I'd like a nice 27"+ screen and a chair that can take hours or use.

Budget of 500ish.

there was a qnix the other day for under 300 iirc.

Take a look at benQ gaming monitors they have some really nice ones I love mine
I got a 24 inch 60hz 1ms response time 1080p

Qnix Evo 2, a very popular overclockable Korean monitor, was on sale for $280 and came with $50 Newegg gift card. However, (and I don't know if this actually makes a difference) it was only for the AHVA panel version, not the PLS. The only thing I do know is that AHVA's are made by AUO while PLS are made by Samsung.


@OP - What do you use the computer for? If mostly gaming, what genres?
