Speaking of CES, this tidbit from BBC is hilarious:
Uhhhhh

The other big South Korean firm in attendance - LG - has released a deluge of early details.
Among them is news of a new line of smartphones called the K series.
The firm says they have been designed to look "far more expensive and exclusive than they really are" - which, you would have thought, as a marketing campaign might undermine their appeal.
Uhhhhh

Is there a wireless router with Mic and Google Now?

I never played it but those screenshots look awesome

Dude Dishonored? Omg, one of my favorite games in a while. It has replay value also.

I don't like Linus all that much, but this was short and sweet.

What's the best gaming monitor that is under $150? I am trying to buy two at the same time to replace my current monitor/tv setup I have running.

Save up and spend a little more on your monitors, IMO. Or just go with one at a higher res. You sort of get what you pay for with monitors.

what would be an ideal price per monitor?
Posted on 1/6/16 at 9:23 am to USAF Hart
Ignore the above. Higher res would do you no good with your setup. What size are you thinking?

24". Looking at 1-2 ms delay as the main selling point. Oh, and HDMI for input.

But also, consider a better-looking IPS with ever-so-slightly-higher response time: LINK
With 60Hz monitors, a difference between 2ms and 5ms response won't be noticeable (this isn't input lag, it's pixel gray-to-gray times, which are more important the higher the refresh rate you go). But I'm assuming you're going to use this for console gaming, so it does not matter.

Yea, the current consoles I don't think will ever support over 60 hz, so maybe I could get the same size monitors, but use one for console and one for PC (I do play PC games occasionally), to take advantage of the higher refresh rate.
Posted on 1/6/16 at 9:52 am to USAF Hart
Though if you want higher than 60Hz, you'll need to spend a good bit more than $150. LINK
You'd also have to play your PC games at reduced settings to get a frame rate that takes advantage of the higher refresh. And games like Day Z standalone (I think you mentioned playing that one, forgot what else) I doubt will even give you that high of a frame rate regardless of your settings.

Gotcha. I know a lot of the tournaments they hold, they are using BenQ monitors so I am sort of leaning towards that one. Does Amazon Price match? On Newegg, the BenQ monitor is about $20 cheaper.

I believe Amazon price matches. I've never price matched anything in my life, so not sure.

I guess I should've made sure your setup could support it. Apologies.
