Hello everyone,

I am going to build my first homebuilt gaming PC and need an awesome screen for this. I will primarily play MOBAs, MMORPGs and RPGs. I have been looking at this screen http://pcpartpicker.com/part/asus-monitor-vs239hp because it is ISP and has a good response time. Below is my config.

CPU: Intel Core i5-4670K 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor ($225.99 @ NCIX US)
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler ($29.98 @ OutletPC)
Motherboard: ASRock Z87 Extreme4 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard ($117.99 @ Newegg)
Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory ($59.99 @ Newegg)
Storage: Samsung 840 EVO 120GB 2.5" Solid State Disk ($89.99 @ Amazon)
Storage: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($58.99 @ NCIX US)
Video Card: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 770 2GB Video Card ($329.99 @ NCIX US)
Case: Corsair 200R ATX Mid Tower Case ($39.99 @ NCIX US)
Power Supply: Antec High Current Gamer 620W 80+ Bronze Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply ($54.99 @ NCIX US)
Optical Drive: Asus DRW-24B1ST/BLK/B/AS DVD/CD Writer ($16.99 @ Newegg)

I hope you can help me chose the best monitor for my situation! I know I listed budget as under $200, but please feel free to come with any suggestions.

Thanks a lot.

Hi noSnip,

We need to factor some details;

If your computer table and chair is close enough(arm-length) you can get a 23" because if you get a, say 27", you'll just end up moving further away to see everything better.

Hello and thanks for the answer. Actually I have already bought my screen and finished my gaming rig. I went for an Asus VS239HR 23' :)
