Got this for $100 on sale
I got this for $100 (it was on sale). For $100 (again since it was on sale) i would recommend you buying this while it's still on sale hurry up before the sale ends. But when the sale does end for $200 it's kind of too much because of how smart a monitor is The graphics are not bad but not extremely good I guess for $200 but since I got this for $100 she's actually good for that price but it just a small monitor you can achieve 120 FPS on his monitor and there's actually some cool features like the different modes it has for gaming and other stuff. If anyone read this this far and ima do you a favor and give you a monitor that's 24 inches, and tested to be the best hundred dollar monitors than most higher priced monitors and its proven. its only $120. You can get it on amazon or anywhere else, but its called ktc h24t09p. Your welcome.
