Always been very happy with Iiyama monitors. Might be worth seeing whose LED panels they use and work from there. You may get a no brand monitor using a good quality LED panel that is better than a big name monitor with a lesser panel?Public Service Posting by the BBC - Bloggs Bulls**t Corp.

Monitor went pop... what to get?
Years ago (>20 ) I used to sell Iiyama monitors for CAD systems, they were very good.
If you're interested in an old monitor that still has plenty of life in it, I have a Samsung T240HD (24")that I'm going to put on eBay soon. It's 10 years old, but hasn't been switched on much in the last 7 years (probably less than an hour a month). It plus my old Dell desktop have been replaced by a company 27" unit.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

Sounds like it was a pretty good bit of kit back in the day from the review I read. Yeah, maybe though I've zero idea what 2nd hand monitors go for. PM if you want?Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment

Loving my 34 inch Dell. No need to have two any more. Cost about £450 inc. VAT a year ago - can probably be had for a bit less now.Comment

Rather than replacing, you could see if it can be repaired cheaply. Depends if there's anyone near you offering to fix electrical gear that could diagnose the problem and fix it cost effectively.
My faulty Dell 24" is still in the loft in case I one day get round to seeing if it can be fixed. It has the fancy portrait/landscape swivel stand which is probably worth as much as the panel these days. Shame Dell have bespoked the attachment mechanism to some extent, so need an adaptor for it to work with other VESA compliant monitors.Maybe tomorrow, I'll want to settle down. Until tomorrow, I'll just keep moving on.Comment
