HI! My aunt was going to get me a new PC but she is now hospitalized, even though she let me get one to begin with. I got the Config ID 3467506. Can someone tell me what monitor I should get. Thanks.

You will want a 24" IPS monitor in Hi-def (1080p) for good results with your video card. Maybe try for one that has a 75Hz refresh rate for when you can save up for a better card if you ever want to. An IPS has wide viewing angles and better colors than the other kinds. You can get a good one under $200, and even under $150 if you shop well. There are dozens of models, and they are mostly pretty decent. be sure to look up the one(s) you are interested in online because they will have reviews.

Here is a bunch to give you an idea:

Sorry to hear about your aunt, hope she makes it out well.

At that resolution there are many monitors to chose from. Talk to your friends to find out what they use, go to Best Buy and look at a few. Check the reviews in Amazon. It is a lot of fun to do the looking.
Enjoy and good luck.
