Which ones are you looking at? I like Asus monitors myself. I have my PS4 hooked up to a ASUS MX279H (1080p monitor) but am wanting to get a 4k monitor for my office.

That is the first one that caught my eye. It is a little above the price range I was looking at. There are a couple in the 500-600 range I am comparing as well.

EDIT

This is a barebones BenQ that looks decent. BenQ has never let me down

for some reason my BenQ link didnt show up

A couple years ago I got my BenQ gaming monitor (xl2720z model) and it just changed the way I enjoy gaming. Games look amazing on my monitor and the response time / input lag is amazing. I had my old Sammy 1080p TV hooked up still at the time and I would switch back and forth between the two and I just really preferred the experience on a monitor and haven't gone back since.

I game on a computer desk, in a small room. That also affects it. If I was in a large living room maybe I would still have a TV I would use to game on while I relax on a couch.

So I went to Best Buy and got a 32 inch Curved Samsung monitor which is a beautiful monitor and well crafted but the brightness is so low that it just hurts the contrast and is killing me.

I got it for 350 2 days ago and I was banned for 90 days from making returns at best buy and I am only like a month and a half in. So I think they will not allow me to return or exchange.

I should not have bought it via Best Buy.

I also do not like that it has no speakers and just 1 hdmi

I want to return it and get my money and buy the Ben Q monitor that has speakers and is bright with 2 HDMI inputs for my computer section


I would hate to pack it up and return it just to be turned away...UHHH

How did you manage that one? Too many returns? How many is too many?

You disappointed me man. You're on point with your TV game/specs, but didn't look online to see the number of inputs on the monitor. Impulse buy?
