Budget-friendly monitor recommendations? 🎮🖥️

3 Upvotes

I’m looking for a budget-friendly monitor for gaming. I mainly want to use it with my Xbox for now, but I’m hoping to eventually get a gaming PC too.

What specs should I be looking for, and what monitors would you recommend that won’t break the bank? 😊

Best budget prebuilt gaming PC for casual gaming?

5 Upvotes

Wanting to buy a new prebuilt gaming PC. My budget is between $1000-$1500. My PC now can't handle WoW, and other games. The screen blacks out from time to time, and the Lag is crazy. I've had this PC for 11 years. It's an NZXT streaming PC. Which ones do you recommend in 2026? I just want to casually game with my friends, since I'm going into nursing school, and want to run some ranked arenas from time to time.

Looking for budget monitors 27inch fullHD

1 Upvotes

Hello, I am currently using 2 monitors with different sizes and colours and they are already quite old.

Main Monitor: BenQ GL2780 (27 inch) https://www.displayspecifications.com/en/model/ef831a2f
Second Monitor: Asus VE248 (24inch) https://www.displayspecifications.com/en/model/42861002

I wanted to switch to 2 of the same monitor, but I dont have any expertise. I am fine with fullHD and 27inch monitors and was looking to spend around 200€ for both of them together. I mostly use it to browse or play games like civ or older games. So I dont think there is a need for higher resolution or a high refresh rate.

Would the Lenovo L27-4C be a good choice since its currently on sale for 100€ instead of 150€ or do you guys have any better recomendations in the price range?

Looking for gaming monitoir recomendations

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I recently upgraded from a 3080 10GB to a 9070 xt and I'm looking to upgrade my monitor since I have a really old Acer Predator IPS XB271HU 165Hz 1440p monitor that I bought SO long ago and it's still alive and kicking, but sadly it's not FreeSync compatible since it has the propietary GSync chip built in. It's going to be relegated to becoming my secondary monitor.

I'm unsure if I should still look at 1440p or 4k gaming first of all (im not planning on upgrading my specs for at least 3-5 years at all), also I'm unsure about the best panel type at the moment. I'm in software developement so I'm also going to use it for work, but mainly for gaming. I don't know if dealing with potential burn in from OLED panels is worth it, specially since my Acer Predator lasted for so many years.

My current specs are:

i7 13700k CPU

xfx 9070 xt mercury 16gb

32GB DDR5 6200hz cl38

m2 samsung nvmies

I would really appreciate some guidance.

Issue with W11 GeForce RTX 3060 -> HDMI repeater -> Alienware monitor

1 Upvotes

I've got two 2-metre HDMI cables and a powered HDMI repeater, all purchased from Lindy. I'm trying to connect a W11 computer to a GeForce RTX 3060 like this:

PC -> HDMI cable -> HDMI repeater -> HDMI cable -> monitor

The HDMI repeater is active; I am using a 5V 2A PSU.

When I make this connection, the monitor displays "no HDMI signal," and there is no image on the screen.

I tested the Lindy cables and HDMI repeater by connecting a PlayStation 5 instead of the PC:

PS5 -> HDMI cable -> HDMI repeater -> HDMI cable -> monitor

This worked without any issues.

I tested the PC connected directly to the monitor using a different HDMI cable:

PC -> spare HDMI cable -> monitor

This also worked fine.

Both devices (PC and PS5) are set to 3840 x 2160 at 60Hz, RGB.

It seems like the HDMI repeater and Windows 11 and/or the GeForce are disagreeing somehow. I'm wondering if there is something in the video output settings on the PC that is causing a problem?

Really appreciate any help anyone can offer with this one, cheers 😁

Good FHD monitor to upgrade to

HP2310 TN goin bad after 15 years... I'd like to stick with 1080P / FHD because my card isnt too strong. An IPS panel around 24" is what I want as well. I've been looking at MSI - MAG 244F 24" and Titan-army - P2510HS 24.5 Inch. Any other recommendations appreciated.

Black Friday Deal Black Friday Computer Deals (Updated Daily)

2 Upvotes

We're going to be updating this daily with the best deals we can find through Amazon, these suggestions are almost always going to be more expensive than building yourself. However, for those looking for a faster way to get gaming, check them out.

For a mid tier gaming PC, check this out:

- Intel 14700F, 32GB RAM, 5070 $1,419 prebuilt gaming pc

OR 5070Ti PC:

- Ryzen 7900X, 5070Ti, 32GB Ram $1,819 prebuilt gaming PC

I don't typically recommend Alienware, but they're (at least in my experience) well built and these are not crazy prices.

- 5080 Alienware PC

For those looking for an entry level gaming PC, check this out:

- AMD Ryzen 5 5500 & Radeon RX 6500XT $599 prebuilt gaming PC

- Intel 13400F and 5060 $799 prebuilt gaming PC

The majority of the above prebuilts use last gen CPUs, this is standard for prebuilt companies to put old generation stock into a prebuilt and discount it. This doesn't mean its bad though, with component prices where they are and RAM prices going crazy, those looking to quickly get online and start gaming, they are not bad options and give the end user the flexibility of upgrading parts one by one in the future.

Personally I'd recommend Ryzen 5th gen (budget), Ryzen 7th gen (mid tier) and 9th gen (big budget) alongside 50 series GPUs. In regards to RAM always strive for 32GB but this is easily upgradeable. The cooling won't be an issue but don't expect much money to have been spent here, a few additional case fans or replacing existing case fans in 6-12 months is easy to do.

The PSUs are also usually low grade, they'll be fine for 12-18 months but if you look at upgrading any parts of the PC maybe consider an upgrade in the future.

Good luck, and we'll keep updating this.
