@Keebler8448 That's true, but you should also consider reading this TechReviewer article Is the HP 31-5" M32fw Good for Gaming?. It provides a more in-depth analysis of the HP 31-5" M32fw monitor for gaming purposes.

From what I've read, the refresh rate is decent at 75 Hz, but the response time could be better at 7 ms.

I have this monitor and I can vouch that it's pretty good for casual gaming. The colors are vibrant and the display quality is nice.

Thanks for sharing that link! So after reading the article, do you think it would be good for competitive gaming?

I'd say it's decent for casual gaming but might struggle with competitive gaming. The response time could be a bottleneck there.

The resolution is also worth mentioning. It's 1920x1080 which is okay, but if you want the best experience, going for higher resolutions like QHD or 4K would be better.

Yeah, I guess I'll have to consider that. Thanks for all the input!
