Need Dual monitors for new Gaming PC

BlazeMike
I will be building a gaming PC soon, and i need options for a new monitor / monitors (I got a 760 in mind of having a dual monitor setup).

 

My plan is that i will be gaming on one monitor [this is coud be more gaming optimized],

and the second one also for gaming but mostly video edtiding, and to use a stream monitoring display, as i do plan on streaming.

 

Games I will usually and mostly play: Minecraft, Flight Simulator Series...  and maybe some CoD.

 

Otherwise mostly, its just gonna be MC and streaming.

 

I did look at some Asus VH series monitors..... 

But i need your help, so i can decide finally.

 

Thnx,

Blaze

Budget?

Get two Dell U2414H's.

If you played CS:GO I would say get Benq XL2411Z and Dell U2414H, but with COD don't bother.

I agree here. Super sexy monitors.

Just curious, why not with COD?

Hard to get cod to 120/144fps and speed doesn't matter as much in casual shooters, colors are better.

 

 

especially sexy when you do this del-u2414h.jpg

Exactly!

Ah ok, just curious as the way you worded it made it seem like the U2414H wouldn't be a good choice for COD.

Which kind of contradicts the 120hz thing as it's a 60hz panel :)

 

I'm torn between getting two of those or 2 27" 1440p displays.

...if the ROG monitor drops in price for Black Friday, it's a clear winner.

Sorry for the late reply guys, forgot to follow the thread, Thnx for the responses btw.

 

My budget per monitor will $170-$190,

1080p would be fine, i won't be playin CoD [might play very very rarely] 

 

As for Hz im not sure the monitors beloware 60Hz, what would be the right Hz rate for me?

 

I did do some research and found the Asus Vs238h-p works as a good gaming monitor and the Vs239h-p is a good ips monitor both of these monitors fit my price range quite well. What do think about it?

 

I live in Dubai, UAE.  I will be ordering from amazon.com or from my local vendors

 

Thnx

The VS23H-P with its IPS panel would be my choice.

Should I get the vs238h-p for my primary monitor (gaming) cuz of its 2 ms response time, and the vs239h-p for my video editing, and secondary monitor.

Is this a good setup?

you only buy 120hz if you REALLY REALLY need it and I mean REALLY, like if you play cs:go 8 hours a day then sure you might need ONE xl2420. Orther than that u2414 is superior to all gaming tn panels.

They both are quite amazing superior monitors. They are expensive for my budget (190$ per monitor) I will mostly be using them for minecraft and streaming, and the Microsoft series. Also Warframe and maybe Starcraft. All these things will involve me streaming or recording them. This is why I was leaning towards the asus monitors. Also i need cash to spend on gaming headset, keyboard, and mouse. Are these a good setup? Or if u can pls recommend good monitors within the price range and which are from a proper brand.

Thnx

I would get two identical monitors. I have yet to read of anyone who finds the slower response time of IPS panels an issue when gaming.
