    I am on a tight budget as i am only a student so i narrowed down the list to this:

    Asus VX239H 23″ WLED IPS Monitor | DynaQuest PC
    http://dynaquestpc.com/product/samsung-s22d390hl-21-5-wled-monitor-w-blue-toc/
    http://dynaquestpc.com/product/benq-24-inch-wide-led-monitor-gw2450/
    http://dynaquestpc.com/product/samsung-23-inch-led-monitor-s23c20kbs/
    Samsung S24D390HL 23.6″ WLED Monitor w/ Blue ToC | DynaQuest PC

    i could probably get the last one but will have to abstain from eating for a day or two as it is above my budget :D. Its kinda expensive if you convert it to usd because its the Philippines ROFL. I can always order at amazon and have it shipped here but i really need it ASAP. Would love to get feedback/advice from people who know a thing or two about monitors. I had my eyes set on the benq but it has no hdmi.

    well the asus have speaker also, Benq is pretty old model with pwm used

    personally I like VA panels (benq) more.

    Do not get the VX239H.. It is very wonky.. Look at the Asus MX239H if you can.. Much better looking/designed and has better speakers.
