Need a good monitor for my new rig!

[paul_676]

Ok so ive build my pc which is

now im just after a nice monitor to go with it. i mainly enjoy playing FPS games so im just wondering would it be worth going for a 3D monitor for the higher refresh rate? or sticking with a 60hz and getting good quality?

My budget is no more then £200 ($326.84)

any good suggestions?

I personally like BenQ's monitors since I have good experience with them. http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/benq-monitor-gw2750hm

For FPS games.... go with refresh rate. BenQ & Asus both have 120Hz/144Hz panels that will be able to deliver every last ounce of performance out of that GPU. Both are in your budget at the 24" size and you might have some luck with the 27" 1080p 144Hz panels also.

If you want 144hz this is the only one under 200 pounds on UK pcpartpicker

Or you can get 27" for about the same price

Yes that's a really good monitor for Gaming, I would definitely go for that

Yeah looks good.

what makes it so good?

what makes it so good?

First size is great 27", Second the Brightness 350cd/m2, and lastly the Refresh rate is 144Hz, so your monitor will actually be able to run with GPU running at true 60+FPS.

I might just squeeze the extra £25 out my pocket for the benQ if its worth it

The Acer has exactly the same specs as the BenQ, so go with the Acer one its cheaper and has a bigger screen.
