    Default Seeking a monitor recommendation (Europe)

    With all the positive attention we've had just lately from the official blue-bods, I'm feeling all warm and fuzzy about software multiboxing again.

    To reduce my field of vision, I'm going to have a go at five boxing with two machines - my main on its own, and the four drones all together on another machine.

    I have an Ergotron DS100 quad-monitor mount, so whatever I get must have VESA mounts (either 50 or 100), be no bigger than ~23 inches and must not be wide-screen (the latter is more of an asthetic and personal preference thing).

    Currently, all 4 mounts hold cheap'n'cheerful 19" 1280x1024 Viewsonic monitors. Nothing to write home about, but adequate. My plan is to simply replace one of those with a higher quality screen that can run 4 tiled WoWs at a reasonable resolution.

    I had a read of the other Monitor Recommendation thread, which links to New Egg, but couldn't find the European equivalent screens.

    So, can anyone recommend a decent monitor for me? I'm in Germany right now (Frankfurt), so it needs to be something I can just pick up from Media Markt, Saturn or amazon.de.

    I'm currently leaning towards a Samsung SyncMaster 214T, but all suggestions are gratefully received.

    Thanks in advance

    According to anandtech.com this 22" widescreen is the best gaming monitor out right now. On sale for $289.99 at Best Buy. I know they have it in EU. but it's a different model #, which I don't know.

    Thanks. The closest I've found is this one. It ticks all the boxes, even though it is a few pixels short on vertical resolution.

    I'm in the UK for a few more days, but will take a closer look when I get back to Germany.

    Cheers.

    Here is the EU model # for the LG monitor I posted earlier: L227WTG
