Hi there,
Looking for a "best value" point for a monitor, going to be for mainly for audio work and some video/photo editing (non professional). Looking for a decent monitor under $200ish (Canadian).
-If there's a "sweet spot" pricerange that's better value for the money, please let me know.
(Please note I won't necessarily be buying these from Newegg, PCPartPicker has better prices elsewhere but these are all similar).
I should mention: Unsure between VA and IPS monitor. Reasonable response time is preferred since I'll be doing a bit of gaming but I don't need anything specific like 1ms. Blacks are important/preferred but so is colour accuracy so I'm hoping I can find a compromise.
Currently looking at:
-LG22MP55HQ http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E1682...
$155 - Cheap, IPS monitor
-BenQ GW2265HM http://www.cnet.com/products/benq-gw2265hm-led-monitor-21-5/
$166 - VA with excellent contrast
-Dell S2240M http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&sku=320-9803&redirect=1
$177 IPS - 83% NTSC colour gamut compared to BenQ's 72%, but I'm not sure if they're measuring CIE1931 with BenQ in which case the BenQ would be the same as the Dell.
-Acer G227HQL http://www.amazon.com/Acer-G227HQL-Abi-21-5-Inch-Widescreen/dp/B00JB6HCHI
$178 IPS
-AOC i2267Fw http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824160167
$179 IPS
-Asus VS229H-P http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2405094,00.asp
$200
Prices are all after tax I believe.
Open to any options, picking from this list is helpful: https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/parts/monitor/#W=2130,3400&sort=a8&page=1
Any recommendations to others around this line, or opinions? I'd compromise a 24" to a 22" if it means a higher quality display. Colour accuracy is important (as much as I can get for the money here) more so than latency, but 5ms at least is nice.
