Hi i need a monitor that can display a resolution of 1920 x 1080 as im using it to view data and this screen resolution allows me to view the most amount of data in one screen shot without constantly scrolling left.

Problem is they seem so expensive and im unsure if i should just buy a new pc + monitor or maybe even use a television that has a VGA connecter on the back?

Can anybody recommend a cheap monitor or what my best options are?

I dont mind buying a 2nd hand/refurbished monitor to tty and save some money

But alot of the ones i have seen have been ?100+ and im thinking is it better to just buy a new pc that comes with a monitor if it can get one for around ?250 wouldnt that make more sense?

Any help/advice would be appreciated, thanks

Cheers guys

I was hoping to spend around ?40-50 but i dont think thats really possible is it?

They all seem to be in the ?85-120 range

And i really didnt want to spend that kind of money (tight gitt i know!)
