Best monitors for me? Recommendations please :)!

[caleb12134]

Hi all. I am looking for a great monitor with the following specs/features: BTW I have a titan graphics card brand new so my graphics card can handle it.


Three 27" IPS panel monitors with the following:
1.) Super slim bezel (almost non-existent bezel to allow smooth flow between all three monitors)
2.) Ultra thin body to conserve space and be aesthetically pleasing
3.)Vesa Mount
4.) Built in speakers
5.) Great picture with super fast response time for gaming, programming, 3d rendering
6.) 2 HDMI ports (I'd consider a monitor with 1 HDMI port)
7.) good resolution to prevent grainy images and other like issues
8.) under $400

**Please only monitors that fit at least numbers 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, and 8. Thank you so much!


UPDATE: I see. I am new to monitor market 😛. At the very least I am looking for a monitor that covers 1, 3, 5, and preferably 8. But if not 8 i'd be open to it. No way above 650 though haha.

First off, I want to say that I have a Titan Black graphics card, and I play around with programming and 3D rendering (hence the Titan Black ). I don't play games, though. (Unless you count my Atari 2600 emulator. My Titan Black feels so underused!)

I have a 27" monitor with a super-slim bezel, speakers (they're not that great), a decent picture, 5ms response time, 1080p resolution, and an HDMI port. It's the ASUS VN279Q, and right now it's on sale at Newegg for $194.99 (after 10% off promo code and $30 rebate).

I'm not sure if this is what you want, but I thought I'd bring you're attention to it. I have never seen it this cheap, either (I paid $30 more for mine).

The thing is, you're kind of asking for the Holy Grail 😛 You're basically saying you want a display with all of the most amazing specs available, but at the cost of an entry-level IPS display. There is simply no monitor that will do all of those at the same time in existence today.

There are some very good options if you're willing to sacrifice some conditions, though. If you can sacrifice high resolutions and response time, there are some good IPS displays out there that should sell for under $400. You can also go with a TN panel at 1080p144Hz, but that sacrifices image quality. Something like the Overlord Tempest can do 1440p120Hz with a good image quality IPS, but its over the $400 budget and it requires overclocking.

In the end, it's just too hard to recommend anything unless we know what else we can compromise, since something that satisfies all of those requirements just does not exist today.

Also note that a single GTX Titan (and maybe even two of them) won't be able to run even 5760x1080 at 60FPS, so a 120Hz monitor may not be necessary.

Right, I forgot it was triple 😛 Thanks for the correction.
