    I got a 1080p 23 inch monitor for 75 bucks. BLOODY STEAL.

    It even has displayport, which my graphics card has! YAY, INFINITE UPSCALING!

    I'm excited about it and the monitor is the size of my desk almost XDD

    That's a pretty crazy price for a 23 inch full hd monitor. I've had a 25 inch full hd monitor for some time now. I think it cost maybe double that amount.

    The next screen I'm going to buy will be a 30 or 34 inch monitor.

    My that time my streaming box will be done, as I said.

    And now that I think about it I might get a 295X2 and save the space on my board. It's basically a titan and a half

    yeah, monitors have really dropped in price
    I have 6 desktops and each one has a 20in or larger
    I bought them over time and never spent more than $150.00
    I have two 23" monitors
    They are down to $120.00 on newegg.com
    Acer's are GREAT
    All of my monitors are Acer and the oldest one is about 8 years old and still works GREAT!

    I haven't head any problems since I got it. The colour is good & neutral, there isn't any dead pixel or edge shadowing. I'm very happy with it. Acer makes great monitors.
