1080p sweetspot?

Aidanlockett1

Anyone know a good cheap reliable monitor that has a back plate mount for a dual monitor setup that is only 1080p dvi, hdmi, and DisplayPort all will be fine suggestions? All I need this is for is 1080 p gaming on Csgo tomb raider and some light titles

@Aidanlockett1 What is your budget? What size do you want it and what type of panel do you want? TN or IPS?

if you play a lot of CsGO you will need a TN panel with at least 120hz of refresh rate... playing on 60hz becomes too frustrating.

What budget/country?

most cheaper 1080p displays lack HDMI and display port, adapters for DVI->HDMI are like $6

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...
 

Spoiler

 

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

Guess there's a sale, 1080p 60hz IPS from AOC

 

there are 75hz TN free-sync displays as well but those are around $120, would be a bit nicer for gaming potentially if you have an AMD GPU

Guess the next step is Pixio 1440p 144hz IPS free-sync display with a Vega GPU in the coming months, the Pixio display is just under $400

Or I suppose for around $400 you could get a 1080p 144hz Free-sync display with an RX 480
