I really want to get a new monitor to go along with my current one, I don't want to spend more than $160 and won't go any less than 20". Reading this thread enlightened me a bit but I'm still slightly clueless.

These seem to be a pretty good one for the price, at least to me: here or this one

smug forum rear end in a top hat posted:

What will you be using your monitor for primarily? What is the largest you are willing to go?

Well, I would game on it but none of the games I play on PC are fast-paced FPS type of games. It'd basically be for movies/games. As for largest? I'm not too sure, with the budget I'm going with it seems that it tops out at 22"-23" but I guess larger than that wouldn't be bad.

Alright, this one caught my eye because it's hugely on sale and it seems to be a pretty good monitor, would I have any trouble gaming or watching movies on this? http://www.amazon.com/HP-x22LED-21-5-Inch-Widescreen-Monitor/dp/tech-data/B0049P1V28/ref=de_a_smtd

I want to get one that is decent enough, but I don't pull the trigger until I research around a lot. (especially if I see one on the cheap)
