Well I just figured out my budget is roughly $600 i can splurge a bit and go a bit above but I need a niceeee monitor for gaming with my 1080 and then another for browsing I need them to have really small bezels. Is GSync important? 

If you ask me, g sync is a really nice feature to have if you're gaming.

 

How does this look?

Alternatively there's this guy for the secondary monitor, the bezels are a bit bigger but it's curved and I think it's quantum dot (not sure though). Up to you which on you want to pick.

What about it being different screen size?
 

It is fine but you will have to face the weirdness at first, and @Sleeper PC 2016 has dual monitors but different sizes

Mention me if you want to summon me sooner or later

My head on 2019 :

Note 10, S10, Samsung becomes Apple, Zen 2, 3700X, Renegade X lol

Basically you take thingy on arms and screw it into little screws on back of monitor.

 

That's like all I know xD 

Make sure to quote me or tag me when responding to me, or I might not know you replied! Examples:

 

Do this:

And make sure you do it by hitting the quote button at the bottom left of my post, and not the one inside the editor!

Or this:

@DocSwag

 

Buy whatever product is best for you, not what product is "best" for the market.

 

Interested in computer architecture? Still in middle or high school? P.M. me!

 

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.
