So I'm asking the A/V aficionados, what should I do? Will it be cheaper to get a converter or can I actually get a compatible TV for the same price as a good converter now?

Yes. You can get a 1080p monitor with HDMI in for cheap now. Just bit the bullet and upgrade. I didn't for the longest time because of input lag, but it's been solved so there is no downside.

Get a TV instead of a monitor though, since you'd have to buy even more gear to get the audio from the monitor output to speakers (or play only with headphones).

I rock the monitor/headphones combo. Finding a decent monitor with a 1/8 audio out isn't too hard. I run that to a set of PC speakers with a sub if I want to play it loud. It works well. Would recommend.
