I bought this for a PC i was building for a family member. The monitor is quite nice to look at and the display is as crisp as some dearer monitors. It is quite compact for it's monitor type and fits perfectly on a standard computer desk.
I have upped the refresh rate to 75mhz and this seems to have sharpened up the display. The monitor had all relevant cables included and seems a bargain at just over £70, i would reccomend this monitor to someone trying to build a pc on a budget, who does not want to use a low quality TFT screen. I will now be using this monitor type on all my new pc builds.
I have had just the one slight problem with this monitor, when it was delivered the power button was jammed in, simply pressing the button released this and i have not experienced the same problem again.

Imagine you wanted to buy an item like this. Would you buy it on the strength of your review. Ciao are not that brill at telling us how to write reviews, but imagine all aspects of the product and try describing it as if the person reading knows nothing about the product whatsoever.
