I'm looking for a good, fast LCD monitor for retro emulation.
While I'd like to get my hands on a CRT monitor, I'm very picky about what I'm looking for and after months of searching around and coming up empty handed, I've pretty much decided to cut my losses and go the flat panel route for the time being. Would anyone here know of some good recommendations of flat panel PC monitors with 90 degree rotation for TATE (vertical shmups), little to no lag, has support for VGA (Dreamcast via VGA box), and can manually match the wacky refresh rates for arcade games like Mortal Kombat and R-Type @ 55hz & ?
I'd like to go the G-Sync & FreeSync route, but both options are too expensive for me to afford right now.
The best I saw so far were LCDs specifically designed for arcade monitors, but they're only available as panels, lack stands and cost several hundred dollars.
