150$ CAD budget for a monitor, your toughts?

Post by RXR_Banjo »

Sup guys, i built a gaming desktop with the help of Puma and some other guys, (thank you beaucoup :D )

Last thing to choose is the monitor, my budget is around 150$ CAD and i'd like to have your opinions.

here is the monitor that i chose: https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/part/acer-m ... umwg6aab01

and here is the complete build if you wanna see it: http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/fqXjkL

this one is 21,5'', i'd like to get a 23'' but it doesnt fit in my budget to keep the same monitor quality. I prefer to have a good 21'' than a poor 23''

This monitor will be used for MXS + CSGO + work !

This seems to be a nicer monitor for less money. It is IPS, is brighter, and has a higher contrast ratio.

I would want the refresh rate before the response time.
