cheapest 27 inch monitor

Solution
Again... not necessarily true. People say that.. but to the average person... the pixel density isn't that much of an issue depending on your distance... and many times you can't even tell. A larger pixel density does not always mean a better picture will be shown. For example, if you compared a 27" top of the line display costing a fortune with another 27" generic no-name brand that has a greater pixel density than the first monitor... I'm willing to bet in a head to head comparison... the former will more than likely outclass that that no-name generic brand... especially if the generic has cheaper parts inside.

Everyone has their own opinion... and preferences... but there is one thing you forgot to take into consideration...
I disagree with you... some times it's better having a larger monitor. If someone mostly watches videos surfs the internet... a bigger monitor is actually better. Everyone has different needs... just because one person doesn't approve in something... it doesn't mean that applies to everyone.



 
If you check on Amazon... you'll find 27" monitors starting around $180... However, if you really want to pay less you could consider buying a used one. I recently sold my 27" monitor a couple of weeks ago on Craigslist for $130... so you can definitely find a good deal every once in a while.
 


Okay, that's perfectly fine.

It doesn't change the fact that the larger monitor has worse picture quality. Period. Maybe having less pixel density is good for some reason, but that doesn't mean that it gives you a better picture.

Maybe you want that, but there's nothing wrong with me checking to see that the OP realized that a 27" monitor means worse image quality.

This one I got over the holidays, nice monitor, don't think I'll be moving back to smaller one's anymore as I do a lot photo editing and design.

Pros: Great features, and settings, great for games.
Con: Bearable ghosting outside games.

Good Luck!
