Gaming & Photo Editing Monitors Reccomedations

Puffhead

Hi there! I'm looking to spend about $450-$550 on two monitors. Price is an important factor here and if I need to sacrifice something to meet the price, so be it.

 

I'm looking to pick up one monitor for gaming, and one for photo work. Do any of you have any recommendations for models that fit the bill?

The slimmer the bezels the better, and I also need vesa mount support on both.

 

For the gaming monitor:

144hz

AdaptiveSync compatible (I have a 1070)

25-27 inches

1080p is fine
 

For the photo monitor:

1440p/4k

27 inches

Color accurate

 

Thanks so much!

You're going to want to focus on one monitor at a time with that kind of budget if you want decent color accuracy.


Probably get the 4k display first, then at some point in the future grab one of the $200-250 1080p 240hz displays.

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?
