Monitor advise needed

[Roooker]

Hi guys i an thinking about getting a new/second monitor.

It must be 1080p and at least 22" big. Due to my competetive gaming career i would like to have 120 Hz refresh rate.
The only monitors i found with this spec are at least 250-300 €. Are there any nice monitors out there that are a bit cheaper ?

Unless you can track down an old Asus VG236e or Samsung sa700/750d I doubt you will find many 120Hz monitors out there for cheaper than the 300 euro mark. Although i'm not sure how the Benq XL2411T is that expensive in the EU, might be an idea to get one imported from the UK as you shouldnt have to spend much, if any, extra on import taxes etc.

It's up to you dude, get it or leave it. Maybe it's not that hot with your "competitive gaming career" after all, in that case don't ask people for suggestions... I play CS:GO on a semi-pro level, this monitor is the best one you can get for FPS games.

The reason he said that is because he provided a budget and you ignored it.

I did not ignore it, he was ASKING whether there is something cheaper, well, obviously not, these monitors are aimed at us gamers who are willing to pay premium and that's it. I remember when the market was crazy, like 2 years ago and I got myself 2 LG 120Hz monitors for £130, and managed to resell one later on for £200.
Right now, these are the choices, full stop.
I'm not going to create thread about buying a 3570k for less than £100, because it is not possible. Capito?

Does it really need to be 120Hz ?

Could 75Hz do the job ?

He got it.

But i dont want this thread to go crazy. I have taken a closer look at some 75Hz monitors yes, but i am not convinsed considering it is only 15 hz more than a standart one. I dont think you will be able to see a big difference at all.
