Recently we covered the Edifier MR3 studio monitor bookshelf speaker deal, which should give you a great flat sound experience (except for the deeper bass notes) for just $100. Alternatively, you can also opt for Sennheiser"s HD 599 SE, also on sale at the same price.
If you are instead looking for some great screen options, then Acer has its Predator 27-inch 1440p OLED X27U for just $430. Just users could also be looking to opt for higher resolutions within a 27-inch footprint. For them, MSI"s MAG 275UPD E14 is a wonderful option as it is currently just $200 (purchase link under the specs table). Since it features a 4K screen in a 27-inch space, the pixel density and, hence, the detail per pixel is top-notch.
Like most gaming monitors out there, it supports adaptive sync, which helps reduce tearing by synchronising the screen"s refresh rate with the graphics card"s output frame rate. Speaking of refresh rates, the monitor is rated at 144 Hz at 4K and 1440p and up to 288 Hz at 1080p. Thus, if you want a smoother more fluid output, you can opt for the latter.
