Question

1080p 144Hz low input lag and good image quality monitor?

by May 1, 2018 3:43PM PDT

I'm shopping for a new monitor since the old one is totally rubbish. I'm wondering if anyone knows a good monitor that is 144Hz/75Hz, is 1080p, has good image quality and doesn't have noticeable input lag or ghosting

My budget is around 300-350$ and I don't really care how the monitor looks I just care about the tech that is in it. I will mostly be playing singleplayer games and watch movies so I want colors to not be that bad :/

If anyone can help me out I would really appreciate it! Grin

The best of monitors seem to run about 400 and up. https://www.cnet.com/topics/monitors/best-monitors/ for example.

If I am on a budget I'd check out Amazon best sellers and start at #1 and work my way down the list till I find a) 144Hz and b) price that fits.

As to your 75 and 144Hz need, I worry a bit since that's usually one display or another not both.

Then AOC blows up what I thought I knew with their model g90.

Amazon has the 24 inch for about 200.
