Cheapest 1440p monitor

[zonahbear]

I have been interested in purchasing a 1440p monitor. What's the absolute cheapest one I can find, that is at least 60hz and IPS?

Ther are Korean moniters but I would prefer the asus pb278q which can be found at the low mid $400

I forgot to add 24 inches max because my VESA mount doesn't support higher than that

1440p is pretty pointless @ 24 inches

I second PB278Q. Excellent monitor for the price, and just an excellent monitor period. Bought mine for $400 CAD so would prob be even less in USD.

For 24 inch, I really haven't seen a lot of 24 inch 1440p monitor, if not any.

i would have no clue off the top of my head, linus did do a review of this monitor, i think, considering the asus fan that linus is

I don't use VESA mount with mine, but according to Anandtech, "YES (100mm)"

i dont bother. the school already monitors my computer 24/7 so

okay. i might be able to *just barely* fit a 27 inch on my tri monitor stand

[IMPERIUS]

It is pointless to get a 1440p 24in monitor. You can get a 1080p one at that size. Go with a 27in 1440p monitor instead. 

 

Thats why I don't like vesa mounts, they limit you in the future

[Vavetti]

If 27 inches is to big you might want to get a dell U2515h it's 25 inches.

it was an impulse buy. it really is an annoyance, the clamp barely fits on the back of my desk, i had to cut a block of wood so it wouldnt fall off

also, our schools filters are at software level, vpn doesnt do anything. proxies do though

theyre actually allowed to do that in your school?

with ours, theyre barely allowed to monitor anything, we really pushed for privacy, so think of it like sports, if they have no reason to drug test you, they wont.
