Which monitor would you recommend?




nickdude07


This question is subjective without a perfect answer I know, but I would like some feedback. I am a gamer and work from my monitor as well so I appreciate high resolution. I have a 25.5" Asus monitor (similar to the VW266H but with a 2MP camera) that has 1920x1200 resolution, 2ms response. I have a Gigabyte GTX670 OC that runs all my games (Crysis 1,2, Skyrim, Diablo III, SimCity, Most Wanted 2012, Orcs Must Die 2, StarCraft II) well but I'm wanting a little better monitor or monitors. I have heard that two screens are pointless for gaming because the crosshair ends up being at the edge of both monitors. I've also heard that three monitors can work great but are largely unsupported or buggy among the majority of games. The second issue with three monitors for me is that I don't want to purchase another graphics card until the new Nvidia release next year (depending on specs). So unless someone can convince me to go with three monitors for what I play, I am considering one.
The monitor I have is a matte finish TN panel which is good, but I have been considering VA and IPS panels for their price and features. My budget is about $400 unless again their is considerable reason to save upto about $550 max. I like the 2ms response time on my monitor but 5ms isn't bad in my mind. I like the even color offered by IPS monitors, but true blacks in VA monitors are tempting. I'm torn between the Monoprice 27" IPS 2560x1440 (16:9) monitor and or going with a 120Hz or 3D monitor (that would probably only be 1080p in my budget). I like the 16:10 aspect, but 2560x1440 outdoes my current monitor so I could deal with it as 2560x1600 is out of my budget. Based on the games I play, I am interested to hear any recommendations about monitors in this price range that are great.

Glossy screens don't bother me, and won't be a problem in the room it will be in.

i need help please



Answer
Great computer have, and you need heaps of power. It's always better to future-proof your computer by getting a higher power supply.

If you want a top of the line power supply, look into Corsair's AX series. Something like the AX850 or the AX1200.

In my opinion, Corsair makes the best PSUs. And they are 100% modular, plus the AX series is 80 Plus Gold certified, which means it will deliver 90% efficiency at 50% load.

They're almost quiet, as the fan only spins up according to temperature, and up to 50% load it doesn't spin at all.
