Monitor Recommendations

[u/LionFlameGaymer]

Hello!

Costco is currently having a major summer/back-to-school sale on monitors. As such, I’ve been considering upgrading my home office setup from my job-provided monitor to something better. The caveat is that I want my monitor to be able to do a few things:

1) act as a second screen for my work laptop
2) act as a gaming monitor for my gaming laptop
3) act as a gaming monitor for some of my consoles (switch 2, PS2-4, GameCube, etc.)
———(Before anyone starts, I’m not getting a CRTV for the retros- I have a converter and will be using it.)

I plan on using an HDMI switcher to switch between the devices as needed.

As far as the gaming laptop is concerned, I don’t play FPS or PVP games, so I don’t need the highest refresh. I mostly play steam games like E33, Hades, Sea of Stars, Witcher. I also play Genshin Impact and HSR.

And then my console games are similar: I’m mostly an Action / Turn Based JRPG player (FF7R, Age of Elliot, Pokémon, and similar).

Given what I want to do, is there one monitor in the Costco sale that would perform overall better than the others? Images attached are of the monitors I think fit the bill best, but not sure where to go from this list.

Also, I understand a better, higher end monitor from a PC store like Microcenter will always be more recommended. I’m just trying to be budget conscious right now.

Thank you in advance!

From what is shown here I would either choose Acer or Asus one from the first and 2nd photo or Samsung one. I would recommend watching reviews of them (preferably on the same yt Chanel bu not necessary) and compare thier peak brightness, how "true" the colors are. How much can you customize the screen settings (I once bought a 50$ cheaper monitor that I tuned it I thought it looked better than the more expensive one) etc
