Looking for a monitor that can compliment the machine well, so will need HDMI 2.1, a minimum of 144hz and 27\" screen. Probably going to game in 1440p so monitor will have to meet each of these requirements. Would really appreciate any advice from those of you in the know
Hope you all have a very Merry Christmas.

Definitely looking at least £250+ and that might be an under estimate.
I went for the dell s2721dgfa because I managed to get it cheaper, most budget options are still monitors that would have featured in my search this time last year unsurprisingly.

If you're not then It will not affect current or future compatibility in any way."},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/51825233","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"StoneyWales"},"datePublished":"2023-12-24T17:16:53.000Z","text":"I'm not too bothered about being branded to be honest, but if the cost is minimal in increase happy to pay a little more for a reputable brand.
In relation to budget, I guess a minimum of a few hundred will be required, hence the best pound to performance aspect.
Thankyou for your response though "},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/51825764","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Willy_Wonka"},"datePublished":"2023-12-24T18:36:03.000Z","text":"If it is going in a bedroom & and she will be using HDMI I would be considering a good TV.
Just a suggestion."},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/51829909","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Mark_Hickman"},"datePublished":"2023-12-25T12:59:57.000Z","text":"Why do you want hdmi 2.1? Monitors use display ports mostly for gaming that can go much higher than 144hz, you dont really need hdmi 2.1 thats more a tv thing.
Most newer monitors do come with hdmi 2.1 but just use display port, the reason modern graphics cards now have hdmi 2.1 is so lile me you can use a large tv as a monitor with 120/144hz"}],"commentCount":10,"interactionStatistic":1,"articleSection":"Ask"}
