  • ViewSonic VX2433wm

    ViewSonic VX2433wm is a low-priced monitor with acceptable performance for everyday tasks.

  • Dell ST2310

    The ST2310 has a low price and is good for everyday tasks, but it lacks some of the extra features included with similarly priced displays.

  • ViewSonic VG2427wm

    The ViewSonic VG2427wm has a good assortment of ergonomic options and great performance, but its asking price is just a bit too high to recommend.

  • HP 2009f LCD Monitor

    The HP 2009f is a good-looking 20-inch display with enough features to make it well worth its low price.

  • HP 2309m

    At a price of AU$649, the 2309m is a decent buy. While it performs well, the blacks aren't as deep as we'd like, and we'd be more tempted to find something with a matte screen to cut down on reflections.
