Hey there everyone!

So, i have a gaming PC and a PS4... i was considering using a single configuration where i could have the PC using 2 Monitors and the PS4 also connected to one of these 2 monitors.

I would like some opinions and suggestions on the matter, if anybody could suggest a range of models i could look into iw ould highly appreciate that.

I would expect that most GTX 780 cards would have a two DVI connectors (Likely one DVI-I and one DVI-D). It doesn't really matter though. Your current monitor is connected using DVI. You can connect an available DVI or HDMI connector on the card to the new monitor using a DVI or HDMI connector on the monitor. You just need to use a HDMI input on the new monitor to connect to the PS4 if you want sound. If sound is connected seperately, you can use a HDMI to DVI adapter here too if necessary.

You can also easily use display port (DP) from the PC to the new monitor if the monitor supports it.

Choose a 1920x1080 monitor.
Asus VE248H has one DVI and one HDMI.
Dell U2314H has one DP and one DVI-D (connect PS4 to DVI-D with adapter, monitor...

I think the Asus VS models have two HDMI inputs, but I tried the VS278H and the picture quality was pretty bad.
DVI-D to HDMI cables and adapters are easy to come by, so a monitor with one HDMI input and one DVI-D input will be just as good for what you want (no sound via DVI-D to this monitor from the PC of course).

my current PC uses DVi connection to my current monitor, and i have the GTX 780 which comes with a DVI-HDMI converter plug, so if i could get a second monitor to get in there and ALSO accept my ps4, i would be set...

Both Dell monitors can be fitted with a sound bar if you want but don't have speakers built in. These are IPS monitors with superior image quality to most TN panels.
