Does anybody know any good monitors for under 100 USD?

Do you have any specific requirements or needs for the monitor?

Under 100 USD there is not a lot of choice, but if you want something specific from the monitor (i.e. VESA mount, good colors, a specific size, sort of input, etc.) there can still be different best options for you specifically.

It doesn't really matter for the size. I would prefer 1080p although I don't think that will happen. 

1080p is definitely possible sub-100 USD.

In my experience, most monitors around that price are:

- 1080p (with some of course below that)

- 21 - 24" diagonal

- Usually TN, sometimes IPS (generally IPS has better viewing angles and colors)

 

Little above 100 USD, but a pretty good option: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/z3RgXL/samsung-ls24f354fhnxza-235-1920x1080-60-hz-monitor-ls24f354fhnxza (23.5", 1080p, HDMI, normal bezel size)

100 USD at Samsung, for a 21.5" 75Hz monitor (Hz = fps of your monitor, most monitors are 60Hz), HDMI, AMD Freesync too: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/PjjNnQ/samsung-s22r350fhn-215-1920x1080-75-hz-monitor-ls22r350fhnxza
