I'm looking to splurge on a 1080 Ti and wanted to get a higher res monitor than 1920x1080p to match it. I play a ton of games but less shooters nowadays, and honestly am looking more for great visuals at a great frame rate more than razors-edge response time. Any recommendations?

BIG HEADLINE posted:This is where we ask your price range, but seeing as you're buying a 1080Ti, everyone's just going to say "buy an Alienware 34" Widescreen." Fair enough! My budget actually would be more in the $300-$500 price range. I'm getting the 1080 Ti as part of an upgrade for better performance with my HTC Vive. I've been using this monitor for gaming for awhile and have been happy with it, but now that I'm going to have a lot more graphics horsepower I'd like to take advantage of it for non-VR as well.

Costco has the Samsung U28E510D for $270. It says it has 1ms response time although it's 60hz. How would that work for gaming or has 60hz become no longer enough?

Elentor posted:I think everyone benefits from >60hz but there are very few situations where it's "not enough". There are bigger hindrances in a non-gaming IPS monitor (like severe motion blur and sometimes crazy high response time) than the Hz but gaming IPS monitors can be super expensive. With that said if you'll buy a TN for gaming yeah, you'll probably enjoy yourself a lot more if you at least buy a high refresh rate one. Cool, thanks for the advice. I'll wait till Cyber Monday to see if a better refresh rate monitor goes on sale. The FreeSync on the Samsung also wouldn't help me as much with an NVIDIA GPU.

Trying to help a friend out to find a new monitor, they mostly use their computer for writing/working and occasionally drawing as their primary display has stylus input. They are looking to replace a very-old second monitor they use mostly for displaying reference items/pictures and watching youtube videos while they work. We did some shopping around in stores, and they didn't like most of the display monitors, but a store had one of these Dell All-In-One computers set up that they loved the display on. Is there a way to find a similar Dell or other brand monitor with the same type of display? https://www.newegg.com/p/1VK-0001-5RZM2 Other than that, looking for a good second monitor with good color for watching videos or using art reference pictures. Right now they don't really do any gaming on this computer; they're using on-board video for now although a friend is returning them a GTX 970 in a few weeks they may put in the computer. Budget is in the range of $300! Thanks!
