Hi everyone,
I'm in the market for a new monitor. Thanks for your help in advance.
1. What Is Your Country Of Origin?
USA
2. What do you plan to do with this monitor? (ex. Games, Movie Watching, Photo Editing, etc.)
Primarily work i.e. CAD, spreadsheets, programming etc. However there will be a healthy amount of gaming and media use as well.
3. What resolution and screen size do you want?
24"-27", 16 x 10 aspect ratio preferred, so either 1920x1200 or 2560x1600.
2560x1440 is ok too.
4. What refresh rate do you want? (ex. 60 hz , 70 hz.)
doesn't matter
5. How much are you looking to spend?
$300-$500
6. Brands Preferred (ex. Samsung, Acer, Asus, AOC, HP, Viewsonic, etc. )
No preference. The best value with reasonable quality is all I ask for.
7. Brands Not Preferred (state reason why)
No specific brand, but monitors with known reliability issues is not ok.
8. Are You Buying More Than One Monitor?
No
9. How Many Displays Can Your GPU Support Maximum? And what GPU and driver version are you using if applicable?
N/a
10. What Port Do You Want To Connect To (ex. DVI-D, HDMI, etc).
DVI-I, HDMI, and the occasional displayport. Not a deal breaker if it doesn't have all of these as long as it has DVI-I.
11. Is This Monitor A Primary Display Or A Secondary Display?
Primary
12. Is This A Secondary Display For A Laptop?
Sometimes
