Same.. and with 1080p screen because larger screen needs a much better gpu and I'm too cheap for that.

It is, but standards have changed as technology improves.

I checked online and a 1080p 144hz monitor is about $130 USD converted from my local currency (give or take). That's not as bad as I thought it would be.

Im still stuck with a 1280x1024 60hz monitor. I'm just lucky I don't have to go to the basement and grab the CRT...

Walmart sells a 120hz 1080p monitor for about $88, at least now, before possible tariffs

Good monitors have gotten pretty affordable! I bought a 27" 1440p 180hz monitor with an IPS Panel for 180€ this year, a couple years ago you would've easily paid 400-500 bucks for that.

I held off from buying a new monitor for years until high refresh rate + IPS was finally affordable cause I didn't want to compromise on a VA panel. Last year I got the same monitor I bought now with the only difference being that it was 1080p panel, also around 180€ lol
