I've been looking for a high quality VA panel for general use and movies, as I already have a monitor for gaming (144hz, G-Sync, TN, etc.). According to PCMonitors, this is the best monitor for "All-around use, movies and some gaming on the PC plus console gaming". Unfortunately, I can't find it available anywhere in Australia.
The next option is the 24" AOC C24G1, which is 1080p 144hz VA, however its kind of pricey at $260 on ebay right now.
There are plenty of cheaper VA monitors available, I'm just not sure which of them are actually high quality.
Any recommendations?
