Hello,
My friend asked me what I want for my birthday, he told he has ~$150 budget.
Now I am not sure what to ask for. He suggested a monitor since I am going 
to build a gaming rig soon. I am also interested in the Novation LaunchPad.

As you can see it is a real dilemma.

Thank You

GET A TABLET THING MAGIG OR A MECH BOARD OR SOMETHING

SUCH PROBLEM MUCH SAD

 Just because you don't care, doesn't mean other others don't. Don't be a self-centered asshole. -Thank You a PSA from the people who do not say random shit on the internet.

What AOC monitor exactly? Or do you Atleast know the specs? Mostly is it IPS and is it minimum 60hz. If it has those go ahead. Make sure you like the LEDs. I know I'm picky with them,
