Help picking a new monitor

[vlad9727]

Hello. I've been using the same 4:3 LCD monitor for 10 years now, and i've been thinking of buying a new one.
At the moment im looking for a 16:9 ofc, recommended for games, such as CSGO, or shooters in general. Speaking of that lovely 1ms GTG and the 60Hz as my build can manage over150-200fps only in CSGO.
I live in Eastern Europe. I cant really buy outside my country and i don't even want to do that as i barely trust websites. I've been buying from a few websites here and there and the one that didnt disappoint me, yet, is www.pcgarage.ro
I'll leave a link with the page with monitors and my preffered specs for the monitor.
Please tell me which one would be better for my needs.

Do you have a budget in mind, or is this a ruse to drive traffic to the site?

Im really not willing to buy something, such a monitor from a foreign website, considering that i barely have money for the monitor. The delivery from other country would be enough to buy a better monitor from this website.
As i said, this is the only website from my country i trust so far. The budget has been already selected in that list of monitor from my link. Only those i can afford so far.

What is you GPU? Budget? You need to get a 144Hz monitor if you can push so many FPS.

I got this build

It can push over 144fps (for a 144Hz monitor) only in CSGO
For Battlefield 4, not really. So is for the other games.
Either way, i cannot afford a 144Hz monitor. The 144Hz monitors are a new thing in my country... well not really new, but still very expensive. The cheapest would be about 300euros or so and i cannot afford that. I got only about 125 euros. I gotta pay some fees for college too. It would be my only chance to buy a new monitor. If i were to not buy a monitor in the new few weeks, i wouldnt be able to buy a new monitor this year at all.
As far as it goes. Im in need of a TN LED monitor with 60Hz, lowest response time as possible and 16:9... Blue light reducer is also needed and so is flicker free.
At the moment this might interest me.

There is a nice sale on emag. It's reputable retailer aswell, I'm also from romania so i'd know.
If you can't have 144Hz, have 23" and IPS.
This screen is gorgeous: http://www.emag.ro/monitor-led-ips-lg-23-full-hd-dvi-d-boxe-flicker-safe-negru-23mb35pm-b-aeu-pl-993874-23mb35pm-b/pd/DS0BFMBBM/?ref=prod_CMP-67_947_9273

It looks quite attractive, but the one thing that bothers me is the fact that its not meant for gaming. It has a slow response time which isn't something im looking for, although it has better colours. Anything else you could recommend me please? Maybe a TN monitor?

I would recommend against a TN panel. I went from a 1ms TN to a 5ms IPS and i'm never going back. you will not notice the difference. Mind you, pixel response time and input lag are completly unrelated.
Plus, pro-tip: most "gaming" stuff is just pure marketing. And everyhting under and including 8ms is perfect for gaming.

I've been asking some TN users. Its not really a marketing thing. Im playing mostly only competitive games, not singleplayer games. While im giving you some points when it comes to IPS, for what im in need of right now, TN satisfies my needs.

Ok, but if you want to go for a fast panel, you should go for one that actually delivers on it's claims, and that will cost you a little more: http://www.emag.ro/monitor-led-asus-24-wide-full-hd-1-ms-dvi-d-d-sub-hdmi-boxe-negru-ve248hr/pd/D1KFH3BBM/?ref=prod_CMP-67_947_9273
Is teh diffeerence worth it? If you really need that speed, yes.

already over my budget... what about this one? http://www.emag.ro/monitor-led-asus-23-6-full-hd-wide-hdmi-negru-vn247h/pd/D0KDMYBBM/
A few people recommend it.
