More and more of what we do on our computers can benefit from the big-screen treatment, from browsing the internet to home video editing, and plenty of people are even replacing their TV with a computer monitor. You can learn more about the market with our monitor buying guide.

We utilise the Minimum Energy Performance Standard (MEPS) data from energyrating.gov.au to review these models and base our recommendations on the best energy use and largest screen size.

Shopping links on the CHOICE website

CHOICE is an independent, nonprofit organisation dedicated to helping consumers. Clicking a link will take you to a retailer's website to shop. While we make money if you buy through some retailer links, this doesn't influence any of our rankings. 100% of the money we make goes straight back into our nonprofit mission. We're currently testing this service and will consider providing more shopping links in the future.
