Ok I need a new monitor and am looking for a decent 23-24" LED monitor with deep blacks and 1080p resolution. Under $200

I am not interested in 1440p, 4K or Gsync. Those features are outside my budget and I don't do enough PC gaming for them to be a big deal. I've seen a few from Samsung and ASUS that seem good, but I need some suggestions from GAF.

 

[JohnnyFootball]

Anyone? Or have I scared everyone away with my mediocre suggestions?

I've been using a 25-inch LG Ultrawide since November and I love it. You can get it for $180 right now. HDMI inputs only though.Great for work since it can act as two side-by-side monitors.

Does anyone have any experience with this one?

I'm looking for a new Monitor and this one seems to keep cropping up to the top of the list.

I have the ASUS V239H-P. It's a decent IPS monitor for the price ($135 on Amazon right now).

Anything by Samsung, ACER, LG or Asus in that price range is good.

IPS is a beautiful panel type with better colours which fills your needs for deep blacks and better viewing angles.

I recommend this one.

Is it necessary to be that small or would you be willing to go a little bit larger?

Either way I'd recommend one of the ultra wide LG IPS monitors in that price range.

Here's something to consider if you're willing to spend just a little more.

I just ordered a BenQ 24 inch.

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00IKDFL4O/?tag=neogaf0e-20

The reviews seem good and the price was too good to pass up.

Once I get a raise, I'll upgrade to a Gsync monitor and relegate this one to secondary.

What's your impression of the Acer Predator XB271HU?

 

[Firebrand]

Really happy with my S27D590P, which is available in a 24 format as well in the S24E390. It does have some "IPS glow" in the corner, but I'm not sure that's avoidable on lower-end IPS panels (there was one youtube video which seemed to demonstrate a comparable LG display had less of it, but I've also seen opposite cases). The lagom.nl gamma tests were nearly spot on right out of the box, though the picture does have a bit of a saturated look to it.

One drawback is that the stand (which does not have height adjustment) doesn't allow the display to backwards very much at all.

That it's about $500 too expensive for me. LOL.

Yeah, I know what you mean. But the last time I bought a monitor was 10 years ago. I'm tempted to go for one that will last another 10

edit: I should've read the OP before posting lol.

I've been keeping my eye on the ViewSonic XG2701 27-inch 144Hz with FreeSync.

It has really solid reviews and is currently a lightning deal for $315. Wish I had the money for it, but maybe someone else can take advantage of a good deal.

The 24" version is $228.

 

[NoblesseOblige]

Best monitor for under $200 that I've used myself is a BenQ. I think the 24 inch is like $175, though may be found on woot.com frequently for cheaper.

Edit: oh, OP already ordered a BenQ. Disregard.

 

[DUFFMCWALIN]

I've enjoyed this so far: ACER. Pretty cheap too.

 

[SmartWaffles]

If you are just looking for a solid 60Hz monitor the DELL U2414H is just perfect.

 

[Lyte Edge]

Check here for a good list.

I have the ASUS MX279H. It's over $200, however they offer a 25" model for $199 and a 23" model is currently about the same price, oddly enough.

 

[JohnnyFootball]

My BenQ should arrive tomorrow. Excited about it!

Let me know how it is. I've been looking at this one and really interested in what people think of it.

It's here and it will take some getting used to, but I like it so far.

Going from a 40 inch Samsung LED to a 24 inch LED monitor is a bit of a change, but so far so good.

Very much worth what I paid ($140)

Cool! If you can post some more updates after using for some time, that would be great.
