Dell Full HD 1920 x 1080 23" Monitor €186 Delivered

deRanged

I'm very pleased with this - I just plugged it into my laptop and reset the resolution - works nicely.
I'll be using it for work more than HD stuff.

00sully

got mine this morning - man that was fast! haven't set it up yet tho. again, great post for BA!

Standard Toaster

Must buy.....must buy.....

Guys, post up a review (games/movie playback/etc)

MisterAnarchy

Would you need a powerful graphics card to use this at the recommended resolution ?
I have a Ti4800 SE ,would that be too weak ?

JohnK

Quick question, can you get a HDMI cable that splits into DVI for the video and an audio jack for the soundbar?

j@utis

Mine just arrived (ordered on sunday). Plugged it in... Still thinking what I need it for??? most web pages are taking up one third of the screen :D it's a big change from my old 19" but looks pretty it's all new shiny and for that price you just can't want more

Dcully

Just ordered one 5 mins ago, thanks for this bargain alert folks.

Fantastic Post! Purchased one yesterday! Thanks to original poster!

That soundbar choice is driving me crazy! In an earlier thread it says that the suggested one that shows up alongside the monitor is not the right one. Can someone clarify this again! Apparently you need the PA version of this or something! It would be good to get clarity on this?

Also I have a spare set of speakers that used to be part of the Dell 37" Widescreen TV(Dell W3707C), which can be set on their own stand etc! Can i get these to work with this monitor! The connections on these speakers seem different to you standard type of connections found on PC speakers. Any advice would be much appreciated!:)

JohnK

I cracked and ordered one earlier, thanks for the link OP!

Tony

I cracked too. Thanks OP (Ithink)

Guvnor

The EPP is a good bonus, thanks!

I am guessing Dell UK will not ship to Eire? Just once again surprised at the difference in the ex vat prices!

I speced up two systems complete with the monitors and soundbars - xps 430's with some extras:

Irish Ex Vat was: €3100
UK ex Vat was: €2500 or £2235

Just makes you think is all. Our price is still a good but to save another 25%!?

Interlink are now DPD Ireland

Thanks OP

It's gonna be a big widescreen full HD christmas

Mine was delivered today but there was nobody home to take delivery so now I have to wait until tomorrow. Looking forward to it.

dingding

Mine was delivered today, great monitor. Thanks again OP.:D

I´m very tempted by this. Looking for a monitor to use with a Mythtv setup.

god's toy

Hi,

Could anyone who got this (and is a gamer!) post a mini review at it's performance please?

Thanks!

pauly3

I succumbed too! Bought off the the EPP site for €181.89 (3% discount there).
I tried buying from the UK site, had to register as a UK customer (no problem), and got as far as entering the shipping address. The form accepted my town and county, but automatically added United Kingdom after that. I put in a Newry postcode but had a change of mind and went back to the Irish site. I was afraid that a computer would automatically send the package to the Newry post office first and I might never get it. Sad thing is that this monitor only cost £140 or around €156 on the UK site

Edit: Just rechecked the Dell.ie site. Price is now €207.21. Seems the 10% off expired at midnight.

JohnK

For those who've already received theirs, what was the estimated delivery date? Its telling me I'll be waiting till the 29th, I was hoping to have it a bit sooner than that

just noticed the same thing, was hummng and hawing til now. the 20% off though continues until the 29th, and the delivery thing is until Feb. seriously tempted even for the extra €20 (unless of course that is, someone can point me to a better deal ).

SirLemonhead

Bah same, humming and hawing. €20 off is always nice

Mine arrived this morning along with the soundbar. Ordered it Sunday evening so very fast, and it should have been delivered yesterday but i was asleep.
A lot better than last time I ordered from Dell. A laptop, went to a completely different part of Ireland, and the delivery company didn't really have a clue.
I think Dell use a different company now.

Was working all night so I'm going to bed now and will open it later.

MunsterCycling

Nah the company just changed names, interlink > DPD

johnp

Ordered mine on Monday evening, it arrived this morning

jayteecork

Ok I decided to postpone bed and test it out. Have my laptop hooked up to it now. everything looks great however there's a inch wide black border just on the right of the screen.

Anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks.

edit: lol, just found the auto adjust button.
Everything's sorted!

Another edit: Can't get sound from my Xbox 360. The speakers that came with it don't seem to have an input.
They just contain a lead with a standard 3.5mm RCA male jack. Ok for plugging into laptop but I don't know how to get sound from my 360 on to the speakers.

The VGA output for the xbox 360 contains 2 sound leads that I have converted in a 3.5 RCA jack like above. Is there any way to xconnect two male RCA jacks?

Had a quick look and I'm guessing this is what I'm looking for?

18 hours for me.

JohnK

Cuddlesworth do you mean it took 18 hours or dell estimated 18 hours? Thanks.

Cheers for the heads up on the monitor and the PA soundbar. I ordered 3 monitors & 2 soundbars last night before the 10% expired. Not all for myself unfortunately.

Order is currently with courier (Interlink). How long can anyone tell me did it take before it arrived after it left Dell in Raheen, Limerick? either way its pretty good going on Dell's part to turn it around so quickly, credit where credits due.

JohnK

Sweet mines actually marked as being with Interlink now so it looks like that date of the 29th was just ever so slightly wrong

Freddie59

That looks like a great buy. I thought I did well with this (€387 on Dell Ireland - delivered from UK for €286).

Overnight usually, who should have it tomorrow.

SirLemonhead

To order using EPP, do you just enter the name of the company you work for in the Company Name box? (even though it says "Company Name (ONLY complete if you are a company")

I'm confused

Fergster

Is this deal still live?

Korvanica

got this ast week, such a nice monitor. great value!

I think so - this is what i did - they emailed to verify the company name yesterday or the day before and have not heard anything back since (touches wood).

Tony

Just got mine, delivery was estimated at the 29th but took only 2 days from ordering

Evil_Clown

Same as ^^, I ordered mine at around 9.00pm on Tues and it was delivered a half hour ago (The Dell ESD was the 29th so they are just playing safe with that)

JohnK

Those feckers! I ordered mine 3 hours before you and still dont have it

I demand compensation!

cdb

Thanks Do-More. Out for delivery today. Fantastic turn around. Heres to a widescreen christmas...

They called me yesterday evening to confirm address, order amount and then told me it would be delivered in 1 - 2 days.
Have they called you yet ?

smiddyboy

According to the email i got, the shipment date was the 16th, but so far no call from the couriers. Do they call everyone?

Wonder if it is worth giving my local depot a quick call?

JohnK

I got no call but its just arrived
Unpacking it now

Where can i find the tracking number. It does not seem to be on the Order Status Page ?

Tony

I've no idea as mine just arrived without any shipping email. Are you sure it has been shipped?

Got mine this morning, only ordered on Tuesday.
Really top class image quality and colours.
Games are just stunning at native res with no ghosting whatsoever.
Its a better monitor than the Samsung 22" it has just replaced as my main monitor.

Anyone hesitating on this, dont!, its a stunning piece of kit for a stunning price.
