**Refresh Rate and Response Time**: You definitely want to look for a monitor with a high refresh rate, like 144Hz or even 240Hz if you can swing it. This means smoother gameplay, especially in fast-paced games. Also, check the response time—lower is better, like 1ms or 2ms, to avoid ghosting.

**Resolution and Size**: Think about what resolution you want. 1080p is standard, but if you want something sharper, go for 1440p or even 4K if your rig can handle it. And don’t forget the size! A 27-inch monitor is pretty sweet for gaming, but it really depends on your desk space.

**Panel Type**: The type of panel matters too. IPS panels give you better colors and viewing angles, while TN panels are usually faster but not as vibrant. VA panels can offer a good balance, so consider what’s more important for your gaming style.
