At the moment, I'm trying to get some of my peripherals upgraded before the 4th Quarter because by then I'll be wanting to upgrade my actual system. Recently my 19'' Viewsonic died and now I'm having to use a backup 17'' monitor and let me tell you, this thing is just pathetic. I feel like I'm using some sort of Fisher-Price monitor. So, my question to you guys is what monitors would you recommend that are roughly 24''. I've never had one that large before, but from what everyone else says, apparently it's a drastic difference. I mainly use my PC for games so I'll need a fast response time. I have good speakers and a good headset so I don't need mounted speakers, however it wouldn't kill me if they had them because I'd just turn them off.
Basic Rundown:
- Preferably a 2ms.
- 24'' or close to it
- Preferably 1920x1200 but 1920x1080 will be fine too
- Under or around $300
I'll be honest, I'm no guru when it comes to monitors but I know some of the basics. From what I've heard, there are these new monitors that have 8-bit colors or something like that and supposedly they are just amazing, but the drawback is that they have a high response time and I can't have that for my games. I just need to find a happy medium somewhere in there.
One last thing I was going to mention and that is, if there is any sort of new technology for monitors comming soon that might really be worth my while then let me know because even though I'm playing on a tiny monitor, I can wait a few more months if they are comming out with something new.
Here's the one I've been looking at getting:
