Yarik Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 There are some monitors with a touchscreen available. If you are a PC gamer would you get one of these? Any reason? Personally, I don't think that type of technology is for the PC market so I would never get a touchscreen monitor. It's just useless for me.

Demon_skeith Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Touchscreens are kind of a gimmick fad that died out a few years ago, unless you are playing a click to shoot game, I don't see how you could use a touch screen to play anything extreme.

JennyorAlice Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 I'm with D_S on this one. Unless I was playing some kind of click to shoot game, I don't really see the benefit of getting something like this for my PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DylanC Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Not something I'd like for a PC, honestly. Wouldn't it just get the screen all smudged up with messy fingerprints? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shortie861 Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Touch screen monitors never really interested me if I am honest. I have been using PC's for years and I am so used to the keyboard and mouse method that even if I was to have a touch screen I probably still wouldn't use it so it would be a waste of money for me. I know some people who have touch screens and they got one just to say they had one but again, don't really bother using it and use the keyboard and mouse method so I'm thinking to myself, why? It really was a popular thing for a while and then died out like most things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexander. Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 There are some video games that wouldn't be compatible with touch screen. Two games on the top of my head are GTA 5 and Fortnite as moving between keyboards, mouse and your screen wouldn't work and you would end up dead by your enemy or opppent. Your montior would also end with grease and dirt all over it and you would struggle to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayson Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 (edited) I see it as a bit silly. Well, it's mostly a subjective thing. I don't really see the need for touchscreen stuff - apart from mobile phones - based on my needs. However, I can see why some people might like them. Anyway, for my POV, I pretty much don't like any interface without a mouse. Edited November 22, 2018 by Jayson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerlene Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 I have a touchscreen PC but I usually turn off the touch screen function. I have a bad habit of touching the wrong spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katri Marcell Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 I have a touch screen on my laptop. It seemed like a cool idea at first but it's a gimmick. I never use it and forget it even exists 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 I think if you want to play games then touchscreen monitors can be pretty bad because unlike mobile they have bigger screen giving more chances of overwhelming yourself. And it can be pretty bad in terms of the content to be visible on the screen. And then trying to get the content to interact and then it may affect the screen more if user rage quits on the screen. Mobile can still be easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
