Here are two monitors a little cheaper since your on a tight budget.

Both are 1080P 21.5"

This one comes with a DVI cable and has VGA but no HDMI.

This one has HDMI along with DVI and VGA but doesn't include anything but a VGA cable.
Newegg.com - Dell ST2220L Glossy Black 21.5" 5ms HDMI LED Backlight Widescreen LCD Monitor DC 8000000:1 (1000:1)

The Samsung is going to have the best picture quality imo, but just showing some other options.

Do not buy an Acer monitor, period.

Sweet ordering right now!

Do you agree with buying a monitor locally?

 

[PP Mguire]

I see no problem with it.
