    Hey guys, I'm looking for a good external monitor out there right now. I'm an Electrical Engineering student and can really benefit from the increased workspace. My only criteria are:

    -24" matte LED
    -~$200-250 limit
    -Has HDMI connection

    Been looking at the ASUS VS248H-P and the Viewsonic VX2453mh. What do you guys think? Are there 24" IPS monitors out there that are $200?

    You might want to try posting over on the desktopreview forums for more recommendations.

    Monitors and Displays

    I personally use an Acer GD235Hz as it was one of the only displays that supported 120Hz/3DVision when I got it. It works fabulously for 3D Gaming, though it's outside the range you wanted for price.

    24" IPS panels start at... probably two and a half times that.

    I actually own the VS248H, and it's a pretty damn good monitor for the price. I ended up getting mine for $160 not too long ago.
