Hey guys, I juste had someone, on this website, build me a gaming pc ! If you want a preview : http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/yFPkD8
My budget was 1000$ canada. (Im still open for better change for my computer piece). Now im looking for the best monitor I can get for my budget! Right now I have a dell monitor 23" inches but it's old (4-5 years maybe) I did not manage to find the name of the monitor. Anyway id like a gaming monitor that goes with a black and blue setup and that isn't over 250$ canadian!

Thanks to everyon answering.

As far as monitors go, here's a nice choise between 2 monitors,

1. 27", 60Hz, 4ms, BenQ GW2760HS ($219.99)

2. 24", 144Hz, 1ms, Acer GN246HL ($249.90)
pcpp: http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/product/PmyFf7/acer-monitor-umfg6aab01

Acer does better in FPS games but it's smaller and more expensive than BenQ.
BenQ does better in any other game, except FPS games. Also the color corrections are better in BenQ since it's 60Hz.

Also, modified your build a little.
Changed MoBo and put in a better CPU while bringing the build cost down by $22.

Thanks man !

 
That's a nice case,i wouldn't want such a buttugly motherboard in that.
Do you have a 5ghz band router? If not can you save money on the wifi card as well

Something still under $1100,-

changed the psu to an imo better one.
Changed the case to the same but normal black one,
a larger ssd,
changed the wifi card for a good performing one,i know i own it,but this one doesn't support the 5ghz band,
better looking motherboard with better features,
changed ram as well .. really what didn't i change :)

Cheaper options for a monitor,

The Benq seems good for the price.
 



Can I change all you said except for the case? I really like the case !

And my wifi is ac so I prefer a ac wifi adpter so I can have all the power that the router can give me
 

Sure you could,it imo just didn't feel right to use the partly green mobo with that bleu in the case,but that's my opinion. 😉



That's understandable.:)
