    Can you guys help me choosing between this 2 monitors? I'm not sure if there is any difference between this two monitors besides the fact that one has integrated speakers and the other one doesn't, I would like to know if there is any diference in specs? which one is better or are they the same? hope you guys can help me please.

    Newegg is a better website for comparing products (one of the two monitors is cheaper there!). Here are the links for the two - click on Details of each to see the specs:
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824116442&Tpk=VX2250WM
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824116456&Tpk=VA2231W

    I can only see these three differences:
    1. VX2250wm has speakers
    2. VA2231w is $20 cheaper
    3. Newegg states the VA2231w includes a D-sub cable but no DVI, while Amazon states the VX2250wm includes both a D-sub and a DVI cable. Neither site mention the cables included with the alternate monitors.
    Also note that both screens are actually 21.5" not 22" (22" includes the frame).

    Yes absolutely. Those are the ONLY differences, besides the two looking slightly different. The resoution, contrast ratio, wattage, .... everythign else is the same.

    If you are set on getting one of the two, then you just need to weigh $20 versus speakers and a DVI cable.

    The VX2450wm-LED Black 24" is basically the same monitor as the VX2250wm-LED Black 21.5", just a bit bigger. They have a few other differences, but on each of those the VX2450wm-LED Black 24" is still superior. If it's within your budget, I'd recommend the bigger screen. The great thing about monitors, unlike almost any other part of your computer, is that they can outlast several upgrades. For that reason it's one of the best investments you can make.
