Key facts at a glance

what is a gaming monitor and why refresh rate matters

A gaming monitor is a screen tuned for fast motion and clear frames. It shows images from your PC or console. For gamers this means less blur when you move the camera or character. Monitors in this list are Full HD, so they show 1920×1080 pixels. They use IPS or VA panels, which change colour and viewing angle. The listed sizes range from 21.5 to 27 inches, which affects how big the picture looks on your desk.

Refresh rate is how many frames per second the screen can show. A 60Hz monitor can show 60 frames each second. A 75Hz monitor can show 75 frames, and a 100Hz monitor can show 100 frames. A 144Hz monitor can show 144 frames. Higher refresh rate gives smoother motion when your PC or console can output more frames. For example, if your game runs at 100 frames per second, a 100Hz or 144Hz monitor will make movement look clearer than a 60Hz screen. If your PC gives fewer frames than the screen can show, the extra refresh rate is unused. Some monitors here also include features like FreeSync, which helps match the PC frame output to the screen.

• 60Hz: BENQ GW2283, basic smoothness for ordinary games and office work.
• 75Hz: LG 22MK600M, small boost for slightly smoother motion.
• 100Hz: ViewSonic VA2408-HDJ, BENQ GW2490, Dell SE2225HM, noticeably smoother for 1080p gaming and multiple-monitor setups for trading.
• 144Hz: MSI PRO MP273 E14A, highest motion clarity here for competitive 1080p gaming and fast-paced titles.

what panel type should you pick

IPS panel means In-Plane Switching, a screen type that gives wide viewing angles and better colours. Wide viewing angles mean the picture looks the same when you sit off-centre, like when two people share a desk. Better colours mean shades look truer for tasks like colour grading, photo work, or watching movies. The BenQ GW2490 here lists 99% sRGB (sRGB is a common colour space), so it is the best pick for colour work among these models.

All listed monitors use IPS panels except the Dell SE2225HM, which uses a VA panel. VA (Vertical Alignment) usually gives deeper blacks but narrower viewing angles than IPS. If you sit directly in front and want stronger contrast, the Dell VA panel can work for single-person setups. For shared desks, multi-monitor setups for trading, or colour-sensitive work, the IPS models are safer choices because they keep colours and brightness more consistent when you move your head.

• IPS models in this list: ViewSonic VA2408-HDJ, MSI PRO MP273 E14A, BENQ GW2490, BENQ GW2283, LG 22MK600M.
• VA model in this list: Dell SE2225HM.

how to choose step by step

Step 1: match your PC GPU to the monitor refresh rate. If your graphics card can push around 144 frames per second in your games at 1080p, pick a 144Hz screen like the MSI PRO MP273 E14A 27" 144Hz IPS (₹9,669). If your card gives closer to 100 fps, a 100Hz monitor like the BENQ GW2490 24" 100Hz (₹8,759) or the ViewSonic VA2408-HDJ 24" 100Hz (₹10,000) is a better fit. If your GPU often sits below 60-75 fps, a 60-75Hz screen is fine and saves money. FreeSync or adaptive sync helps when frame rates vary, but check your GPU supports it before buying.

Step 2: pick screen size and desk fit. A 27" screen shows a bigger picture and is good if you sit a little farther back. The MSI 27" 144Hz is an example for bigger displays under ₹10,000. A 24" screen is easier to fit on small desks and keeps pixels denser for clearer text and smaller UI elements; the BENQ and ViewSonic 24" 100Hz models are solid choices. Step 3: check panel and colour. Prefer IPS panels for consistent colours and wide viewing angles. The BENQ GW2490 lists 99% sRGB, which is useful for video editing and colour work. Step 4: set a strict budget under ₹10,000 and compare final prices. If a model in the facts list fits your GPU, desk space, and colour needs, pick that one rather than stretching the budget.

• Match GPU frame output to the monitor refresh rate: 144Hz for ~144 fps, 100Hz for ~100 fps, 60-75Hz for lower fps.

what matters most for gaming and trading

Refresh rate is the top priority for smooth gaming and for trading with many windows. A higher refresh rate means the screen updates more times per second, so fast motion looks clearer. The MSI PRO MP273 E14A 27" 144Hz IPS is the clear pick here if you want extra smoothness at under ₹10,000. If your PC cannot push near 144 frames, the 100Hz BENQ GW2490 or ViewSonic VA2408-HDJ are good alternatives that still make cursor movement and moving charts feel smoother than 60Hz.

Screen size matters for workspace and multi-window trading. A 27" screen like the MSI model gives more space for multiple charts and browser tabs without scaling. A 24" monitor such as the BENQ GW2490 or ViewSonic VA2408-HDJ fits small desks and keeps text crisp at Full HD. IPS panels are preferable for trading and content work because IPS gives consistent colours and wide viewing angles, so colours and brightness stay similar when you shift position. The BENQ GW2490 also lists 99% sRGB, which helps if you do some photo or video tasks alongside trading.

• Choose 144Hz MSI PRO MP273 E14A if you can use higher FPS and want more screen space.
• Choose 24" BENQ GW2490 or ViewSonic VA2408-HDJ 100Hz for tighter desks and still-smooth motion.
• Prefer IPS panels for colour consistency and shared viewing.

budget options: best value picks under ₹10,000

Here are solid value picks under ₹10,000 and who each suits. MSI PRO MP273 E14A 27" 144Hz (₹9,669) is for players who want smoother motion and a larger screen for both games at 1080p and multitasking. MSI is good if you sit a bit farther back and want bigger workspace without spending more. BENQ GW2490 24" 100Hz IPS (₹8,759) suits users who want clearer colours for casual video editing and trading with many charts. It lists 99% sRGB (a colour range measure), so colours look more accurate than typical budget screens. ViewSonic VA2408-HDJ 24" 100Hz IPS (₹10,000) fits the same crowd as the BenQ if your budget can stretch to exactly ₹10,000 today at TechCure India. BENQ GW2283 21.5" 60Hz IPS (₹7,399) is for basic gaming and office work where frame rates stay low, or for buyers who want an IPS panel on a tight budget. LG 22MK600M 21.5" 75Hz IPS (₹7,148) is for users whose GPU usually hits 60-75 fps and who want a bit more fluidity than 60Hz.

• MSI PRO MP273 E14A 27" 144Hz, ₹9,669
• BENQ GW2490 24" 100Hz IPS, ₹8,759
• ViewSonic VA2408-HDJ 24" 100Hz IPS, ₹10,000
• BENQ GW2283 21.5" 60Hz IPS, ₹7,399
• LG 22MK600M 21.5" 75Hz IPS, ₹7,148
• Dell SE2225HM 22" 100Hz VA, ₹6,539

common mistakes to avoid

Buying a 144Hz monitor when your GPU cannot reach those frames is a common mistake. If your PC only hits 60-75 fps in most games, a 100Hz or 75Hz screen gives smoother motion without wasted cost. For example, the MSI 27" 144Hz model costs ₹9,669, so check your GPU frame output before choosing it. Ignore panel type and you may get poor colours or narrow viewing angles. IPS panels (they give wider viewing angles and more consistent colours) are listed for the MSI, BenQ, ViewSonic, LG models here. A VA panel, like the Dell 22" 100Hz VA, can have deeper blacks but narrower viewing angles, which matters if you move around your desk during trading or video work.

Choosing only size, not refresh and pixel density, is another mistake. A 27" Full HD screen shows larger UI and fewer pixels per inch than a 24" at the same 1920×1080 resolution. The MSI 27" 144Hz suits users who sit farther back and want space for multiple charts. The 24" BenQ and ViewSonic 100Hz models keep text crisper on small desks. Assuming higher price always means better is wrong. Compare specs like refresh rate, panel type, and resolution rather than price alone. Examples in this price band: BenQ GW2490 (₹8,759) and ViewSonic VA2408-HDJ (₹10,000) both give 100Hz IPS; the Dell SE2225HM (₹6,539) gives 100Hz on VA. Pick the combination that matches your GPU, desk space, and work or gaming needs.

• Buying 144Hz when GPU cannot reach those frames
• Ignoring panel type (IPS vs VA)
• Picking size only, not refresh or pixel density
• Assuming higher price always means better

which product suits which buyer

Competitive FPS gamers who can drive 144Hz should pick the MSI PRO MP273 E14A 27" (₹9,669). The MSI is 27 inch and 144 Hz, so motion looks smoother when your GPU can push high frame rates. A larger 27" screen gives space for HUD and stream overlays while still playing at 1080p, and it suits players who sit a bit farther from the monitor.

Players who run many windows for trading or multiplayer matches benefit from a 27" panel for screen real estate. If you need accurate colours for occasional photo or video work alongside charts, choose the BENQ GW2490 24" 100Hz (₹8,759) because it lists 99% sRGB (a colour range measure). Casual gamers or office users who mostly see 60-75 fps can save money with the BENQ GW2283 21.5" 60Hz (₹7,399) or the LG 22MK600M 21.5" 75Hz (₹7,148). These smaller screens keep text crisp on tight desks and reduce cost without harming everyday use.

• MSI PRO MP273 E14A 27" 144Hz (₹9,669), competitive FPS gamers who can reach 144 fps and want a larger workspace.
• BENQ GW2490 24" 100Hz 99% sRGB (₹8,759), traders who also need better colour for editing.
• BENQ GW2283 21.5" 60Hz (₹7,399), casual gamers and basic office work on a budget.
• LG 22MK600M 21.5" 75Hz (₹7,148), users whose GPU averages 60-75 fps and want a small desk fit.

what to do next

Check your GPU for typical frame output in the games you play. Frame rate (frames per second, or fps) is how many images your graphics card draws each second. If your GPU usually gives 60-75 fps in 1080p gaming, pick a 60-100Hz monitor like the BENQ GW2283 (60Hz), LG 22MK600M (75Hz) or the 100Hz models such as BENQ GW2490, ViewSonic VA2408-HDJ, or Dell SE2225HM. If your GPU can often reach higher fps, consider the MSI PRO MP273 E14A 144Hz at ₹9,669. Match the monitor refresh rate to your GPU output to avoid wasted cost.
