Help with a monitor recommendation?

My Asus VE228H 21.5" has treated me well, but its age is beginning to show. I use it mostly to game on a regular PS4, so it doesn't need to be 4K or anything super fancy. Any recommendations for a frugal monitor that would be an upgrade to the VE228H? Thanks in advance, y'all. Any questions...

Can't boot -- HDD works for ~20 seconds and then nothing

PSU installed, still the same situation. Per recommendation I tried each stick of RAM individually, appears one of the sticks is bad. Powered through to Windows with the good stick inserted.

If so, this was the PSU I had: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817371034 Any suggestions on a new one? Any benefit to one with higher wattage?

I didn't notice anything swollen or blown on the mobo, safe to assume it's a PSU issue? I don't have a backup to use to check, should I go ahead and grab another?

Best 'bang for your buck' laptop? ~$1200 limit

Minimal gaming, so that does not need to be a major focus. Just looking for the best resolution/screen and fastest/most powerful monster that is a great value for the price. Anyone have any suggestions? Looking to spend upwards of $1000, but doesn't need to be so pricey if something is more...

GPU overheating? Time to replace?

I sent this to MSI at the beginning of the month, and it's still "in replacement, testing, or repair process". Very frustrating, going to be about a month without a GPU.

Line 'etched' into monitor; replaceable?

I sent this out in the beginning of the month and had it back to me within two weeks. They replaced the screen. All is well! Thanks for the advice.

GPU overheating? Time to replace?

Just got off the phone with Nvidia (who apparently was the wrong person to call, MSI is who I need to get an RMA from) and the service rep was actually very resourceful and tried to help as much as he could.. Ended up saying that the power supply was not optimal for the card (I run a 430w, he...
