What do you think is the best monitor for gaming?

Chummmleee · Nov 20, 2013

I was looking at the 27' BenQ Monitor But that's fairly pricey, If you would look at my specs on the left and tell me what you'd think would suit me well. That'd be great..

i7 + Titan?

1200, 1440 or 1600p IPS monitor, whichever is within budget (either go South Korean, or look at Asus and Dell IPS as they seem to offer the best quality)

I can recommend the HP ZR30w. Great picture quality and no issues while gaming. Your system will handle that. My 2600k system handles it with the 7970 (OC'ed to 1100/1400 when needed for Crysis3, everything else(Borderlands2/CoD4/MechWarriorOnline,...) stock 925/1375) and gets anywhere from 40 to +60 fps(35-40 for Crysis3/highsettings).
