Hello there,
I am asking you about what recommendations can you give me about 23-24 inch monitors in the price range of 200$ as I am building myself gaming rig but do not understand much of monitors. Also, please express your opinion and say why you chose the monitor you suggest.
Thanks in advance

I have had excellent experience with the Asus line of monitors I've built with. Here is a selection you can choose from in that price range and size:

I'm assuming you will want one with a 1920x1080 (1080p) resolution. But, depending on the main use of the PC system you are assembling, another resolution may be preferred. Is this for gaming? What processor and graphic card are you intending to use?

Yes, it will be mostly for gaming so I prefer this resolution and I am 99% sure going for an Intel i7-4770 and a GeForce GTX 760(TI).

Well, probably the URL is wrong because I am not from the UK but from Bulgaria. Probably it is just because I am using the uk site, but anyway thanks for advise as I know where to find those monitors here direct from retailer :)

If you are gaming a 4770k will give you a minimal performance increase over the 4670k, as the only difference is a slightly larger cache and hyper threading - both of which have little effect on gaming. I'd recommend you switch your CPU for the i5, and put the extra money toward the GTX 770.

In regards to your question, I would highly recommend Samsung and Dell monitors based on previous experience (although I've also heard good things about Asus)

Dell: http://www.newegg.com/DELL/BrandStore/ID-10772?n-state=http://www.live.dellbtoc.webcollage.net/_wc/showcase/monitors.html~~~G!069F78A2EF2A!4UaqsHzk4KAY8Klkvw%3d%3d~~~~@http://www.live.dellbtoc.webcollage.net/server/newegg/dellbtoc-showcase

I hope this info helps you out!

Well, nice to hear another opinion but i prefer this setup of CPU/GPU because I need this PC to last three years and am not only gaming but also use some pretty demanding applications. I am also currently programming and the program will require as much processing power as possible. However I do not intend to OC and so i have not chosen the unlocked processors

Ok in that case a 4770 will do well...
