jerrodh Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 Looking for a 27-30" monitor for gaming. Mostly Xbox one so from what I have read Is it doesn't need to be anything ridiculous. Might do some light PC gaming. If you want any specs on the PC 16.00 GB DDR3 AMD 1090T Processessor 3.20 Windows 7 64bit AMD 7800 Series 2gig Basically looking for the best within reason $300-$500 Looking for recommendations from people who do/have owned one.

Spidey2721 Posted March 4, 2016 Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 you can pretty much get a triple monitor setup for that. i running two of these atm. adding a third soon. VN247H-P not amazing monitor by any means but works for gaming. just my two cents. 160 bucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furloaf Posted March 4, 2016 Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 Anything 1080p and 60hz will be fine. Won't be pushing anything more than that, XBOX One doesn't even come close. Get an IPS panel for best picture and color quality. http://www.logicalincrements.com/monitors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffro Posted March 4, 2016 Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 Isn't xbox 30 hz? Lolbox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShowHBK Posted March 4, 2016 Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 Isn't xbox 30 hz? Lolbox yea, Very few games on Xbox One push over 30 FPS, so technically a 60hz monitor is overkill for an Xbox One. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShowHBK Posted March 4, 2016 Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 If you are looking on the high end, I would go with the Benq XL2720Z @ $500 This monitor is complete overkill if you are ONLY playing console games because for $500 you are buying a REALLY kick ass monitor. This thing has 1ms response time, support for up to 144hz and is used by the professional gamers for the best picture and proformance. This monitor is the one you almost always see at eSports events. http://www.amazon.com/BenQ-XL2720Z-Gaming-Monitor-Resolution/dp/B00GWFNMJS/ref=sr_1_5?s=pc&rps=1&ie=UTF8&qid=1457102855&sr=1-5&keywords=benq+gaming+monitor&refinements=p_85%3A2470955011 ************************************************** If you are looking on the low end, I would go with the Samsung S27E591C @ $320 Samsung makes good monitors and I have seen this one in person. It is bright and has a good picture. You can plug in a PC via the Display port adapter or use the pass through on your xbox. http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-27-Inch-LED-Lit-Monitor-S27E591C/dp/B00TR056SU/ref=sr_1_24?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1457103037&sr=1-24&keywords=gaming+monitor&refinements=p_n_size_browse-bin%3A3547807011 ************************************************** Honorable Mentions? The LG 29UM67 @ $379 I use this monitor daily. it is an Ultrawide monitor (2560x1080) and supports 1920x1080 gaming. Your Xbox will look stretched, but the image is amazing on this monitor and the response time is respectable as well. http://www.amazon.com/LG-Electronics-29UM67-29-Inch-LED-lit/dp/B00VBNQJKU/ref=sr_1_5?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1457102946&sr=1-5&keywords=lg+gaming+monitor ************************************************** Here is a LG 32MP58HQ @ $299 as well, great monitor for the price. http://www.amazon.com/LG-Electronics-32MP58HQ-P-LED-lit-Monitor/dp/B01BV1X9DG/ref=sr_1_2?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1457103722&sr=1-2&keywords=32+inch+monitor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbospec29 Posted March 4, 2016 Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 I got the Benq monitor last year and have been really satisfied with it. http://www.amazon.com/BenQ-GW2760HS-27-inch-LED-lit-Monitor/dp/B00ITORMDC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
