@reni4ever Any standard monitor, basically a "normal" monitor built in the last decade or so, should be compatible with any new-ish computer. The question is not about matching but about what size and image quality you're looking for.
If you'd like help picking out the computer itself or the monitor, just list your budget and country as well as anything else that matters to you. For the monitor, let me know the size you want and whether you have any thoughts on other features.
My budget for everything is around 850. I really like dell I would greatly appreciate it if you helped me find a monitor and a pc, I would like a nice sized monitor and I don’t want the pc to be over 1,000 dollars. If I buy a monitor then I don’t need to buy a laptop?
@reni4ever If you buy a laptop, you don't need a monitor (but could use one if you wanted). If you buy a monitor, you could choose laptop or desktop, but I'd recommend a desktop for a few reasons. One is that you'd be getting better components: desktop parts are a little stronger than their laptop equivalents for the same price. And desktops generally have better cooling too, so the components can run at higher clock speeds for longer without overheating. That can help a lot in long play sessions.
Is this budget in U.S. dollars? If so, then I think I can find something suitable. But I don't want to start looking if it turns out you're shopping in an entirely different country, since both the relative prices and the available stock will differ greatly.
