Cheers,

First post here thought not new to this forum or forums in general - did us e"search"on the top right

So I'm looking to buy an external monitor for either watching movies/youtube on a different screen when I'm busy using final cut pro x or photoshop on the macbook. I may even use it for editing for final cut if it's big enough but not sure at the moment.

Anyway the monitor I'm looking at is: http://amzn.to/nhaKmg

The main things I need from it:
-Needs to be cheap, I'm a uni student haha
-1920x1080 resolution/ 16:9
-not sure what else.


Does anyone have any suggestions or thoughts? or recommend a different monitor?

I did look at older topics but as you very well know, the link they gave there to technology is ancient by now.

-Thank you for reading!

I think you've found a good deal. Going refurbished for $130 - doesn't get much better, and it ticks all your boxes.
