper inputs types for what your video card is putting out (VGA, DVI or HDMI). Almost all new monitors will be DVI or HDMI but if you can get adapters for each of these types to convert the signal if absolutely necessary.

I would recommend pricing to be from $100 up to $200 to get something decent. If it's less than $100, read a lot of review before buying (it might be a good deal, but I'd be suspicious.) If it's over $200, it had better be very fancy with 3D, a massive rebate or well over 24" screen size to make it worth the money. Other than that, there's not much advice I can give you without knowing what your primary needs are. Are you a gamer or photo editor? If so, you're going to want a higher end monitor but if it's normal websurfing (like the screen in your picture) then go for the best bang for your buck.

Here's what I'm using: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0043T7FHK/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00

I have an EVGA GTX 560 that has dual DVI and a single HDMI output. I dont want to spend more than $200. I love the monitor I have now. Its a Dell WFP2007 (http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/monitors/2007WFP/en/about.htm)

I have a couple of those Dells on my desk at work and they are pretty decent. My only complaint is that the adjusters (tilt/up/down) tend to get a bit loose after a while. That's probably just because of office work and the numerous times they've been moved though. Home use is probably much more friendly and they last longer.

You can actually pick up another one (or two) on eBay for around $100 each; http://www.ebay.com/ctg/Dell-2007WFP-20-1-inch-LCD-Monitor-/72069462. Maybe a bit out of your price range for two but if you only need one monitor then it could be a bargain since you already know you liked the monitor.

If nothing else, take a visit to a computer store and see what they have and what monitors catch your eye. Be sure to pull up the menu settings and reset them to default before comparing though. Some stores will screw with the settings on a cheaper monitor to make you think the picture quality isn't as good as the expensive ones. Bonus points if you can get a salesperson to tell you how crappy the cheap one is before resetting both of them and showing him they look the same. Key thing to remember is that there are only a very few LCD/LED screen manufacturers in the world so when you compare different monitors, they often have the same internal hardware. The only difference is the plastic surrounding them and the extra options or menu features added in by each name brand.
