Buying Dell Monitor

go for the U2414H

Total awsome. Try to get it for $289 or less, you have to hunt around to get it that low. It 2 for 267 a piece.

But, is the extra $100 worth it? This isnt a monitor for gaming or intensive blu-ray movies I have on my home PC. I am only using it for emails, business work, office programs...
 
Dell makes a great monitor and has the best warranty in the business. I'm sold on them and have been buying them the past several years. The ultrasharps are the way to go if visual quality is important to you.
 
I would personally recommend the Dell P2314H instead. It's cheaper, has a great IPS panel, with better connectivity. (DisplayPort, DVI, VGA, USB)

$187.99 at Amazon
 
Or, is that kind of monitor even needed? I can buy a $100 Dell monitor that is 19" and 1336 x 768. I am only doing internet research and document editing. This isnt my gaming PC, it is the PC at my workplace.

Trust me, you do not want a 1366 x 768 monitor to edit documents or do internet research. I'd recommend the Dell U2412M.
 
For document editing you want good screen resolution and a lower dot pitch otherwise the text will be fuzzy and hard to read.

100% agree. For productivity tasks you'd really like highest res, preferably 16:10, monitor that you can afford.

The dell u2412m would be a fantastic choice. You can get them opened, and repackaged unused from Amazon for ~$210 right now
 
U2412m is a good choice and uses a very similar panel. Unless you have a server that you have buy a monitor just to configure the bios, you would never skimp on a monitor. It is one of the most important parts, and the one and only part that you are looking at the entire time.

If a company gave me a crap LCD to use 8-10 hrs day, I would buy my own with my money to use, that is unless policies prohibited.
