How is acer's after sales service for monitors in India? Is it as good as that of lg/Samsung?

Have you observed any kind of flickering with this panel as others have reported on amazon? Does it have a 3.5mm audio out jack?

No idea of after-sales of monitors, since they have 3 year warranty, problems shouldn't be common. For laptops, Acer is ok in terms of service, not as good as the big 3.

No flickering, I think the one caused due to PWM. No 3.5mm jack on VG240Yp.

What about Dell 22" P2219H Monitor ?
Like whitestar said, avoid it because it's not true 8-bit and your use case is video/photo editing.

Having said that, it's one of the better 6-bit+FRC monitors and you can actually find 8-bit monitors that look worse than this. But for the same price, you won't. This monitor is priced higher because the screen can be adjusted/rotated and it has a USB 3.0 hub + DisplayPort. It's great for office use, but just not the monitor for your use case.

After all the suggestions, and posts on this thread, I have FINALIZED this configuration. I am finalizing this in a week.

AMD Ryzen 5 3600 upto 4.50ghz
Asrock B450 Pro 4
Zotac GTX 1660 6GB Graphic Card
Kingston A2000 500GB NVME SSD
WD 1TB Blue HDD
Corsair 16GB X 2nos DDR4 3600Mhz RAM
Cooler Master 650watts SMPS
Antec NX800 ARGB (E-ATX) Mid Tower Cabinet with Tempered Glass side Panel (Black)
Acer KG241QP 24" Monitor

Is there really a difference between GTX 1660 Super and Zotac GTX 1660 6GB ?

Any suggestions/changes appreciated.

Main requirement - 3D Rendering and VFX.

So according to my assembler, Zotac GTX 1660 6GB Graphic Card is apparently at its 'end of life' stage. So any suggestions for the alternatives in 1660 graphic cards?

My assembler recommended the GALAX GeForce 1660 OR GALAX GeForce 1660 Super.

Any suggestions for 1660 graphic cards appreciated.

Both are same, basically. That guy earns more profit selling Galax,so he is preferring it. you stick to zotac as it gives 5 years of warranty.
So is there any alternative which is similar to Zotac? I actually want to get this done ASAP but there's a shortage of graphic cards and other components.
Thank you!

1660 Super replaced both 1660 & 1660Ti in a way at close to 1660 pricing.

1660 S is observable better than 1660. You can find Zotac GTX 1660 S for like 20k, register within 30 days of purchase to claim 3 year extra warranty (total 5).

So any alternatives if the Zotac 1660 S isn't available?

Usually, my top choice is Zotac (because of 5 year warranty), followed by Asus, MSI & Gigabyte. Generally, Asus & MSI has some good GPU models in terms of thermals & all, Zotac is usually moderate with something like RTX 3080 models being not good enough due to some poor quality capacitors.
