Hey guys. Ive been a long-time lurker of these forums and have learned almost everything I know about computers from here. Long story short, its finally come time for me to build a new gaming computer. Ive been eyeballing several different monitors, and Id like to ask the board for some help.
Im stuck between an Acer H233H or an ASUS VH242. Ive read copious amounts of reviews on either monitor, and each has its pros and each has its cons. Im leaning more towards the Acer H233H, though thats simply due to the brands name. At one point I was also considering a Dell ST2410, though it was reviewed poorly on several occasions and my interest has since dwindled.
Ive noted that both of these monitors fall under a 23-24 category as well as a $200-$250 price range. The price isnt as much of an issue as is the quality of the monitor. Im going to be gaming with this rig with mild everyday use coming in second, and plan to keep it for a number of years. I dont see myself running any kind of dual or tri-monitor setup down the line, so a single monitor should fit the bill.
Main interests when considering a monitor:
23-24 (1920x1080)
Low response time (for gaming)
Under $300 if possible, though Id much prefer to fork over the cash for a solid monitor that wont flatline on me somewhere in the future. (If the extra cash is warranted, Ill look into it)
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance, these forums have proven to be a superb resource over the years.
