It can be done, despite what the other people are saying in here. Here’s one for $229. If you can get it refurbished or Amazon Warehouse, it’ll be below $200. Acer V277U 27" LED LCD Monitor - Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07M9V8XNQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_23DHSQRR452RNNR0KX8S
I would probably have recommend the LG 27UN850-W 27 which according to the reviews has a very high quality and color accurate 4K display with very small bezels and various ports. Alternatively, I would recommend have to recommend the Asus ProArt PA279CV, which is a monitor I use for photo editing and provides a great experience with similar qualities to the LG, except the PA279CV is currently out of stock on a lot of websites.
yes unless is ultra old monitor. check which VESA standart supports your monitor (usually 75x75 or 100x100) and order one.

i have this one the last 2years and is really good!
Here’s a similar one! Jump on it! Acer 27in Widescreen Monitor 16:9 1ms 75HZ WQHD (2560x1440) AMD FreeSync (Renewed) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07BHPTZPZ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_58MKG68G5RJPSJA7H4DT
Was looking at this one but idk if I’m buying way too much monitor, honestly don’t know a lot about monitors tbh
Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the only real difference between that monitor and this one the refresh rate? Would I notice that if I'm not gaming?
Would getting this monitor be overkill? I have the opportunity to get two of them for really cheap on FB marketplace. It looks like they're intended for gaming, but is there any downside to getting 4k monitors for work? I was originally just gonna go with this one.
I've had the Asus and loved it but I game. If it's just for the items above both are great!
I recommend getting a 1440p monitor for video editing reasons and it's not much more but I do understand that budget life!
Recommendation for 1440p: Sceptre IPS 24-Inch QHD LED Business Monitor 2560x1440 1440p DisplayPort HDMI 75Hz 300 Lux Build-in Speakers 2021 Black (E248W-QPT) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0935R8TG3/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_i_4HN02HK03XC8VVTCD2GZ
I've been using a BenQ XL2420G for the last 6-7 years and although I've read that IPS and VA has gotten better, I didn't want to take any chances.
So far these are the only two reasonably priced 1440p 144hz 1ms 27 inch TN Monitors I could find.
I went with the ASUS one which was $279 new when I ordered it a couple of days ago, seems to have gone up to $309 at the time of this reply.
Since I had this same issue, trying to connect my gaming pc with DisplayPort to my 1st gen LG 4k UltraFine, I purchased the DeLock 63928 cable from Amazon UK (had to import it to the States), and it works great. No sound, brightness, or USB, but video works great.
PS - Not sure if you already do this, but to maximize that Legion of yours...
I got the ASUS TUF VG27AQ1A during Black Friday, and I'm really enjoying it.
Colors pop, but don't ask me about accuracy. I don't have the kind of eye for that.
Keep in mind you can use any monitor you like as long as it has a VESA mount. You can add an aftermarket stand like this for greater customization.

Idk what your specs are but this is an amazing monitor I picked up a month ago and it's IPS.
Sceptre 32 inch QHD IPS LED Monitor HDR400 2560x1440 HDMI DisplayPort up to 144Hz 1ms Height Adjustable, Build-in Speakers Gunmetal Black 2021 (E325B-QPN168) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08VTW474P/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glc_i_96YTQW0KR8BSS64JY0FJ
Here's my monitor: Acer XF270HU
1440p, 27 inches, 144hz, 1ms response time, and its a good ips panel.
I have had absolutely no issues with it
It doesnt have gsync but I haven't noticed any issues at all with an nvidia card
When i Bought it it was about $350 (3 years ago) so you can probably find a better monitor at that price range atm. but I'm honestly not sure what else you'd need from a 1440p monitor. its the perfect size, you don't really need much more that 144hz either unless you play some super optimized triple AAA games. GL on your search
Also for /u/Cia0312
I ended up going with the alienware, and honestly couldn't be happier. I also got this monitor stand for my desk to support all 3 monitors https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B079NNC2YQ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1.
And, it is AMAZING. I have so much room under my monitors for stuff, and no clunky stand bases in the way.
There is only 15 reviews for this monitor. I suggest you find an reputable brand

The gigabyte aorus fv43u fits all your criteria. It has superior color accuracy and as a bonus supports HDR 1000 certified meaning it can get incredibly bright which is great for gaming/media consumption.
Ah my bad, yeah the msi is the same panel as the samsung I believe which is honestly the main reason I didn't get it despite wanting a VA. The monitor I have is this one: LG 34GN850-B 34 Inch 21: 9 UltraGear Curved QHD (3440 x 1440) 1ms Nano IPS Gaming Monitor with 144Hz and G-SYNC Compatibility - Black (34GN850-B) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B086XLLG28/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_VNZ67HEG0E55TGTD922D?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
I like it and the backlight bleed really isn't that bad. You could also go with the LG C1. I have heard a lot of people use that as a monitor. As long as the room isn't too bright, you'd get better color and contrast.
https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-VG279Q1A-Supports-Adaptive-sync-DisplayPort/dp/B08LCPKS6G
I bought this one for about $250 back in March. Its a 27 inch 144hz 1080p monitor. I have a 1660 ti and it works perfectly for my setup. I made the jump from an old acer monitor and it was night and day. They have a few models in 24 inches as well if 27 inches is too big for you and bigger if need be
i was thinking about this one https://www.amazon.com/LG-27GN800-B-Ultragear-Response-Compatible/dp/B08LLD2QXJ , but i heard that it doesn't look good in a dark room, so its quite problematic beacuse i prefer to play games in the dark
I don't know if it will work in your case, but back home I bought a desktop stand (no clamping/making a hole) that I offset to the side and that keeps the main (front) monitor maybe 2" away from the wall (the arm is flush on the wall, and basically straight... and the monitor flush on it).
I have the other ~30^^o on the left, so that has some space behind it, but yeah~
If you're already using 150% scaling with a 27 inch 1080p display, then you might have to scaled as much as 200% with a 32inch display at 4k, or more. For me, a 27inch 4k display is small but comfortable at 150%, so for you that would probably mean 200+.
4K will definitely improve text clarity, but everything will feel smaller. However due to the monitor size increase and resolution increase, you will have more screen real estate to work with. My feeling is text clarity will definitely help you, clarify is almost more important to me than actual font size.
A better compromise might be a 32inch QHD panel, 2560x1440 LG 32inch QHD
I run a 1440p on my laptop with the Quadro equivalent of a 2060ti
Its been really good to me i get 60-100fps on most games on high settings. I use the LG 27QN600
please let me know about your review,
I have in mind buy the latest lg 27 https://www.amazon.com/LG-27UP850-W-DisplayHDR-Virtually-Borderless/dp/B08YJMMYBX/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=LG+27UP850-W&qid=1639005209&sr=8-1 but now I found this 32, my big question, is if this 32 is the same as the 27 but bigger? same specs, quality?
Not sure if you have to sign up for Honey, but I checked the price history and it looks like it's almost always $350. It just spiked up in price recently, so maybe wait a couple days/weeks until it goes down! Link here
Didn't mean to spread false info, I just figured that was the case. By the way, any particular reason you're going with 4k 60hz instead of a higher refresh rate?
Was also looking at this. Maybe a better option?
Given your use case, I wouldn't look at monitor arms which are designed for 27''-32'' monitors. The Odyssey's a tv, plain and simple. Therefore, I'd look at Tv stands and arms instead.
Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Mount-Extension-Articulating-800x400mm-Compatible/dp/B07SFWDXBW/ref=sr\_1\_2\_sspa?keywords=43%27+dual+tv+arm
Yea I know, my current monitor made sense when I bought it in 2016. Trust me I want to upgrade my GPU, I just refuse to pay $1000 for a 3060ti... hopefully 1 year from now supply issues will be better.
So, hypothetically, I picked up the Alienware for $200 today - is it worth keeping over my current Dell? Do you think the colors will be a lot better on the IPS panel?

It's replacing my XB271hu which is starting to have osd menu malfunctions. It's a great price considering what I paid for the acer a few years ago!

But the thing kinda worrying me is the gl being some massive downgrade over the gp, so hoping someone settles that for me.
You can get this Alienware 240hz Used Like New from Amazon for $190
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B087N4LQPN
I just copped one myself and made a post trying to see if it not having BFI is that big of a deal, which I would think at 240hz probably isn't.
Would something like this work? for $24
https://www.amazon.com/North-Bayou-Monitor-Computer-14-3lbs/dp/B01AI2YGK4?ref_=ast_sto_dp
It's within the weight limit and cheap. I gave a different model of these North Bayou mounts to my buddy after using a pair for around 7 years. I had one holding a 32" monitor as well.
I switched to the amazon branded ergotron lx arms but I was happy with the elcheapos even if the range was less.
Dell Curved Gaming Monitor 34 Inch Curved Monitor with 144Hz Refresh Rate, WQHD (3440 x 1440) Display, Black - S3422DWG https://www.amazon.com/dp/B095X7RV77/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_SF0VXNX2M972MYDA87S5?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
I can wholeheartedly recommend the BenQ EX2780Q. I've owned mine for around a year and it's a fantastic monitor. 1440p, 144Hz, HDR (it's alright but nothing special), built in speakers which are very good quality for built in ones (2 speakers at the front and a sub in the back). I personally use third party speakers but if you're not one desperate for perfect audio they are definitely passable.
For anything you're going to run at 144Hz, then use a DisplayPort cable - I can't recall it coming with one (it comes with a HDMI one) so I'd recommend picking one up as well, but this would be well within your budget. It also has USB-C usage as well.
I purchased it from Amazon and it arrived with no backlight bleed and zero dead pixels. Obviously with any large IPS monitor back light bleed is possible but not always the case.
One other thing! You'd mentioned you'd be using it for YouTube and Netflix - it comes with a remote control for the monitor settings and volume (as well as having a volume scroll wheel under the monitor) that might be useful for yourself!
Here's the Amazon link if you want to take a look, and this is the full spec from the BenQ Website with a little more information!

This is what I ordered. Thoughts? It was 200€
I haven’t seen anything 4K 27” within my price range. Amazon has already started Black Friday and my options are quite limited in Denmark.
I use a BenQ EX2780Q and I love it. It's 1440p (2560 x 1440), 144Hz, HDR and has great blacks. I don't know if I got lucky but next to no backlight bleed and no dead pixels. Also, it comes with a remote as well which is handy if you're not up for fiddling with the buttons on the monitor. Not that I use them, but it also has a pretty decent built in speaker. I'd recommend the monitor if you're not looking for something that's coated in 'Gamer' decal.
That Amazon link I've provided has different model variants as I believe there are newer models that have come out, but it's good bang for your buck.
I found MSI G241
The Asus seems to have a better refresh rate and be less expensive (In my country at least) . It also has built-in speakers, has G-sync, which the AOC doesn’t. The Asus is also brighter and has one more DVI port (the DVI port part isn’t really important but I wanted to add that)
I used this website to find this info: https://pangoly.com/en/compare/monitor/asus-vg248qg-24-vs-aoc-c24g1-23-6
Eh, I think that more real estate is always better - personally I am at 27/23 now and looking to move to 32/27 - that said I am a heavy Excel user and your mileage may vary in other apps (Excel more biased against narrow screens due to how its menu bar works). By the way - MS PowerToys is invaluable for horizontal screens since it allows you to adjust the snap-to behavior for each screen independently.
I wall mounted it! Used this one but mostly because I only had one stud to work with. It's been great either way and very stable.
It's fhd at 32" at 60hz and only 250 nits brightness, I would not recommend it–if you are looking for a productivity monitor I would go with this monitor (600nzd), it looks really good and has a lot of screen real estate for analytics. What's your budget? I would
Hi! If I were you I wouldn't go with that monitor–it has really goos specs, but it uses invalid panels (panels that samsung or another manufacturer made but couldn't sell the because of dead pixels, strobing, backlight bleed, unfixable colour, and other problems). So other off brands resell them. Personally, I would go with this acer monitor, it's got the same specs but VA (still looks really good and probably better than this monitor as it has a certified panel).
i bought this one
https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B08SR5V1ZN/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s01?ie=UTF8&th=1
extremely happy with it, because it has eye care and diminished blue light in options
my eyes dont hurt anymore after coding several hours
if its not available get one with low blue light
> you could look at Ultrawide 1440p monitors
I took some time to think about the options and I am thinking about 1440p ultrawide, with a revised budget of 700 to 1000
I am thinking about getting the LG UltraGear 34GP83A-B 34
Would that be a good monitor or would it be overspending? What else would you recommend?
I decided not to go 4k as I don't want to keep upgrading my gpu every year to push the frame rate as games get more intensive
I have Acer XB273B SBMIPRZX. https://www.amazon.com/Acer-XB273K-Sbmiprzx-Certified-DisplayHDR/dp/B07X962HL8
This is by far the best monitor I had. The only downside it's IPS glow (not so visible, but it's there. I don't mind the glow, because I use this monitor for Gaming. If you take if for gaming, you will not regret it.
The G-Sync controller makes crazy smooth.
I highly recommend getting this monitor https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B099NYLFYX/ref=ox_sc_act_image_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1
I got it and love it so far! I have been using it for 4 months now highly recommend!
I bought this one on Amazon a few months ago, and I like it a lot actually. 27", 1440p, 1ms, IPS, 144hz. It's the same as the 850 variant, except it comes with a shittier stand. However I have my own mount so I didn't care about that.
Our Viotek GFI27DBXA would be a better comparison for $130.01 cheaper than the LG. This monitor is a 27" 1440p IPS 600 CD/M²
Maybe the ASUS ROG Strix XG27UQ? 144hz, 4K. $700 though...
If you're using it for consoles as well, maybe even just consider a 43 inch TV? Something like this TCL: TCL 43 inch
Or of course there's the LG C1 48 inch that would be excellent for all those uses. I'm suggesting small because you asked for a monitor, so I'm assuming it will go on a desk or in a work area.
Pretty much nobody makes 24" 1440p anymore. If you want the higher pixel density, consider a 27" 2160p/4k 144 Hz monitor. If you just want the size, then get a 24" 1440p monitor, maybe 280 Hz or similar to get more out of your rig.
But if you're adamant on getting 24" 1440p though, then there's the Dell S2417DG. It's an older TN monitor with native G-Sync. I probably wouldn't recommend it nowadays (a lot of better options for a similar price albeit not 24"), but here it is, and it seems to perform decently.
Something like this
It can go flat I just gotta move to the right a bit
Is the Monitor being flush against the wall the only thing you're looking for?
This can be done a mount similar to this : https://www.amazon.com/VideoSecu-Monitor-Screen-Maximum-Loading/dp/B000VKCIJU/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=flat+monitor+mount&qid=1632944955&sr=8-3
If you're looking for an 'Arm' type of mount that might not be doable, or at least to what you may be expecting.
Very unlikely you'll find what you're looking for with a built-in camera. I would suggest removing that from your criteria and there will be a lot more options. Here's one to check out.
The easiest way would be a Type-C >> DisplayPort cable, but they'll cost around the same as the monitor also...
This is the one I would recommend: <strong>Amazon Link</strong> but you're welcome to look at cheaper alternatives, I cannot however vouch for the performance of a cable I do not know, like this: <strong>Amazon Link</strong>
Ok well, I haven’t had time to do much research, but I think this would be good if you’re okay with a 144hz monitor https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B08CS3X1R9?tag=rtings-c-mn-20&ie=UTF8 or else, I think the VG27AQ1A would be great for your needs.
I’m Canadian, the S2721DGF often comes in sale, I payed 480$ for it. And also here’s the M27Q: https://www.amazon.ca/Gigabyte-Monitor-Display-Response-FreeSync/dp/B08JWCHR5N, it’s sold in Canada but not in stock anymore…
We offer a similar monitor to about $177 less than the LG might be worth looking at. The model is VIOTEK GFI27DBXA. This is an IPS display with a 600CD/M² and is also 1440p.
Besides from cutting a hole in the back of the desk, you can something along the lines of https://www.amazon.com/HUANUO-Dual-Monitor-Stand-Adjustable/dp/B08DJ5ZRRK/ref=pd_d_dss_r_4/146-4802928-7759538?pd_rd_w=GUTPR&pf_rd_p=2ceaf4c5-78dd-42a3-ace9-8320ff7ed390&pf_rd_r=YR9J92RQSKDH94MCFCKM&pd_rd_r=37332225-d8ee-40c6-b8d0-34a806d2ab32&pd_rd_wg=wzTox&pd_rd_i=B08DJ5ZRRK&psc=1
If you went this route, I would suggest using double sided tape/velcro tape to make it a bit more stable.
There are also ground mounted stands.

Heya, you can check out northbayou. Decent price and reliable.
Not affiliated link btw.
I ended up going with the LG 27UK670-B 27'' 16:9 4K Ultra HD IPS Monitor (Amazon). It was a bit more than $300 but seems like a solid, future-proof monitor. I'll report back on how it is!
Looking for something similar for my GF. Idk if you can get access to this, but this monitor is what im currently looking at. 100% sRBG, 99% AdobeRGB, and 91% DCI-P3. Also has a 24” model for cheaper, but same specs.
ConceptD CP1 CP1271 - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08HSHWW39/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_VHGXSHFH7WSDKNK1BRHW
Can't recommend a monitor but I can recommend this. Especially if you read in a dark room.
Get a USB LED strip off amazon (I have this) and string it behind your monitors facing the wall. The illuminated wall will help reduce eyestrain.
This is called Bias Lighting if your curious: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bias_lighting
The Acer XB323U GX is pretty good so far. Got it on Amazon for $750 on a sale + It was mislabeled on Amazon so they gave extra $100 for the inconvenience for a total of $650. It's been definitely worth it so far from what I've used. Only thing is no G-sync but my 3090 hasn't had many issues with it.
Edit : it looks like it's being scalped for $200 above original price for whatever reason
Thanks again ! I actually went ahead and ordered a used-very good condition XG270QC ( https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07VKPWYQ5/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 ) . If that doesnt turn out well I think i'll just get a new G27QC-A then
Just wanted to add, I found a monitor on Amazon that is decently priced, portable, and is 144hz. Do you all recommend?

Yeah for sure Right now amazon! ULTRA GEAR series !!!
I got mine !! so worth it at QHD or 2560x1440 ,, makes ur system work 4x as hard vs HD but the clarity is so damn good at this resolution and ur rtx will sit pretty here. The monitor itself has speakers built in, dunno why u dont have speakers but thats cool.. This is usually a 379$ monitor now its 269 limited time, I got the B edition which im not sure whats even better about it lol. It had HDR which makes colors look sweet. Im not all critical about monitors. I see these critics talkn about bleed, artifacts, color showing through monitor.. im like these fools r nuts, on a monitor theres only color quality, and . and.. size, and refresh rate, really! .. ive been gaming since nintendo and still am going strong. Let me know what you think, watch the demo video for Ultra gear, its SIC, i was blown away thinking, Is that a game?? can i buy it lol :X
​
i know u in uk so check uk's amazon.

Kay, Ive done some research and found out that AORUS FI27Q-X 27" might be the one ;) bit pricy, but reviews r excellent.
here’s a good one it has HDR for great picture quality, makes movies look great. 165hz, 1ms response time for minimal ghosting, 1440p, and adaptive sync for no screen tearing.
Can anyone recommend a monitor that has the following specs? I play a lot of Red Dead 2 on an Nvidia RTX 2060 and want an upgrade from my MSI 24'' 1080p monitor. I don't really play games competitively but a low latency is still preferred.
1440p 30-34 inches HDR ready 1-4ms Curved screen, preferably 1000r or 1500r. (I have 1800r right now in a 24 inch)
Around $450-500 CAD.
These are two I've been contemplating. Any opinions on whether this would be good for gaming?
After a lot of thought and reading, I just bought this one:
https://www.amazon.com/BenQ-EX2510-Monitor-FreeSync-Speakers/dp/B08FF6DJNP
My priorities were reading/surfing, and FPS shooter gaming. I didn't consider art though, so you may find it lacking for that purpose.
It hasn't arrived yet so I can't talk about my experience with it. I didn't really help, i just added ANOTHER monitor to think about :D
M27Q seems to fit your criteria, it comes with a KVM as well. only caveat is that the panel it uses has a bgr layout instead of rgb, and some people say this affects text clarity.
(rtings review)
I'm not sure about the pd output for it is, though, could be lower than 60W
Thank you so much friend! All the amazing advice you gave here was echoed in the Monitor discord chat -I ordered the EX2510 a couple of days ago! Hopefully will be good and was recommended for exactly your same reasons (IPS fast enough these days plus great colors and doesn't have VA cons, that monitor good with eye strain and fast, nice for games and productivity etc.)
Pixel density is exactly what I was thinking - 1080p over way more area. So would you say a 24" monitor is then showing a "worse quality" image than a 15.6" at the same res.? Should it look better overall on a newer/better monitor?
Yeah 1440 looks like is tough to run even with nicer graphics cards, plus a good amount more expensive, so I'd think 1080p is way to go in this situation probably(?)
To make your search easier, maybe consider getting an RCA (which I assume is the GameCube cable) to HDMI converter (something like this)? I'm not sure how well it would work, but in theory, this should allow you to use any HDMI + VGA compatible monitor instead of one that also supports RCA.
So IPS monitor have gotten fast enough where they are fine for non competitive gaming then?
I'd be happy to get an IPS, guess I'm just worried about eye strain...
Btw, I hooked up my brother older TN monitor (<strong>Asus VS248</strong>) to see how it is using an external - I tried running CS:GO - it stutters for some reason (also desktop and stuff look quite washed out, and even harder to focus on text)
There are plenty available on Amazon. Try this one, it's not exorbitant and I've been using their stands for years (but do NOT get the 4 monitor one, it's hot garbage).
AORUS FI27Q
AORUS FI27Q 27" 165Hz 1440P NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible IPS Gaming Monitor, Built-in ANC, 2k Display, 1 ms Response Time, HDR, 95% DCI-P3, 1x Display Port 1.2, 2X HDMI 2.0, 2X USB 3.0 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07Z1F86KV/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_5CXR3HJDP8KPBMTP14RY
If you're in the New England area, I have a 34" 1440x3440 IPS display that I'd love to sell you for exactly that price. Has built in speakers and a two-output KVM built in, great for working-from-home.
EDIT - And if you're not... $250 is tough, if that's a hard limit. There's a lot of things I can suggest for like $325 and under. This guy seems pretty good https://www.amazon.com/LG-27QN600-B-FreeSync-Virtually-Borderless/dp/B089NZCLHW/ref=sr\_1\_3?dchild=1&keywords=lg+27%22+1440p&qid=1622145466&sr=8-3
Got it, found it on Amazon.com as well. I'll just need to measure the max extension compared to the one I currently have to confirm it will actually give me the extension I need.
I don't think I'll mount them on top of each other, my neck will strain too much.
i have this one and is very good and flexible.. the only difference with the one you want to pick is that with this mount you can have your monitors the one above the other too and not only in the sides. i would go for this one
Viewsonic has some decent panels, I have this one for myself and it’s been doing a good job, not too much BLB or IPS Glow and it’s good color
ViewSonic VX2768-2KP-MHD 27 Inch... https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B08ND5PHND?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
I think it is not the same model. pbmiiprzx Amazon link
I just got the new Predator X34 as my no compromises monitor (switching from a 144Hz 1440p 27" plus a 60Hz 1440x3440 UW 34"). Can recommend, great experience.
This is probably one of the only ones I even know of. They don't make 19inch monitors no more so it's very hard to get one new. Enjoy!
Don't know much about the Windows settings, but gonna drop a very functional cable here:

Here’s this one HP M27ha FHD Monitor - Full HD Monitor (1920 x 1080p) - IPS Panel and Built-in Audio - VESA Compatible 27-inch Monitor Designed for Comfortable Viewing with Height and Pivot Adjustment - (22H94AA#ABA) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08DJB7VVY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_RTZMKH0735ACE66SBBYG
so i think i’m gonna end up getting this alienware
whatcha think?
also, in walmart i found an acer predator xb237. 0.1ms, 240hz but a 1920x1080 resolution
it’s that one. how does that one compare to the acer and aoc from earlier? found it in walmart for $369, so more than 100 less than amazon!
no prob! check this if you want a dual monitor setup

did he specify what resolution he was playing on? if its was 1080p VIOTEK GFV24CB 24 Inch 165Hz Gaming Monitor (Supports 144hz) 1920 x 1080p FHD High Color 4000:1 Contrast 98% sRGB VA Panel Display Near Bezelless Frame GSYNC, FreeSync, DisplayPort, HDMI, VESA https://www.amazon.com/dp/B092DT75WX/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_MMVA6GR9HZ8VAXP8VAFD?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

I picked the LG 27gp83b but you cant go wrong with the one above either
im not sure if that build can do 160Hz as the GPU seems to be a few years old? If we use your PS5 as a benchmark as it can do 4k/60Hz & 1080p/120Hz, the best buy would be a monitor that can do 1080/144 Hz. unless you want to do some 4k/60Hz gaming, I would recommend this monitor
Acer Nitro VG240Y Pbiip 23.8 Inches Full HD (1920 x 1080) IPS Gaming Monitor with AMD Radeon FreeSync Technology, Zero Frame, 144Hz, 1ms VRB, (2 x HDMI 2.0 Ports & 1 x Display Port), Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07VFPYRP3/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_061NZE30T0S4QCT01YG2
If you want to future proof your monitor while maintaining budget and will upgrade to 1080p/165Hz, the Acer Nitro XV240Y is a good alternative to the link above
This one is great and cheap but the price has fluctuated recently

Can you find out the speed of the ram in that desktop? You want it to be at least 3000.
i have this monitor, I use it for work. it has a headphone jack for speakers/soundbar, and pretty cheap. ASUS VY249HE 23.8” https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08K2LNCHM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_RJ8PYT405WTJMTK1GBGF
