Well, at my local Fry's they have 5 different 22" 1920x1080 monitors for $99. I seem to have a wealth of monitors, as I keep my eye on clearance events, and have managed to pick up four 4K monitors over the last year, each for a price between $199 and $230. They are Samsung and LG branded and work fine. Note - I code, lots of graphics, but I don't game. So issues such as refresh rate I ignore.
