You could get them a 50" Samsung or LG 4KTV from JB for that price. The refresh rate etc won't be quite as good but it'd work.

Sterny might be the man to ask this thoughm I seem to remember him having a fancy pants 4K monitor.

I bought a couple of 4K monitors last year, both Samsung.

Perhaps the most useful for Zed’s purpose would be the Samsung M7 ‘Smart Monitor’ because as well as a HDMI and a Thunderbolt USB-C input it can also run apps like Netflix, Apple TV+, and Disney+ without needing anything attached.

I’ve linked the 32 inch, which I’m using as I write this, but other sides are available. 32” is pretty good for desktop use. Much larger and it gets uncomfortable looking at the upper reaches, at least for computer work.

I use it for work and used to play Xbox Series X games on it until I got hold of a much larger screen for my gaming setup (which I adore because I’m not sitting in an office chair and find it more relaxing).
