There are way too many variables you're leaving up to us right now. How big of a screen do you want? How high of a resolution do you want?

Are you playing competitively? You will want something with a fast refresh rate, otherwise you may want a 1440p or even 4k monitor for more impressive graphics. I have left out 4k since you're playing CSGO and Fortnite which would benefit more from a high framerate than 4k display.

Here are a few choices. If you have the highest end version of the laptop I would go for the third option. If your laptop does not already support 120hz video display the first option is what I would prefer.

(Free upgrade if you have room for larger monitor)

Best if you don't have any guests coming over to watch (TN panels have bad viewing angles, but even faster response times)
