If you have good knowledge of monitors i would appreciate advice on: - is the acer monitor i linked a good pick? - are Acer monitors good in general? - can i get a better monitor for rougly my budget?- what companies make great monitors and why?- what companies are known for making bad monitors and why? Very important that you elaborate your advices. Thanks for reading.
October 8, 201213 yr Acer is a great brand, but BenQ is also amazing for monitors. I would take a look at their brand, as it may be cheaper for better.
October 13, 201213 yr All monitors under $300 are the same. It doesn't matter what you get. As long as it is 1920x1080 and about 21-23" @ 60Hz, it is good. Generally, at the $200 or under price range, ASUS and Viewsonic are good. Really? Cause as I recall it was you who was the one cussing me at base. Also, re-read what you just said: one 15 second delay (which is an exaggeration to begin with) ruins floor times? You are beyond ridiculous.

First you say they are all the same, and then you go an contradict yourself by specifying what resolution and refresh rate he should be looking at. You made a good choice, Mist_Assassin, go with that monitor.
November 3, 201213 yr My 15" Acer monitor has been a royal pain in the rear; several dead pixels, as well as a strange coloration change in one corner. Not saying they're all like that, but that's my experience. 8,325th to 99 Firemaking 3/9/08 | 44,811th to 99 Cooking 7/16/084,968th to 99 Farming 10/9/09 | Runescaper August 2005-March 2010Tip.it Mod Feb. 2008-Sep. 2008 | Tip.it Crew Sep. 2008-Nov. 2009
November 5, 201213 yr I've had my 22" for 3 years now, it's an Acer and it's been even better than my 21.5" HP screen (on a dual screen setup with screens that have a different age). Unless it's a no-name brand, just look at what general quality and resolution you have.

Not different types of products.
