Whats a good monitor around $160 for general web browsing and gaming?

[themaniac]

So I'm currently looking into getting a second monitor(er well a new main monitor) and I have never really payed attention to monitors for the longest of time. So I'm not too sure what to really look for. The only things I know for sure about, is I want it to be around 24", atleast 75hz, and be atleast 1080p as those are what my current monitor has

 

From some looking around I found the MSI Optix G24C which looks nice, its a slight bit above $160 but I can manage that. I also found the ASUS TUF Gaming VG24VQ which also seems nice and its a bit under $160 but thats with an MIR. 

 

So, is there any better monitors that I missed or are both of these good choices and if thats the case, which would be the better choice?

Right, probably the most important thing and i forgot about it... I'm looking at 1080p, if theres a good 1440p monitor in the price range then all the better but 1080p is perfectly fine for me.

I would say if you want to choose between the 2 go for the msi one the ASUS TUF Gaming VG24VQ is kinda overpriced.

I'd buy it asap. It was featured in a YT video so stock will be depleted soon.

I don't think he's famous, but 200k view later there's only one in stock. TechSource is the channel.
