Just finished my PC and I need a new monitor. I don't want to go over 60 dollars so nothing fancy however my PC has no analog out so no vga (unfortunately).

Any suggestions? If you know of something that's even close-ish to my budget that's fine. Thanks for all the help!

 

PS. If it help I'm in the USA

For 60 bucks you'll perhaps get a used/refurbished display.

Light gaming, content consumption, and some hobby work in unreal engine. Nothing to serious.

Just look for any 1080p monitor on craigslist near you in the price range, then compare what you find that suits your needs best (especially content consumption).

Any brands I should stay away from?

I figured Craigslist would be my best bet. But I wanted to see if there was any potato-tastic monitor I could get on Amazon.

Sure, if you're fine with 720p, which I would stay away from.
