I've been bashing my head trying to figure out what monitor I should buy to go along with a new computer I'm about to build. I have 4 monitors in mind, but torn on which one I should get. They are:

GIGABYTE G27FC

VIOTEK GNV29CB

Sceptre C305B-200UN (It's price is actually $275)

Sceptre E275B-FPT168

$300 was the most I was planning to spend on a monitor, but these are the four choices that caught my eye. Was hoping to get an opinion on which one of these would most likely be the best bang-for-your-buck monitor (or if you know of a better monitor under $300). If you need to know what GPU that I will be using, it will be a RTX 2070 Super.

I'd go with Gigabyte but I'd rather suggest you to look for more quality known brands such as Asus, BenQ, Acer, AOC

There're other quality brands that make gaming monitors such as Dell, Lenovo, Samsung and LG.

I'd say buying Gigabyte is as good as buying MSI monitor which is not the best but it's neither bad.

Yeah, I actually decided to go with a MSI monitor, the MSI Optix G32CQ4. Seems to hit the sweet spot when it comes to features and price. I was really sitting on the fence between it, and this AOC CQ27G2. But I went on ahead and pulled the trigger on that MSI one....
