Monitor

[MistaChang 2023]

Was wanting to buy a new monitor but wasn't sure what I should get, something around 17 18 inches with HDMI compatible, atm I use a TV and the color is getting to me..

Budget?

 

17 inches is really small btw

[MistaChang 2023]

I guess 22 inches and 300 is preferable to 500 max...

Look at hz man, you want something over 120hz preferably, 144 is ideal.

If you're some kind of graphics designer or for some reason you really like image quality over performance you want to go for an IPS monitor, if you are going for a smoother gameplay you want to buy a TN display @144hz.

 

The one Paul linked is really good.

Unless you want top tier color. Then look for an IPS panel.

It's the only one readily available right now, unfortunately, otherwise I'd recommend the monoprice 144hz monitor

17 inch monitor? WTF is this the 90s? Do you want your CRT screen to be one of them fancy flat ones too and not slightly curved?

Height adjustable, dude. I'm using one as my primary, and a VE247H as a secondary. If space is an issue, raise it up!

[MistaChang 2023]

Not being hieght adjustable just screen being so wide, I'm just taking out this drawer off my desk so I can fit the screen as I was short about an inch plus I'd have more room for comfort.. My Christmas present to myself, thanks for the help guys!

There is a dead pixel on the monitor I bought, should I return to the amazon seller or is there a way to fix it?

They won't return it. Probably no way to fix. Sometimes it is stuck and you can massage the screen around it and push in with a pencil eraser. There is also a website and our program to flash all the colors rapidly to try and unstick it. Usually those methods only work if it is stuck on one color or white.

You would have to look up the manufacturer warranty which almost all have very specific policies. Usually they allow one or two dead with in 1/3rd of center. Then a couple to 5 or 8 outside that area. The policy is clearly spelt out.

I'm not sure if any offer a zero dead policy anymore. Maybe for center of screen but not for whole screen.

[MistaChang 2023]

Is it possible for it to go away over time if it isn't a dead pixel, I think it is stuck as there is color on it.

Edit: I can return to seller and buy a new one, should I get from a store or same seller?
