The sparta is a good monitor and there's no doubt you would be happy with it but the Leonidas is better.

It's LED backlit, has a better adjustable stand, metal housing vs plastic and has an anti glare coating. It's up to you if it's worth an extra €100 for those reasons.

I suppose your right BLoodyBath, when your spending so much on a monitor already, you might as well go for the best

Can you suggest a Leonidas to buy from ebay please

You might still get stung by customs for another €100 or so.
