Equipment for Virtual SA

At first I wasn't planning on buying anything but now that most BBs have announced they won't be supplying laptops or other equipment, I was hoping to start a thread about things I should buy. I know most people are recommending buying an external monitor, but honestly I had no intention of buying one until now. How useful is the bigger screen really when I heard that we won't really be touching the models this summer? I have a windows laptop with 16 gigs of ram and a decent processor as well as a decent keyboard/mouse. Is there anything else I should consider buying besides a monitor? Also feel free to drop links to the products you use down below.
