Relatively cheap computer speakers?

I just bought the Dell S2716DG on sale for $499 and this is going to be my first 144Hz monitor along with G-Sync and 1ms response time.

 

Unfortunately, the monitor doesn't have any built-in speakers and I don't use headphones either. I was wondering if anyone can recommend me a relatively cheap pair of speakers just so I can have sound when gaming.

ummm relatively cheap is very different from person to person.

I think the Monitor audio bronze 2s are relatively cheap for what you get, while you might think that they are very expensive.

A budget is needed here or else you are going to get recommendations that goes from 20$ -1000$...

Before you buy amp and dac.  My thoughts on the M50x  Ultimate Ears Reference monitor review I might have a thing for audio...

My main Headphones and IEMs:  K612 pro, HD 25 and Ultimate Ears Reference Monitor, HD 580 with HD 600 grills

DAC and AMP: RME ADI 2 DAC

Speakers: Genelec 8040, System Audio SA205

Receiver: Denon AVR-1612

Desktop: R7 1700, GTX 1080  RX 580 8GB and other stuff

Laptop: ThinkPad P50: i7 6820HQ, M2000M. ThinkPad T420s: i7 2640M, NVS 4200M

Yeah your right. I just went ahead and ordered the z200 from Logitech. It had good reviews, good sound quality, and was what I was looking for.

Yeah, I am using them right now. They're fine indeed. Nothing special. I would describe them as good enough'. And frankly that's an achievement for $20.
