Monitor options

A small range of monitors we've chosen to pair with our PCs. Each one is a considered pick at its tier — no filler, no overlap, no overspec for the sake of it. Just well-reviewed, solid options

If none of these fit your needs (ultrawide, larger format, specific brand) we can usually source what you're after — just ask via live chat.
