should I buy a TV or PC Monitor

markfj

Hi all

well looking at getting a new TV as I currently have a TV and PC in the same room, I really want to get either a Digitial HD ready tv with PC input, but then seen monitors that have digital tv in them too

so which one is better, any ideas? I would need it to connect to an xbox 360 too, if that makes a difference at all?

cheers

It would depend on what size your thinking about ,if your looking at 24" or bigger a t.v would be far cheaper than a monitor.
I just got a Samsung syncmaster 2343 monitor for £140 it`s 23" and the resolution is better than full hd.
It`s hard to answer if you don`t have a size or price in mind.

Hi

thanks for the reply, I was actually looking at around 22-24inch, as thats they size TV I was looking at.

Basically, I just want a TV/Pc monitor that can connect to my xbox, through HDMI, as I can use my pc as a dvd player etc too and saves on having a TV and monitor.

Price wise, looking for the cheaper deal really, if its cheaper just to but a TV I will get a TV and same the other way round

for this size it is better to get Samsung monitor so the clarity will be good and better price than TV.
