You guys think I should go with that?
@olive token what do you think?
im using a aoc gaming monitor it was just $244 144hz 27'' 1ms has freesync and my gsync works with it.
has to do some tweaks to get it to my liking but not bad for the price
@summer zephyr I have the AD27QD and I can testify that it's amazing. Beautiful colors and excellent response and refresh rate.
It's not curved (I prefer flat) but it's still awesome.
Ok
I have about 7-900 to spend on a monitor or monitors
27" CRG5 240HZ CURVED GAMING MONITOR
This was also a contender if you know if it’s any good
You mean 700 to 900?
for 700-900, honestly i'd look towards 1440p ultrawide like this
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0777RY75V?tag=georiot-us-default-20&th=1&psc=1&ascsubtag=tomsguide-custom-tracking-20
That is not bad 120hz as well
honestly even 700 is a lot for a monitor, only thing more expensive is nearly only 4k 144hz ips monitors
My old monitor was 650 I believe. The Lenovo y27g razor edition. I’m not rly looking for more than 27 inches. I loved that monitor but ultrawides are too big for my liking
You guys think I should go with this?
GIGABYTE AORUS CV27Q-SA 27" Quad HD 2560x1440 165Hz 1ms 2xHDMI DisplayPort AMD Radeon FreeSync and G-SYNC Compatible HDR Flicker-Free USB 3.0 Hub Widescreen LED Backlight Curved Gaming Monitor
Or this
I narrowed it down to those two
id rather go with the 27GL850-B since its IPS and nearly all the same specs for like $130 cheaper
Its not curved though which is what im looking for and I have a big budget
Too wide for me. I like the AORUS CV27Q bc it has everything I need and the size I like
Gives me money to spend on speakers and rocket league
Hello, I am new to this group. Referred by NewEgg employee. I am interested in guidance in expanding my stock trading abilities. I currently have a 27” IMAC (circa 2012 year model) I would like to somehow add up to 3 additional monitors with a potential mounting stand for additional monitors. The current IMac would pose a problem in the visual configuration of other monitors. I have plus or minus $1,000 to contribute to this monitor setup idea. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks
So...what cable do I need to use to get my 144hz? I’m using the display port and getting 60hz.
you gotta set it in your display settings
make sure you plug your displayport into the displayport sl0t of your gpu
I did
Question, does anyone know why when your desktop feels laggy after you turn on laptop with external monitor first then switch to laptop monitor then back to monitor and then it lags?
(lmk if my question is not comphrensible, I can re write again.)
Are you switching which display is actually, displaying or are you using it like 2 monitors simultaneously
Not 2 monitors simultaneously, switching displays
Um is my question not making sense?
Kinda
if you're switching back and forth between displays then it's gonna take a second to catch up
My laptop starts up with HDMI cable hooked to external monitor display, and when it's on the external display i switch to laptop display and then switch back to external monitor again then it feels laggy on external monitor. It's solved by restarting.
Does that make sense now?
Hey guys. Any recommendations for a monitor that has really good picture quality?
Looking for under $600. 1440p or 4k. Doesn't matter. 144hz not neccessary, but welcome. Also needs to be durable. It's for my truck on the road. So pretty rough goings for it.
@junior matrix i really like the AD27QD, 1440p 144Hz, 10 bit IPS and HDR and anti glare screen so it's really nice imo
honestly can't suggest any monitor that is going to be bouncing around in a truck.
big rig?
@spare egret I actually had that one in my cart already lol. I just got told that the pixio prime 7 is basically the same but cheaper
Yes. Big rig
ah ok
@junior matrix i'm using the AD27QD rn but i have no idea about the pixio one
How about the pg279qz
It's good, but an older panel, same 144, 1440p , hardware gsync AUO component in the Acer xb271hu . Maybe if one goes on sale for 400 new or something
@spare egret the px7 primes uses the same panel, and it’s gone down to like 380 on sale
I have it, solid monitor
does anyone have a better idea for budget 4k monitor than MG28UQ?
I recently got a new gpu that only has 1 hdmi port and i need that for my ce headset, so i bought 2 dp to hdmi adapters because my monitors don't have dp ports. when i plugged my monitors in, they starting flashing, or turning on and off maybe. then i tried only one adapter with the other monitor in the hdmi port and the monitor with the adapter was having color variations and was fluzzy. the adapter is Nurbenn DisplayPort (DP) to HDMI Adapter, 4K HDMI Converter - Black
sounds like a bad adapter
Sounds like a passive adapter that might also suffer from bad qc, $6 on newegg can be hit or miss on dongles.
This may help https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/729232-guide-to-display-cables-adapters-v2/
Glenwings Guide to Display Cables / Adapters (v2) This Revision: 2.4.9 (2019-06-25) (If you can see this message without needing to examine the page source, then something somewhere has gone terribly wrong) BEHOLD, the terrible programming of the one known as GLENWING, first ...
it claims to be active
Guessing your monitors aren't dual mode and are sending the wrong signal. Thoe are passive adapters.
Actives are for a differnet use case - usually to go between either dp/hdmi etc while still retaining the max res + refresh + bit depth as the source signal.
can you recommend one for me?
i don't want to waste more money on another that won't work
Got a link to your full build parts list? If not, running a userbenchmark.com and linking it here is the easy option for 90% of the relevant info.
i'm not home right now, i'll send you both when i do get home
@maiden wedge ^
is LED better than LCD or is it the other way around
I believe LCDs are usually better when it comes to color accuracy
Just built a pc getting no signal rip
If everything else is working but it just isn't showing up
try using a different pci-E slot
Havent quite obtained a graphics card yet using inegrated graphics in the mean time...i might try vga to see if its an issue with hdmi port
What motherboard and CPU are you using?
Thank you 😂 cpu is ryzen 7 1800x no integrated grapihcs
Well that would explain it then
Sounds like you need a 2400G 😛
Im looking to buy a second monitor but dont know what to get. Do you guys have any suggestions
What is the purpose of the second monitor, like just discord or?
Does anyone know if this monitor is good It’s a 165hz monitor
@slate hamlet i want to try streaming and my current monitor is a real bottleneck to my current build so really im just looking for a new monitor
If it's for the chat then basically anything will do
oh is your current monitor not able to match what your system puts out
Yeah
I got a 2080ti but that used up much of my budget so I got a 144hz 1080p monitor. Its not bad but I know my gpu is capable of much more
what are the benefits of curved over normal
That is also the monitor i was looking at
its just preference
what he said
Is there a price difference between curved and normal
Repair stuck pixels using the JScreenFix algorithm.
Ive noticed msi curved r cheaper than regular
guys i have a compatability question about a specific setup and a specific monitor. Wanting to know if they will work together optimally
Monitor - https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16824260555
I don't see how it would not work together
The system can handle 1440p without a problem
sweet ty
That monitor is significantly above 1440p though
that is closer to 4k in terms of raw pixels than 1440, i think
That system will still be able to handle it, but in AAA titles it won't be running at 120 fps on highest settings
no, it's definitely closer to 1440 in terms of raw pixels, but it's still a lot more than a non-ultrawide 1440
Should still get at least 60 fps though I think
$11,463.57 USD for that adjusted for inflation
What cheapskates, not even a flatscreen
and the bezels, good lord
shameful display of...uh, displays
i'm actually kind of salivating of a CRT with that resolution at 240hz or something crazy lol
2k nits, i always wanted to be blind https://www.usa.canon.com/internet/portal/us/home/products/details/reference-displays/4k-uhd-reference-displays/dp-v3120

Hello I had a question about hooking my laptop up to a high refresh rate monitor
or possibly a dock if you dont have built in output
If your using apple
Pretty sure most modern laptops come with hdmi ports
Windows that is
Well all would include Micro/Mini/HDMI
Idk bout all that
i was more saying that i dont know his laptop so it is a possibility
Every computer does have a usb port tho
If it is an older laptop it would have VGA
If your pc doesnt have an hdmi then you can get a usb to hdmi Connector
Ya. Vga. But if u have a newer monitor you’ll need a vga to dvi
There are still some newer monitors that still has VGA on it
some of these companies knows that people still like using older systems on their monitors
Idk. I dont mess with that old tech
Besides you don't know how many USB ports is on his laptop and if they are in use already
For all we know he could have 2 USB ports
lol
My laptop does not have a display port
and it is a 144hz monitor
I do not know if the monitor supports 144hz hdmi
It will

O_O whoa
Well I mean just how risky is it
Should I get the Samsung C27JG56 or the MSI Optix MAG271CQR
In big need of a monitor upgrade, the only difference spec wise is 1ms response time bs 4ms and I’ve never had a high end monitor so idk is the 3ms is work the extra 70$
Well if you're gaming fastest response time is best
anyone know if the asus VG248QE supports 144hz dp??
it does have a displayport connection @onyx scroll
will it display 144 hz?
yeah, displayport is usually used to do 144hz default @onyx scroll
is the monitor i listed supports 144hz on dp?
yes
but i wouldnt buy it unless its on super sale
its one of the first 144hz 1ms monitors, there are much newer 144hz 1ms monitors out now with improvements
Can someone give me a 144hz monitor sub 200 with thinish bezels
Anybody know any good 4k monitors?
Look at this monster
XD
lol why the calculator
couldn't they just use the cpomputer
cpoputuer
computatader
So I’ve got a slight problem
My MSI Optix G24C Fell over when I tilted it slightly downward and it shattered after impacting my keyboard and mouse. What should I do
that isn't a slight problem
I don't know if warranty covers user error
maybe
contact msi
least you can do is try
I’ve tried to contact msi but there chat is closed and I would have to call them and I have a feeling I would be on hold for a long time. Just due to the time it is
jesus christ
So uh
is this thing real?
or has best buy gone off the deep end with it's marketing
@clear island it is real but id personally go for the Insignia one's
I have seen Hisense before and the picture/color quality isn't that bad but the Insignia models i find they look sharper
I mean I could care less lol
It is 120hz
and I should be able to compensate for that software wise
I was asking if the 120 was real
That is the part I care about
Well got to remember that usually the 120hz is more for gaming console and other things while using it as a PC monitor would most likely be in the 60hz
??
explain
why?
are you saying it's just frame interpolating?
but if it can do that
It is just the way TV's are and also the ms you would usually get is like 8 to 15ms
Acer Gaming Series ED323QUR Abidpx 32" (Actual size 31.5") 2560 x 1440 2K Resolution 144Hz 4ms DisplayPort HDMI DVI AMD FreeSync LED Backlit Curved Gaming Monitor https://m.newegg.com/product/N82E16824011234?m_ver=1
This is the monitor I have and I love it
That looks really nice
For using a 2080 1440p would be the best thing to go for
It’s a great monitor. I was concerned about 32” but it’s not too bad honestly
The 2080 Super is fantastic for it. 1440p but not usually the 144fps it could show.
27" would be my limit for a monitor
That’s fair
I used a 32" TV once for my monitor and cause of the distance i sit and the games i play there was too much neck movements which was a pain
i like to see everything without moving my head
lol yeah I don't move my neck either
smooth eye movements
no microsaccades
I have a fair bit of visual dield I am not using though
field
visual field
I always put my Fov above 100 too
So since I broke my msi monitor. I was thinking if it’s not covered under warranty or I can’t repair it with msi I would upgrade to 1440P 144hz. Does anyone know any good monitors other than the previously linked Acer monitor.
I connected my monitor to a laptop when I full screen a game it automatically locks on to 30 FPS any fixes?
is ur v sync on
nope
and there's sometimes in games settings that let you limit fps
well Im on Fortnite
hdmi
Already tried
hmm
that's weird
idk much about connecting a monitor to a laptop
Don't know what else to try
If it has Nvidia control panel try selecting the external monitor as a PhysX device
Go to global settings, restore, then make sure v-sync isn't on adaptive. - unrelated to "adaptive sync" as a monitor mode
Hey all, just bought an Acer VG270U P, and it intermittently flickers completely black. Drivers are up to date. Been browsing online and it does not seem to be a completely isolated incident, but wondered if anyone could offer any insight. Been tinkering with my GPU settings, and it seems to help a little bit. GPU is a Radeon RX 580 series.
Did you check if your connection between the monitor and you system is solid?
Yes completely solid
Power is not an issue either, as when the screen goes black, power light is still on
You're using a desktop right
yup
check to see if your GPU is really aligned cause sometimes if it is not the connection could be half way in without you knowing
So I have a dual monitor set up, and neither of my monitors had any issue till now.
It has been 5-6 months
Replaced the older one with the Acer
Did you turn on any modes you weren't aware of and also did you turn on FreeSync
You actually have to turn it on from the monitor settings
some monitors can have like 2 to 3 different FreeSync options
Like mine for FreeSync has standard and ultimate
@coarse oak what is your GPU as well
Ok and also in Adrenalin did you turn on FreeSync from there (cause default it is off on that)
Yeah in Adrenalin I tried turning that off
For FreeSync to work you need it on from there and in your monitor settings
also after you enable those it is usually best to restart your system
What exactly does FreeSync do and why do you think it is necessary to have on?
Just trying to understand
FreeSync reduces motion blur and screen tearing
This is the best example i can show https://i.gyazo.com/f1981f7161755a4b6e37995c47d41688.png
Ahh okay. So do you think that having freesync off is part of the reason it flickers
Could be which it is good to turn that on and also for your monitor settings to see if there is anything that might look unusual
Oh and one other thing
Go in here and click on Advanced display settings https://i.gyazo.com/34b201841a15df8c32aee92e508037e3.png
just to also see if you are on the proper refresh rate
So the refresh rate is 144hz, which is what I thought it should be. Should I try decreasing that?
144hz is fine
was just letting you check cause sometimes Windows likes to have it on 59 point something hz
hah yeah that is what my other monitor is set to
the one that works
So where would I turn freesync on other than adrenalin?
Well i am using Nvidia now but i would believe on the bottom where it might say settings
My bad, miscommunication from my part. In the display settings you were saying that there was a free sync option there as well?
the monitor settings rather
Display settings would be for your refresh rate and Adrenaline would be for freesync
Right, but you said there would be multiple places to turn free sync on?
You do that in Adrenaline and on your monitor settings
@coarse oak I have to go for awhile but if you have anything else to ask just ping intender
is your gsync on?
if u have a freesync monitor it should work
@coarse oak it would be through your geforce control panel
Yeah so Freesync is on in my AMD control panel
u have amd video card?
yup
o ok yea just make sure its on on the control panel as well as set to 144 on the monitor
when u game set your ingame options to 144
and you should be set
Yeah that is what I thought as well. I think My GPU is struggling with this monitor
I opened a game from 5 years ago, wouldn't even start
Messed with some options, found some stuff on forums. Adjusted the power allocated to the GPU and the game would start, but it would get choppy.
Meanwhile, the game works perfectly fine on my old monitor
Kind of bizarre
The monitor is an Acer VG270UP
If it isn't the GPU, I have no idea what could be causing such a performance discrepancy
Variable refresh rate techs like freesync can be buggy with multi-monitor configs in windows. Best to keep any hardware accelerated programs on the main display, use a VESA certified DP cable, disable fullscreen optimizations on the game's executable, then follow the blurbusters guide bible on variable refresh rate (VRR) optimal settings.
https://www.blurbusters.com/gsync/gsync101-input-lag-tests-and-settings/14/
i turn freesync off because everytime i minimize a fullscreen app it flickers black before recovering
kk I will gave that a shot
Does anyone know if this 144hz 1440P Monitor is good https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00N2L5CXO?tag=pcpapi-20&linkCode=ogi&th=1&psc=1
Hey, new to having a pc, and im looking for a monitor. any recommendations? What brands are good?

this is a fantastic deal
$300 monitor for $100
i have one, i love it
its great for gaming
if youre using it for watching movies or looking at photos, id look for an IPS panel. But if youre gaming, that one is FANTASTIC.
is it good for gaming?
@vague zinc it has some great reviews. One of the things I’m looking for is stand stability. Because I had some bad luck with my msi monitors stand
its g sync compadible
Ok
i have a super wobbly desk and the monitor doesnt wobble at all
My hp stand is great
also this dell one rotates
Yes that seems like a nice thing to have
yeah
This is what happened to my msi monitor. That’s why I’m looking for a new one
The monitor would tip over when tilted downward at all. And it got tilted downward a small amount and fell straight onto my mouse and shattered
oof
well thats just stupid lol
I don’t anymore
I can tell
That’s nice
https://www.amazon.com/LG-65SM8600PUA-Alexa-Built-NanoCell/dp/B07PP4882Q/ 120hz :p not sure if you could actually get that to display on a 4k rez tho
I think the monitor I linked is the exact same stand just a different panel
I tried the 4k TV at my fam's vacy rental
120hz for 1080
120 for 2k
only 60 for 4K
I wanna 4k 120
Lg
link?
They make 120hz 4K compatibly g sync TVs
Yea
I don’t know which one. Linus and bitwit put out videos on it
It’s an oled but it’s like 2-4 k
hmmm. Intersting
And 1440
because i'M SO CLOSE
How close do you sit
I’m on my phone so I don’t have to worry about that
lol if I moved back like 10 more cm I wouldn't see them
but then my arms wouldn't be comfy
1440 would prob fix it
or just a smaller display at 1080
You can get 1440 240hz but not any higher right now. At least that’s what the internet is providing
this might be the best option tbh. Realistically, at nice rez my games are not gonna render at 240
also it's not too much bigger than my current monitor
oh then I saw the price
😢
I don’t even think a 2080ti would run that without crying
lol yeah there is no way
That would require getting used to
wait acer has a 27" too
wait that's refurbished
I don’t know how much I would trust that stand
Yea but still it’s more convenient and you may want to use it. I’m just saying it looks like it would be very wobbly
What I’m the world is typolationulartion
lol I wa scommenting on typoing
Well i wish you like in finding a monitor.
I wish everyone has good monitor stability and does not shatter their display. Good night
Good night
this seems like a great option if you don't mind using an alternative stand
just 2k
but still
I wonder if I should go 2 monitor or 1 ultra wide with my GTX 1650 setup.
non super?
Yea. Zotac’s low profile version
@fair plover What is your intended use case?
Lately it’s been 50/50. Light gaming, SWTOR, Path of Exile, Star Trek Online, maybe the new Phoenix Point, and the other half YouTube and multi tasking stuff
planning on hooking up a console to your monitor(s)?
The occasional Xbox stream of a game to the monitor while the wife watches Dr. Pol. Lol
So no hooking up. The streaming to the monitor has been flawless
depends on how much you weight that part of it.
I’m also thinking of a single 27 inch 144, I know I won’t get to 144.
what resolution on the 27?
1080p most likely. I have not done 1440 gaming before.
Personally i find 1080p@27inch to be a tad big pixelwise. However, my usecase is a 10/90 split between gaming/work
ideally, try and see if you can get your eyeballs on a 1080p@27, so you can see if that is the case for you too
as in, see if you can visit a store with displays in demo mode
a picture/talk about it, only really tells you "so" much
Very true. Hey thanks!
there are plenty of clients that have machines with 1080p@27 and they are very happy with it.
and there are also plenty that curse loudly when they try that :)
it is very much personal preference.
and considering the normal lifetime of a display, it is imo worth spending the time to try and get it right the first time around :)
and you are very welcome :)
if going 1080p i'd go 24in
I have both 27in and 24in 1080p
I see no difference.
but then again I'm blind af.
😛
Box uses sonar to see what we say 😛
does anyone know if the Samsung - 390 Series 24" LED Curved FHD FreeSync Monitor is good? i know it only has has 60hz and a 4 millisecond respond rate but im getting what i can afford (im not a adult)
hello?
is it me.. you're lookin' foooooor.

Any recommendations for a decent monitor that's cheap?
Same^ $250 or Under
Anyone have and recommendations for a cheap 144hz with dvi-d? Its hard to find one with dvi-d as i have a older graphics card with no dp.
What gpu
ok guys great question to u LG 27" 27GL850-B vs ASUS TUF Gaming VG27AQ 27 psi .
im just regular gamer
LG
For me i always find that LG is always better
Just because a monitor says "gaming" in it doesn't mean it's good
"Gaming" TVs are trash imo lol (ik kinda unrelated but its an example)
and yes LG is muy bueno 👍
u know that it has spec
yep i know that the monitors have specs

why dont liked it asus one
Then why did you ask
Asus makes good products but their customer support is pretty crappy
i need to details for decision
When i shop for things i always look at video and Newegg reviews what it has the panel and such and lastly the cost
i was expect kinda "lg has great color acc"
i did everything what regular customer does

Ohhh, well their websites kinda review that stuff although bias. I'd look into Youtube reviews (non sponsored)
checked already
linus said best gamer monitor 2019
1 month later asus model appeard
u know pepega moment

For a monitor really there really isn't a best because i have seen Tech Tubers mention this and this is the best but it comes down to would it really be good for you will you have eye problems or not those thing
really
amazon fake review farms are a real thing.
I have people recommend me monitors in the past saying i should get this one cause it is 144hz and fits my budget but because the panel is a VA it would be bad for me cause VA panels really hurts my eyes
VA is between TN and IPS you know sort of like a mix of 2 and also i am showing examples to what i was trying to explain
i see
Reason: Bad word usage
im currenty using tn panel
which is why there really isn't a best cause there can be somethings in one monitor that you wouldn't like
also no swearing
yeah bro i know
u know i just need to support like "ok buy it this good" someting like that
the panel i am using now is a PLS panel
so you know PLS is pretty much Samsung's version of a IPS
those monitors has gsync comp but i have actuall gsync modul
could be any problem for me ?_
i mean tearing issues
you shouldn't experience any tearing
you don't want my monitor it is only 60hz
I would really go for LG since it is usually the better company as well
Only other company i would go for but this is for me is ViewSonic
yeah i also using tv lg one
Bro my monitor is 27 bucks
DVI and VGA port lmao
Acer X203H 20"
it's LCD too
old stuff
I use a 4:3 LCD monitor for my Raspberry Pi lol
It's actually not too bad; since I got it used it has two or three dark spots but they're not terribly noticeable
arcade games looks better on it
@solemn yarrow I've actually thought about using a Pi for Discord and emulators exclusively
Get a little 10" monitor for the guy
If you were to buy a Pi go for the 4gb Pi 4
btw im not competitive player
1gb would be a little bit laggy and the 2gb is decent
just i want to see good color as i can buy
idk man that's a lot for a tiny cheap computer, I might just recycle my Optiplex 780 when my new parts come in
95% of games i own are single player games
my new PC won't be using DDR3 anyways
and i have over 300 games on steam
For PC gaming i use my desktop
but 144 hz really smooth compare to 60 hz
Ohh
i use my Pi for arcade emulation
Makes sense
and when i stream (when i have time) i use my laptop for the chat room
u playing consol games ?
my dad has like 4 different raspberry pi 2s around the house, including one he uses for movies and stuff on our TV
Only consoles i own and play on it my PS2, Nvidia Shield (and yes it is a android TV console) and my Nintendo Switch
i am in my 30's
cool
yo I've actually thought about getting the Nvidia Shield
my issue is compatibility with most games, since it hasn't opened up a ton towards that.
Wait
they're moving it towards cloud gaming, I almost forgot
They have cloud gaming already on the Shield
been like a year now
the only problem is you need a very good conntecion
O
I got accepted into testing for Project xCloud (Xbox cloud gaming), and ngl it isn't too bad on 2.4ghz connection
definitely see some tough spots with it also being a router for a family of 5, each owning about 3-4ish devices each
This is my connection so i have no real issues https://i.gyazo.com/ed574f6cfb1f6ae103ae38d04254fbc4.png
It works pretty good but like i said you need a really good connection
which one important arround here up or down
This is also another feature for the Shield that i like
only problem is i need a Logitech C920 if i was to stream with a cam
clean desk 
Geforce Now is the cloud gaming service they have on it and you can see there is streaming settings so you can stream on Twitch
that is my dresser cause that is where my consoles are
This is my desk

I like your setup dude. It has "gamer" kind of vibes to it, while keeping it look like someone actually uses it (but not a bad messy)
Oooh nice case
Oh dangit my guess was close
I was gonna guess the Rosewill Magnetar
after a quick google search, ive come to a conclusion that I'm just stupid
which is good actually front panel 3 fan or just yours couldnt decide
Well that case is different it is 3 bottom 1 rear and if i want to i can put 2 more on the side
wdym side ? front ?
if you are talking about the warning sticker no i like having that on
good reminder for friends to know it is actually glass
This is also what i mean by the side if i wanted to https://images10.newegg.com/BizIntell/item/11/147/11-147-298/b3_050619.jpg
can see i can add in 2 more
first one is really good setup for air cooler solutions
which is mine too
500D RGB SE PREMIUM i want this case so hard
YOOO have you guys seen that iBuyPower case that has the display built into the side panel?
but urs so good too
Actually the second one is better
It's the iBUYPOWER Snowblind
wanna know why
do I wanna know why
yeah i watched today linus good
This is the right side of the case https://images10.newegg.com/BizIntell/item/11/147/11-147-298/b2_050619.jpg
but pricey i thinkl
you can see air vents there
Ryzen 5 2600 and my GPU is a GTX 1660 from EVGA
oh that's a good build
good for now but in like 3 years i would need to change the GPU
yeah
better than console right there tbh
My friend's got a RX 590 and a Ryzen 5 2600 coming in
I'm irritated though because he REFUSES to do his research for building. I helped him pick out his parts and his monitors/cables. guess how he's building it
his dad's friend is gonna build it. Like bro can I at least help darn
Next year is the next gen consoles
500 bucks for em
It's literally cheaper anymore to just build a PC
and upgrade it by a little when a new console comes out
whats ur cpu temp while full stress
Let me see if my video shows it
video doesn't show but when monitoring using Cinebench i get 60c max
gaming i would assume around 55c
Both can stress a CPU and even CPU-Z can stress it
I still have a 1280x1024 Xerox from 2004 :))
@whole sorrel i have a monitor from 2002
fax
what type is yours?
my monitor: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07TGMC29J
dunnu why I imagined you might have a crt :p
I'm relying on this one fullscreen tho man 😔
i used to only be able to either play on the floor in my living room or play on a 15inch and i chose the 15inch
so i know hoe it feels 

as a benefit I guess my weak gpu doesn't have to drive an HD monitor
what gpu
gt 730 with 2gb ddr3
i have a gt750 lol
o nice
but thats in my old pc
smh got me good again 😔
it was a prebuilt technically
my dad made it so its prebuilt by my dad
ah xd
it use IDE lol
i have a few systems that i bought from my school and took the parts out and sold them to get profit and with that profit i got my 500gb ssd
512*
man I wish I took advantage of all the Optiplexes at school
I wonder if they're still using them
my school isnt
it's more likely they're almost fully chromebook though so I doubt
they upgraded to chromebooks
rip
im 15 btw
ah I'm 18
and when i did the buying and selling of parts i was 11
yeah
That's awesome @night carbon !
What was ur first build?
My build is based on an HP ProDesk
I plan to wedge an RM750, a 1660 Super, and an i5 4790 in this thing eventually
right now i have the RM750, just haven't installed
it only matters for the GPU
i just tried and aborted a Ryzen build, because there was a part that was not working and i couldn't tell what it was - I can't really invest more time or money into the build though maybe i'll have the motherboard replaced just to be sure, and grab a new CPU to replace the R3 2200G of questionable provenance i had in there, grab a hyper T2 because it's got the old AMD mount which I absolutely adore and I'm glad AMD left it on the AM4 standard
what mobo tho
looking for a good 240hz monitor, budget is 400
http://rtings.com, http://tftcentral.co.uk, and the blurbusters forums / /r/monitors are where I'd search around to see what models fit your budget/preference/availability.
The benq XL2540 and XL2546 although not the newest, are still very popular among CSGO pro's (and similar games)
@dawn karma https://www.amazon.com/Acer-XF250Q-Cbmiiprx-FREESYNC-Technology/dp/B07G3GRFSZ/ref=sr_1_5?crid=Y5ZN2LR4J3JZ&keywords=240hz+monitor&qid=1575661178&sprefix=240%2Caps%2C160&sr=8-5 , https://www.amazon.com/Alienware-25-Gaming-Monitor-Height-Adjustable/dp/B0733YCKM5/ref=sr_1_3?crid=Y5ZN2LR4J3JZ&keywords=240hz+monitor&qid=1575661242&sprefix=240%2Caps%2C160&sr=8-3 and https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-27-Inch-Curved-Monitor-LC27RG50FQNXZA/dp/B07TGMC29J/ref=sr_1_4?crid=Y5ZN2LR4J3JZ&keywords=240hz+monitor&qid=1575661242&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&sprefix=240%2Caps%2C160&sr=8-4
with your budget you can really get any 240hrz monitor
depending if you like a 27' or 24' inch monitor prices and response time might vary but again with your budget it wont matter too much
@winged oriole the problem is that i live in israel and im looking for a monitor that cost about 1500 shekels which is about 400 dollars maybe more but shipping and import fees from amazon will be a lot more than 400 dollars
@winged oriole which one do you think is best from the 3 links you sent
Honestly not much a difference between 144 and 240.. could save some money or up the resolution sticking to 144hz
well most of the links I sent are around $300-$330 and I think they come with free shipping
I recently ordered a 240 hrz monitor only because im going from 60hrz to 240 🙂
plus it had a black friday sale on amazon
im going from 60 to 240 as well
@winged oriole the samsung you sent is actually 90 dollars shipping
aww man
the acer one does not ship to israel
I guess just keep looking around a search for reviews on youtube...
yap

im guessing so, no clue
oh its g sync compatible not g sync
i guess thats fine too
oh i actually found the alienware one for 390 in israel
i will probably buy it
thanks for the help @winged oriole
no problem, hope you find a monitor 🙂
144 hz 1080 under 200 thin bezel gsync or free sync look kool
which one is better for gaming at 144hz 1080p. HDMI or Displayport
displayport
DP
is the S2417DG good?
Nice part number... Brand? Specs? Link?
@glossy fractal i have that one if u want tn panel it is good package for gamer otherwise u know just tn
i wanna go for ips
colors are better on ips for sure
1440p at 165hz doesn't seem too bad but there are better beals for similar specs, can't personally say anything on the user experience
I'm a color pleb I don't care about the color space too much if it's affordable and fast
I have a 27" Acer Predator and it looks pretty good although I dont use it much in favour of a 55" Q80 samsung tv....
I use 25" 165hz Sceptre... Cause it was a bargain and it games well enough 😂
my gaming performance saw a bigger improvement from screen size than refresh rate lol although the tv does have a native 120hz
My headaches saw an improvement with a higher refresh rate and freesync
Acer makes really nice ones then the predator is definately smoother than the tv and has gsync
oh and a faster response time the tv is like 4ms and the monitor is 1ms but I dont notice that too much
could be part of the smoothness though
Even LTT gave sceptre the best score out of the budget options
Some ghosting, but decent enough
lol I just now realized you werent the one looking for a monitor
I've never tried a scepter but yeah that acer one cost me like 500
The 165hz 1080p Sceptre is like $200
nice
I won $250 to Amazon from a lan so I bought a budget monitor
I have to have the tv now though myself once you know games can be this big its hard to go back
I can't stand large screens personally, I prefer high pixel density at high frame rates
But to each their own
for me 120hz is enough the first one I tried didnt have a native 120hz so I had to try again. And then I needed one that had 2.1 hdmi so I could actually have 4k at 120hz so you have to do a lot of research
Though a lot of the time I can't hit 165 cause I crank graphics settings to the absolute limit
yeah thats the other thing I like my graphics on ultra so I'm not usually pulling more than 120hz on modern games even on my 2080ti
and 4k on top of that
I am at the top of the AMD offerings with a Radeon VII
So quite a lot less horse power
Ahahaha
It actually broke and doesnt work anymore and forced me to upgrade
🤔 it broke less than a year of being sold and you didn't RMA?
Or did you psysically break it
RIP
is S2417dg good
It's decent specs, but you can find similar for cheaper or with better looking displays
its seems overpriced what price are you getting
my predator was less than that bigger higher res higher refresh rate
I'm looking at dells website though so
But I'm the budget monitor king, I settle minor ghosting for a massive price difference
Or maybe you already have one or found one laying on the side of the road if so then yeah its a good monitor use it... lol
Or if its at the goodwill
yeah tell them you will take that "old office" monitor off their hands
I never say no for cheap or free stuff, I've gotten lots, like my chair I found behind a bank
Is there a monitor with a higher refresh rate than my current AOC 2476WM? right now mine is at 75HZ.
~> that doesn't really help me find suggested items for my budget if i'm being sweetly honest..
144 vs 165 any difference between two ?
whats the budget
Uhh I guess my monitor budget is like... under 200
not much difference that I could tell between 144 vs 165
this is great for right at 200 https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16824236755?Description=asus 24 inch full hd &cm_re=asus_24_inch_full_hd-_-24-236-755-_-Product
but its still 75hz
looking like $250 is about as cheap as I can find one with 144hz
best monitor ever
for 250
euro
in america it is cheaper
Here it is 319€ min
no hdr 😦
I'm looking for an ultrawide 120hz freesync 1440p with hdr1000
that's what i'm looking at, but the 4ms response has ne at a pause
here are some good budget options for 165Hz 1080p
https://www.amazon.com/MSI-Non-Glare-Adjustment-Optix-MAG271R/dp/B07S5GWSZL/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=165hz&qid=1575723053&sr=8-4
@bleak kite that’s better a bad choice if you want it for gaming
its more for productivity, and it’s perfects good for that cause the response time isn’t bad
Is there a strong reason for going 1080p 165hz over 1080p 144hz?
Bragging rights lol. I personally don’t think you’ll notice a huge difference between those two
You really won't notice a huge difference between those 2, but it also won't hurt to have, the recent LTT video on refresh rate and frame rate shows casual players get the biggest benifit from higher refresh rates
And even for the 2070/5700 range of GPUs if you are cranking settings to absolute max they can't event hit 165 most of the time at 1080p in really demanding titles
I'm running dual 1080s and hitting around 90fps at max settings
But in lighter titles like mobas, CSGO , etc. Those easily hit hundreds of frames
A 165hz panel could help with a slight advantage in those kinds of titles
does anybody know where i could a good 144hz monitor from 150$-170$
nvm just scrolled upo
There is that Sceptre I posted for 165hz in that price range
Minor ghosting, but what can you expect from a budget high refresh.
@stiff vine Scepter seems to be the only one I was looking yesterday couldnt find any thing else for less than $240
of course I was looking for 1440p and higher
im looking for a 144hz 1080p display for under $300 that doesnt have much, if any ghosting, and has good color accuracy any suggestions?
i ussually play games like csgo or rdr2
Should fit what you are looking for
thanks man
No :D
For even tighter budgets I recommend the sceptre, but it does have some ghosting
Yea that panel is basically the curved version of the MSI panel I linked
Personally not a fan of curved displays, I like my ultra thins
ppl still want 1080p _?
it's still valid..
get all those frames for cheap
Of course I'm personally spoiled and prefer gaming in at least 1440p if not 2160p
i got a 1070ti and an 8700k but for csgo do you really need 1440p or 4k?
no you dont "need" it and it also depends on how big your monitor is. I play on a 55" screen so my pixels are a lot bigger than on a 24" or smaller screen
but a 1070ti and 8700k should be able to play csgo in 1440p or 4k no problem
1080p is still a desired resolution for ultra high refresh rate Game play on even the meatiest of games
Acer sb220 bi a good monitor? I'm looking to pick up 2 for cheap
@zealous wigeon get yourself a 240 hz 1080p
^
I rock a 1440p 144hz monitor but thats cuz my pc is a tank and can do basically anything. Ive heard amazing things about 240 hz monitors tho
Also rock a 4k hdr monitor
But my pc isnt that good to take advantage of the refresh rate on that predator
1440p144hz>4k60hz=1080p240hz
^100%
However i still wanna play red dead in 4k soooo
You know i always heard of complaints on the fan on the predator x27, and honestly i have yet to hear it.
Like i dont understand. They probably revised it
https://www.amazon.com/Acer-XG270HU-27-inch-FREESYNC-Widescreen/dp/B00VRCLHYS/ i'm planning on getting this, from whoever has the best price at the time i purchase it, it's gonna replace a 27inch curved 144Hz 1080p panel
i only have a GTX 1650 but i'm probably not going to game higher than 1080p 😅 and i plan on a better GPU later
it's also G-SYNC compatible, according to newegg's page, i'm just posting this because i had bookmarked
Honestly im pretty sure they dont care ngl
165Hz is the Budget 240Hz 😉
Hello guys, i could use some advice. I’m planning on upgrading my 1080p 144hz samsung LC24FG73 to a 1440p 144hz monitor soon, but I don’t know any affordable ones that i trust. Oh and a good response time is an absolute must
I don't think you'll find a low response time 1440p 144hz for anything less than $380 maybe with a sale perhaps
what's affordable and how low are you looking your response time to be? I mean this one's renewed yet it's 5ms and $300
is a lower hz but a 1ms response ok to use for gaming ?
honestly anything under 5ms is fine unless you're doing super competitive CS:GO where it actually matters, but if you're doing first person shooters you practically need at least 120hz or higher because the improvement is phenomenal
if you want a noticeable difference and actually want to get better at a competitive game, go from 60Hz to 144Hz. You'll regret buying a 1ms 60Hz over high refresh rate, guaranteed
Linus Tech Tips even did a video about how High Refresh can affect your performance in gaming , it was more gains for the more casual gamers than the pros
Aoc C24G1 144hz Curved VA panel is the 1080p king for my opinion. I was using 60hz ips LG display after that getting Aoc C24G1 i get really mad. Because 60 to 144hz is amazing upgrade for my eyes. Everyone should get at least 144hz display. 👌 👌 👌
when I had to RMA my 165Hz panel cause a backlight failed I had use my 75Hz for 2 weeks... I was not happy
@rugged grove around 400-450 would work
refurbished Acer predator 27" 240hz and gsync 279.99 from amazon
^I hear a quite of bit of bad reviews on the product is it worth it?
and I think samsung and Benq both have new ones for 299.99
I have a predator albeit a much more expensive one and I like it
cant say about that specific one though
Have that exact one, ask me anything
For that CPU and GPU combo you're fine, I average 80 fps on AAA games at 1440p medium/high with a 2060 non super and an old kaby lake i5
@rugged grove That's great that you own it. I have many questions.
1- Does HDR on it work well?
2- Did you have dead pixels
3- Does monitor do ghosting
4- What are the negatives of it?
I dont own one but I will sat that Samsung has been really good in my experience for replacing panels that have dead pixels. In one case I smacked into my tv with the vacuum cleaner handle even after it was out of warranty and they still replaced the panel for me free of charge
@rugged grove When you're on, can you DM me answers please? Thanks.
I am getting this monitor as my main:
Dell AW3418DW 34.1" 3440x1440 120 Hz Monitor
And this one as a side screen:
Dell U2717D 27.0" 2560x1440 60 Hz Monitor
What do you guys think?
What will you use this two for?
AW3418DW - Gaming and main monitor for work as well
U2717D - Discord, youtube, twitch, OBS
it would bother me that they arent the same size but thats really personal preference. I would try to find a closer size with lower specs for the discord youtube monitor
- HDR works great but it should be noted it's either 144hz or full res HDR
- Zero dead pixels, not so much as a blemish
- I dunno what you mean by "do ghosting" but I haven't experienced anything like that
- Only negative was some backlight flicker but it turned out to be Spotify causing it with it's hardware acceleration setting. Hardware wise, the stand is a little wobbly but it's forgiveable due to the sheer size, it doesn't feel flimsy at all and is really articulated! @astral gale
@rugged grove whats the max Hz in HDR?
Ok thanks. Buying it.
Like 60? I dunno just not high refresh lol haven't exactly checked other than watched a few movies and those are locked at 24?
@zealous wigeon Oh, that's the think, the 27 Inch will be the same horizontal sinze as the 34 Ultrawide
yeah I actually was thinking that after I typed it
@rugged grove yeah I was thinking for gaming in HDR which I like in some games
That would bother me quite a lot as well, in fact I would love to get kind of some monitor aesthetic
Haven't done hdr in games tbh. 2060 isn't great for 1440p lol
I though about the new 34 and 27 LG Ultragear
but as I game on a 55" TV with a 27" 4k 240hz Acer Predator sitting next to me I may not be the best person to ask about monitors LOL
4k 240 hz ???....
Woah what
Dude a 144hz 4k is already like $900
non-existing tech has been founded in this person's house
It was only like $700 when I got it
I also though about geting 27 240HZ 1440p monitor for some FPS games, since Ultrawide don't give you a lot of value in most of the FPS games, but higher frequency does
And are you sure you can do 1440p 240hz? Non native high res isn't common
But I don't know if I would botter doing the switch all the time
XB272 27" FHD
lol its not 4k I thought it was
too be fair I did say I dont use it
1080p in 240hz only
tv looks much better
What do you play?
Warthunder, Battlefield 5, Starcraft 2, WoW, VR games, and a bunch of others not as often when they come out like that star wars assassins creed clone and the outer worlds
obviously the monitor doesnt matter for VR
supposedly my TV can do gsync but I havent figured out how to do it....
its not in my nvidia control panel
How far away do you sit from the TV?
about 4 feet
I never really liked using TV to play keyboard games, I usually go for TV for games like The Wither 3
for me the screen real estate helps with first person/first plane shooters
My last build
in warthunder I can see the pixels that make up your plane sooner farther away than on a smaller monitor 😉
you know I havent and I have thought about it
arent not all games optimized for it so it can look stretched?
I have this build before the one I just posted, but the right monitor was barely used when not playing on eyefinity
@zealous wigeon most of then are nowdays... It's hard to find one that won't work well on Ultrawide
thats good because that was one of the major reasons I held back when they first came out
the eyefinity setup is awesome
I have been really happy with the tv though it does have native 120hz, great colors, high brightness, and a hdmi 2.1 port <-- most important thing about tv gaming
What TV is it?
Q80 samsung 2019 55"
