Planning to buy a new monitor good for 4K Gaming in the future.

I am going to buy/planning to get a new monitor good for future 4K gaming.

I just need the right, cheap one for it.

There is no cheap 4k monitor right now. The ones that are out are like over $3000.

What do you think of 4k tvs are they better than monitors.What is the difference between TV and monitor except from TV channels?

 

[lostmenoggin]

The biggest difference is pixel size. TV's have bigger screens typically and are meant for sitting farther back. For example you have a 22" monitor and a 32" tv, both @ 1080p. The TV is going to have larger pixels which you may or may not notice when your eyes are like 18" back from the screen. Also input lag, the delay between the television or monitor receiving a signal and it being displayed on the screen, is typically higher on TVs.

Even the 30" monitors?

Many tv's have very high input lag. I am using my ps3 connected to 23" fhd monitor and when i hooked up this console to my friend's tv it was a total mess. I couldn't play it! when i had done something on my pad, tv showed it after 0.5 sec... Nothing like that on my outdated TN monitor ...

Thx! good to know but if u use multiple monitors
u will have that ugly plastic space inbetween.If there is a way to remove it??? it would be awesome!
But what about the refresh rate? some tvs have 2000hz 2500hz or even more?How do they do it and would the refresh rate work with a PC→hdmi→Tv? connection?So what do you think?

 

[jabuscus]

Yup.

No, I mean the normal 30" monitors.
Or are there any lower than 30" 4k monitors?

 

[lostmenoggin]

There are some monitors that have virtually no bezel. As for the 2000hz refresh read this..

You can get a 30 inch 2560x1440 for $1k or less.

I didn't mean lower resolution; I mean lower than 30 inches.

Nice monitor. What kind of games you play?

 

[BesteverFTW]

I'd research this topic a LOT MORE before just buying the first monitor I see on Amazon and when I know all I need to choose the best monitor for Myself I would search in several shop search engines to find the cheapest deal for the monitor I've chosen as the best for Me

Psssst! the monitors arent even 4K lol

 

[lostmenoggin]

I think he's just posting alternatives that wont break the bank. Given the current price 4k is out of the question.

Mostly FPS/TPS games like Battlefield, GTA, CoD, etc.
