Because you're looking at manufacturers that primarily cater to enterprise. There is a big difference if you look at MSI or Acer for monitors generally and build your own PC.
- xenadu02 6y agoThe cheapest Kia is less expensive than a BMW. They both take you from point A to point B. Are you arguing that Kia is also a luxury brand? Or are you arguing that luxury brands aren't a thing? I honestly can't tell.
- pfisch 6y agoIs Dell a luxury brand? I have never thought that. I would expect better parts from MSI.
- bArray 6y agoI believe Alienware is a premium brand and it's a branch of Dell [1]. P.S. I miss the ridiculous Alienware XP themes [2].

- pfisch 6y agoI guess alienware is, you're right. Not like...a desirable luxury brand to me even though I am a professional game developer, but it is a luxury brand.
- TimSchumann 6y agoIn the Monitor world, Dell and HP’s business line are among the best in class, and have been for some time.
- techntoke 6y agoExcept when you actually compare the specs for gaming monitors where refresh rate and response time matter
- denkmoon 6y agoExcept typical MSI and Acer monitors are not remotely on par with the professional monitors mentioned prior. MSI and Acer's professional monitors that are approximately the same specification, amazingly, cost approximately the same price.
- techntoke 6y agoYes they are. Once you look at the actual specs beyond the name brand, you can get much better deal. Dell and Apple monitors are also going to usually be higher response time and lower hz as well, so worse performance for more money.
- denkmoon 6y agoResponse time and frequency are not the metrics that are most important for professional monitors. Colour accuracy, colour space and panel uniformity are the important metrics. Sony can sell 1080p, 60hz monitors with 5ms response time for $3k because their colour accuracy, colour space support and panel uniformity are unparalleled outside of that price bracket. Consider https://pro.sony/en_AU/products/broadcastpromonitors/lmd-a240-v3.0#ProductSpecificationsBlock-lmd-a240-v3-0 https://pro.sony/en_AU/products/broadcastpromonitors/lmd-a24... and https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1029229-REG/sony_lmda240_lmd_a240_24_lcd_production.html/overview https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1029229-REG/sony_lmda... , Sony doesn't even list the pixel response time because it's not important for the market.
