Best Budget monitors for Coders and Hackers

Adding an external monitor to your setup is an essential part if you are a programmer, hacker or coder. This is because most of the hackers & coders use linux operating system for carrying out their work. The main problem arises when more than 4 or 5 terminals pop up and you dont have sufficient screen size to adjust and focus on all of em and you end up being frustrated 🙁 .

But why use an extra monitor?

As a Hacker/cybersec guy:

Let it be a case when a hacker is exploiting a loophole but the vulnerability type ain’t mentioned in the Metasploit payload list then , he has to open 3 different terminals to know the specific vulnerability alongwith a g-editor to script the payload using python or has to script the keylogger at the same time along with 3 to 4 different tools,the whole system looks so messed up, ufff!.

As a programmer/coder/developer:

Also, when a programmer has to develop something at the same time looking out for a logic from stackoverflow , at the sametime learning it through a video, implementing in an IDE and also git committing the same work, he/she has to use an external monitor to make the work sorted and clear.

Without wasting more time, on the logic part, lets move onto the number 1st budget monitor of our list:
