Looking to upgrade my Hazro 30" 2560x1600 monitor.... on the cheap

Is this monitor an`OK`one? , or should i be looking at something else.It is around £230 atm.Not thinking of spending much more but i `might` go a bit higher
Thoughts please

. MORE than i was hoping to spend though

That AOC looks pretty damn good for the money, good deal! Stretch to that if you can imo.

Should have said I only have a 6700xt and 3700x with 16 GB of ram
Would that be much of an issue with a 4K monitor do you think?
Especially with a higher than 60 refresh rate?

Yeah, that's a 1440p card at best unless you play a lot of older games. I'd stick to 1440p personally, 4k is incredibly harsh on graphics cards still.

Seems to have decent reviews and cheap from what I've seen, and easily returnable (if it's from where I think its from). Worth a try.

Thank you for your opinion

Will have a think over the weekend

Had a think and think i will leave it until i get a better gfx card
And looking at current prices it will be a while,i don`t like the idea of spending £500+ on something better.Ahh the good ol days of getting a top end card for £450
