Hey Geekzone, 

 

Asking for opinions on bang for buck monitors, for vlack friday sales.

 

 

 

I am upgrading from a i7 8700 to 7800X3D from AliExpress which will be unlocking my CPU bound 7900XTX.
Currently I am running a 2nd hand Philips 328P6V 32" 4K LCD Monitor, however, it is 60hz.

I am am shopping for a 27inch 1440p or 32 inch 1440p or 4K monitor that will be able to display a lot higher FPS, maybe 180?

Use cases: Single Player Games, Maybe BF6, Reddit and youtube,

I am looking for suggestions, mostly bang for buck, I have spent a couple of days going over reviews but a lot of models don't have any.

Budget I would like to stay between $300 - $500 but can stretch it.

Appreciate anyone's inputs.

 

Thanks

I've always purchased Dell, current is U2520D but this one will be my last. I'm having problems with the monitor not waking properly on HDMI or DisplayPort signals. My wife's Samsung works fine.

No feedback or experience with this but on paper it seems to be great value at $299
