I’m in the market for a monitor for programming. Ideally:
- A monitor that can be adjusted vertically
- A monitor that can rotated 90 degrees, so the long side is vertical
Either one of these (or both) specifications is preferred, though both is not necessary. I’m on a budget, so nothing more than $500 USD.
Display rate doesn’t matter (60hz is fine), and 1080p is fine too.
Anyone know of any good monitors like this?
Edit: By “rotated 90 degrees”, I’m referring to the monitor being able to rotate on its stand, not being mounted on its side.


$500 is your max budget and 1080p is even a consideration?
We have a bunch of these at work and I like them. For $500 you can almost get 2 of them. You can also get a cheap 4k display with a VESA mount for like $200 + a monitor arm for like $50 and move the display wherever you want. As long as the display isn’t TN it’ll be fine.
