umm, any other 1440p 240hz monitor
they are relatively new, but they arent 700
i think your paying the samsung tax on those

prob, but alot of gsync/compatible are expensive
i tried x34p acer predator and lg 850 gsync one those 2 over 700 and youtube looked very bad movements

27 yea over priced 32 is about there though
sage trail
also, i assume you have the 2080 super required to drive this display?

atleast with the other 2 older models everything ran nicely
eh i dropped down in most games because i wanna upgrade to 3080ti or 3090 from 1080ti
destiny 2 runs max 5120x1440 easily
sage trail
ok, so you plan to upgrade your gpu as well
good
personally, if your gonna go all out, the g9 sounds like a good investment
brave cipher
of course, not gonna spend the major money for 2080ti when price to performance is so minumal
sage trail
if you get like a 5+ year warrenty on the g9, get it
otherwise, i think you should avoid it, because you do not want something this expensive failing after only 3 years of use
brave cipher
not sure dont see under preorder on other sites, the other ones i think were not that high, samsung typically has lower warranties
could be different on these dunno
sage trail
if i was looking to dump 1700 on a monitor, i would want like a 5 year warrenty on the thing

so when the time comes, see what the monitor comes with, and see how much it costs to extend it

yea there is no listing of warranty on any site right now, even samsung

if you are using a processor with integrated graphics and no video card, then plug the cable into the motherboard
if you have a video card, plug into the video card

tardy charm
Yeah

Use that one then?
graceful tree
and plug hdmi in there
maiden wedge
Yank em
tardy charm
Ok
graceful tree
if you were plugging hdmi into motherboard that's why you got no signal
motherboard port uses integrated graphics
and even if your processor has integrated graphics the bios usually disables it automatically if a video card is detected
maiden wedge
Imagine having a gpu and running on integrated the whole time
deep fern
i would do that

as for ryzen, only the ones labelled with "G" have integrated graphics
yeah that's exactly why most bios disable integrated graphics when gpu is found @maiden wedge

I like the mag272cqr as a good 1440p 144hz monitor, that's 400$, so that's usually the baseline for me in terms of price

If I can get a 32" Freesync 75Hz IPS 1440p for $200, is that good in spite of the 75 Hz?

If you only have 200$ to spend, a good 1080p 144hz monitor can be good
It's all personal opinion, but my opinion is once you go 144hz you can't go back :p
Also, it's harder to run 1440p than it is 1080p

"$300 max, if it's only like $10 or $20 dollars above that, it might be okay
whatever hertz you think is best i guess
24in curved or not curved is OK
27in curved or not curved is OK
32inc must be curved cuz big
1080p unless you think 1440p is better? i have no idea
idk what HDR is but if it's good and i can use it that'd be cool i guess
at least Display Port 1.2 and an HDMI slot, preferrably 2 hdmi slots, but it's not a big deal if it only has one
important that it's got good quality picture not blurry text/eye care stuff is nice
Curved would be ideal i think but it's okay if not, I'd rather not fixate and narrow myself"
solemn sapphire
HDR is pricey. 1080p vs 1440p depends on if your rig can handle it. Same with refresh rate
pseudo sparrow
1080 is my recommendation, 120 hz imo
Working with those
Wait do hdr tns exist @solemn sapphire
Or is that redundant
solemn sapphire
They do exist but they won't be great. You can get a 1080p ips 144hz display in that budget, I wouldn't go TN. But what are your specs?
pseudo sparrow
She has 1060 gtx
I'm not certain on the processor but it's at most 6th gen processor

solemn sapphire
Yeah, 1080. She probably won't be able to fully utilize a 144hz display, but if she has the budget, her next rig may be able to
pseudo sparrow
Yeah that's what I was thinking was because of scalability but if it doesn't matter then nbd
solemn sapphire
Otherwise you could get a 1080p 60hz ips and save money. But then if she gets a nice rig a few years down the road she'll want to updgrade

I personally prefer the color over the slightly better response times of most TN displays.

Is overclocking a 144 hz display safe to do, so it performs at 144 hz?
Are there 4k monitors that don't require overclocking?
Something I myself am in the market for, I know I mentioned the QHD one, but I really do want 4k for scalability LOL

You don't need to OC a 4k display. There are 144hz versions (they will cost you).

I'd like to have a 4k 144 hz that doesn't require it, since that can damage the hardware
I understand it would cost me an arm and a leg

I honestly wouldn't get a 4k display myself. Like QHD is easier to handle and Uhd isn't that much better. But if you want it and have the money and the rig... go for it

yeah kinda. I personally dont have issue with bigger screens on 1080p but 1440p monitors do look better especially on larger screens. if you're gaming id go for at least 144hz so if you cant afford 1440p at 144 hz, go with a 1080 if it doesnt bother you
if you get a 60hz, the most you can actually see on screen is 60fps. 144, you can get up to 144fps depending on what your gpu can output for the game at whatever settings

Does that include the bezels??(I'm assuming not)
nova estuary
Yeah It Comes with it
Im on the Asus Site Looking at it now
Hehe It has Built In Crosshairs for When I play Modern Warfare
visual pilot
I'm pretty sure the measurement is just screen
most monitors have built in crosshairs
nova estuary
Yeah. I have a 32inch toshiba Regza TV right now and with the Bezels its more like 27 viewable
Only thing It doesnt have is AMD Freesync but with that kind of Refresh Rate I dont think I would have to worry about it
ASUS Site says 75hz but Amazon says 144hz
NM Im Wrong
Dammit
@patent lagoon Only issue with the Westinghouse is the Sale ends in 3 days and Im waiting for my federal Tax Return still
And Why so Many 24 inch screens. I need 27 to 32
Im a Graphic Designer and Adobe Software Likes 120hz or higher since they released the 2020 version. 2019 was fine with 60hz

Thinking about an IPS monitor. Still deciding between 1080 and 1440. Any thoughts from current users or converters?
visual pilot
IPS monitors are great, and VA monitors are good, VA can usually be found for cheaper if IPS doesn't fit in your budget
Since you're aiming for a 5700xt, 1080p and 1440p are both viable in terms of your compute power
1440p is harder to run, but those who do, don't regret it much like @languid badge iirc
jolly portal
I think I saw somewhere about not all games supporting 1440p, which is fine. Just curious if 1080p on a 1440p is possible? If so would it create some sort of problem?
visual pilot
Well 1080p in games can be displayed on a 1440p monitor, just stretched usually
Also most modern games support 1440p and 4k, it's older games that have issues
jolly portal
Ooo so I could just adjust the resolution so it is not stretched? Even though it does not take full advantage of the monitor.. if this is the way gaming is going then why not get a 1440
visual pilot
Like you can't switch the pixel count of your monitor from 1440p to 1080p, but the images displayed could be stretched
1440p is said to be ideal for gaming, not as hard to run as 4k, looks great, and 144hz+ panels are becoming more affordable
jolly portal
OOic. so the 1440p represents the pixel count of the monitor.
languid badge
?
languid badge
I personally like higher refesh and high refresh 1080p is what I could afford
visual pilot
Well normal 1440p and 1080p
@languid badge they got a 5700xt so I feel like it's worth 1440p 144hz
It's not like they can't get high frame rates in 1440p
jolly portal
Trying to find the right balance based on the PC build I am thinking of.
visual pilot
Oh yea and what's the budget for the monitor?
languid badge
I play most games on ultra and the demanding titles rarely ever hit 144FPS at 1080p on ultra settings
like I'm playign Ark on Ultra, only getting like 90 FPS max
nova estuary
The Monitor I am going to be getting is 32 inch and 144hz 1080p
jolly portal
hmm well things look to be $300-$600 so like $450 ideal?
visual pilot
I remember seeing benchmarks with ~100fps or higher on 5700xt and 1440p
On like division 2
Ark ofc is not optimised
languid badge
this at 90FPS is perfectly fine too me, it's pretty, and a decent frame rate 😄
visual pilot
400-500$ is all you need for a good 1440p monitor
nova estuary
The One Im getting at 1080p is under 200
visual pilot
~200$ is what you would expect for 1080p 144hz
languid badge
^ about the cost of my 1080p 165Hz
visual pilot
Wait cad or usd
nova estuary
Hey Its better than not having a High Refresh Rate that Works With Adobe Creative Cloud very well
USD
visual pilot
Alexander
nova estuary
Oh Sorry
visual pilot
Because your list was in cad
jolly portal
CAD
visual pilot
I'll take a look at cad prices, but usually good 1440p monitors are Mag272cqr and Fi27q
jolly portal
I am seeing upwards of 450-600 for the monitors that match my preferences.
visual pilot
Usually 400 usd and 500 usd
jolly portal
Ahh ic.
I was on pcpartpicker and forgot to convert to CAD. I saw some builds I really liked then had my dreams crushed after seeing the conversion rate lol
visual pilot
Nearly forgot about vg27aq
languid badge
it will use your local vendors
visual pilot
jolly portal
Yeah I switched it. Is there a way to perma switch it?
jolly portal
oo that is nice. I like the larger size but dayum I never knew monitors could be so expensive.
languid badge
NGL a lot of games I play either don't get very high FPS on ultra settings or aren't really the kind of games that benifit from high FPS XD
visual pilot
Fi27q out of stock
Yea true
@jolly portal are you planning on playing more fps games or more scenic rpg games
jolly portal
I was thinking of a better monitor to try and "future proof"
I like games in general
Little bit of this little bit of that.
visual pilot
Because it's definally worth 1440p for the looks if you like exploring game worlds
But for competitive fps games where you want to squeeze out every frame you can get, it ain't too great
jolly portal
The larger monitor could also double up as a netflix thing too so it is an investment I am willing to make
Not a competitive gamer.
At least not yet lol
visual pilot
Anyways out of those 2 I'd go vg27aq for the IPS panel
I'd say a 1440p 165hz monitor should future proof you for quite a few years
languid badge
there is kinda a thing where you have to pick 2 out of 3 things for your games: Resolution, FPS, and Graphical Quality
you can have any 2 but not all 3
usually
jolly portal
I am okay with resolution and graphical quality based on what I plan to do
languid badge
I opt for FPS and Quality and leave behind the resolution 🙂
jolly portal
FPS mainly to do with gaming? What about for watching movies?
Netflix or youtube etcetc
visual pilot
Movies are pre recorded at like 30fps so doesn't really matter
jolly portal
Ooo
languid badge
for watching Movies movies are never actually in 1440p, it's either 1080p or 4K usually
languid badge
but really, lets be honest, you can enjoy a movie in 1080p jsut fine, it's a passive experience at a low frame rate
visual pilot
I mean movies were made for tvs in mind yaknow, 30fps 1080p stretched to like 50in
languid badge
there is a huge difference between passively watching something and playing a game and looking for spesific things, like a certain Dino in the distance in ark
visual pilot
Yea
Games are where you can really see the difference and where higher resolutions really shine
languid badge
movies put what they want you to see in shot spesifically so you can see them, games you are actively looking for things to see
visual pilot
All the background details
All the lighting
Etc
Yea movies you're just passively watching
Games are more interesting, and you'll notice more of the details as you're looking
More engaging
languid badge
it's why i'm content to even use my phone and switch as a movie screen
jolly portal
Whoa so much new found knowledge thank you!
languid badge
very few movies will ask you to look way into the distance in a shot, even then it's cinematic, they can just show you what's in the distance with a jump cut or pan
not many movies do the whole first person/found footage where a bigger screen would be benificial
jolly portal
I like the thought of 1440p offering more real estate on the screen for multi tasking
Does that make sense?
languid badge
well there is always the option for multimonitor in that case
jolly portal
Not in need of multi monitors yet. I do have this super old macbook pro (mid2010) I can always use as a second set up to google stuff or discord.
languid badge
I game full screen on a high quality monitor then on the side I have things like discord on a much lower quality monitor
visual pilot
So many people have second monitors dedicated to discord
languid badge
or put youtube vids on one and discord on the other
visual pilot
I don't really see a need personally
jolly portal
One of the main reasons for wanting to build a PC is because this laptop is soooo old lol.
visual pilot
Lol
jolly portal
I updated the HDD to SSD and threw in some more ram. That was about all I could do. Was wanting to up the GPU but that is a nono 😦
visual pilot
Oh hey you leveled up you can send links now
jolly portal
Sorry I am getting off topic here.
languid badge
well yea.. and it's a mac book, meaning it automatically has 50% less performance than similar cost machines of the time
jolly portal
Oh sweet
languid badge
jolly portal
I was considering that route but I figured why not just build a gaming PC and keep this laptop as a daily driver for basic tasks.
visual pilot
Oh yea forgot to mention, but for windows 10, you can get a key from eBay for like 3$, and they work 90% of the time
Linux is free if you're into that
jolly portal
Save me about $100 there
visual pilot
I got 2 keys a while back, both works. Many people here got keys from eBay that worked
jolly portal
Do not know much about Linux. Growing up it always appeared to be shamed but that is because I and most likely a lot of people do not know much about OS?
Only concern is will all games new and old run on Linux?
visual pilot
Heh I don't know too much about Linux but I assume @versed bridge would be glad to explain. There are multiple distros (versions)
jolly portal
Righto. Maybe I can ask in the OS channel as to not stray too far off topic.
visual pilot
It's a group of different distros and OS
versed bridge
What am I doing?
jolly portal
Linux for a gaming PC
visual pilot
All I know is that it gives the user more control, compatibility is a bit off, but still decent
versed bridge
Compatibility with games is still a bit rough. It depends on what games you want to play
visual pilot
Steam does a lot of the work for game compatibilities
There's also the windows vm in Linux route but that's complicated
versed bridge
Vm is less than ideal
visual pilot
I don't really know what's compatible and what isnt
jolly portal
So if not the most compatible for gaming. Linux is good for people who really like to tinker with software?
versed bridge
For tinkering, it is wonderful
jolly portal
Icic. Still very new to all of this. Trying to get my head wrapped around hardware. I suppose software would be the next level.
versed bridge
Yeah, if you want to learn computers, I would recommend Linux
visual pilot
Dual boot is an option, Idrk how to set it up but
versed bridge
Yeah. One thing that you can do is install both Linux and windows, then run windows for games and Linux for other stuff
That's what I do
Basically you just separate your harddrives/ssds into to bits, one for windows and one for LInux
Then every time you turn on your coputer, you can pick whether you want to run Linux or Windows right then
jolly portal
Cool. So separating means dedicating a drive to either linux of windows?
If I do get into learning more about software then I will probably use my NVME for windows gaming and grab a second SDD for linux
versed bridge
No, you can have different parts of the same drive
jolly portal
Ooo IC
versed bridge
I have a one terabyte SSD, with 700GB for linux and 300GB for windows
jolly portal
So a NVME for windows and linux and use a larger SSD for game storage.
versed bridge
Or HDD for games honestly
jolly portal
Cheaper?
versed bridge
Yeah
jolly portal
Only a little bit slower for data transfer?
versed bridge
Yeah, slower
jolly portal
Which would be totally fine as I do not need insane speeds. I budgeted for a 1TB NVME as my main to avoid that issue.
versed bridge
Cool
visual pilot
Load times don't matter to much on SSD vs HDD unless the load time is very long otherwise, or you load often
While 1tb is quite a bit of spaces, it's bad practice to fill a SSD up to the brim
versed bridge
If you're just going to be tinkering on Linux and not gaming, you just need about 100GB or so of storage for it
jolly portal
What is a good percentage to fill it up too then? 70%?
versed bridge
Somewhere around there
jolly portal
Good to know Bob thanks! Any recommendations on what I can learn to tinker on? Or will google show me my options.
versed bridge
Depends on what you want to tinker with mostly
jolly portal
Makes sense. Okay then I will look into it further when the time comes. Thanks for the introduction into the world of Linux Bob! Also thanks again Mr1111 for the help.
versed bridge

copper scarab
Honestly can't go wrong with ubuntu

Ubuntu is a good starter
copper scarab
Or just use vmware workstation or virtualbox to test drive various linux distros

for me my tinkering is mostly palying with Java programing and CPUs have gotten so fast a lot of the old memes about java being "slow" aren't as realivant any more
visual pilot
You're welcome

Eh, backend stuff is still reliant on C++
versed bridge
Java is decent, but I would recommend python if you want to learn programming
copper scarab
/r/relevant xkcd https://xkcd.com/353/
visual pilot
As someone that only learned java I would've liked to just learn Python
languid badge
it's just personal preference I grewup with Java programming
jolly portal
I have seen the name Python pop up more and more here and there.
copper scarab
Learn java for object oriented programming, C/C++ for memory management/pointers and stuff, Python just to grow an interest in coding without burning out.
versed bridge
Python is really fun

languid badge
Java is good if you learn it properly... piss poor if someone teaches it in the method of "create an entire class inside an argument for a input"
copper scarab
If brain hurt is what you want - look into HDL's like ABEL or Verilog.
versed bridge
Java is okay
visual pilot
I'm actually bad at programing
copper scarab
Verilog isn't too bad tbh
visual pilot
But idrc
versed bridge
It's just not really that useful anymore
visual pilot
I can do stuff
versed bridge
I like verilog 🙂
visual pilot
Java just works
versed bridge
Except when it doesn't
visual pilot
It's something you know works, not efficiently, not easily, not quickly, but works
Well that's with all code
versed bridge
yeah
I usually go python if I want flexibility and ease of design, and c++ if I want speed
visual pilot
It's like the most mediocre language
languid badge
versed bridge
That said c++ is a really hard language to write
Once you really understand c or c++ though, you will have a super solid understanding of computers
visual pilot
I gotta git gud
versed bridge
You wanna git gud, use git 🙂

versed bridge
Or lab
I actually don't use gitlab though
Kinda ironic for someone who is as big a Linux freak as I am but oh well

I don't use git, but I do backup different versions of my code locally
not the ideal solution, but better than nothing

Just use git

So I was having this issue in the past but it appeared to have gone away by changing my Chrome theme (???). Sometimes, my monitor just goes black. It's a fade to black. The situation before the weird theme fix:
Monitor went black for a second or two when clicking links that went to a different page on Chrome.
The situation now:
Playing a video full screen makes it fade to black, but only one portion of the video.
I start the video in non-fullscreen and it works fine. I full screen and my monitor blanks out. After a bit, the picture comes back. I can make it black out again by going back to that part of the video (pressed the left arrow key).
It's really weird because it's a nice fade to black, almost as if it were intentional.
In case it matters, yes my GPU (1660S) and my monitor (ASUS VG245) support HDCP.
The VG245 is running at 75Hz.
And the issue only happens with this monitor. My other ASUS one doesn't do it, neither does my CRT.
It is connected through an HDMI cable that I am pretty sure is HDMI1.4 (it says HDMI with Ethernet), and is directly plugged into my GPU.
Oh peck, it just happened on Chrome again..
It happens on Firefox when going in/out of fullscreen on videos.

Question... what's best, the samsung odyssey g7 or alienware AW3420DW ?
charred rain
@young isle samsung odyssey g7...
but im curious- what specs do you have that meet 240hz on 2k?
also alienware sucks
too overpriced
young isle
am about to get a either a 10900k or ryzen 9 3950x with 2080 super or gonna wait for the new stuff to get released... not sure yet
charred rain
hm
@young isle for what games?
I think I can reccomend a better one..
also I would wait- 30- series nvidia is gonna be announced in a couple months, then released shortly after- so rtx 20- series price will go down
young isle
@charred rain yeh i was gonna wait for them to release the new stuff. I'm interested to hear your recommendation...
young isle
Cod, battlefield, gta, star wars, big AAA games... the good stuff
charred rain
hm
you're spending a lot on things that shouldn't be super expensive
take the mobo in the intel build for example
costs more than your gpu
rule of thumb: mobo shouldn't be more than your cpu
im assuming your budget is about 3000$? @young isle
allow me to make you a better specced build for the price
young isle
go for it
and yeh for the price
and I was looking for a motherboard with a 10Gig ethernet port...
@charred rain
charred rain
woah
oh
u mean 10 gigabit?
do you get 10 gigabit internet? @young isle
that's impressively overpowered
charred rain
geez isn't it like 700$ a month for 10 gigabit internet?
young isle
Yeh.....
young isle
Honestly, just tryna allow myself to have to most pathways to upgrade as poss...
charred rain
true
I can't think of a scenario though where a home pc for GAMING would need more than a gigabit ethernet
even a gigabit is a lot
that'll download most aaa titles within 2 minutes
young isle
true true, was thinking of downgrading for the reasons you just said...
I do work from home atm as well too...
charred rain
yeah
serious suggestion: you should probably downgrade to regular gigabit and save yourself a lot of money lol
both on this pc AND your internet bill
young isle
I'm going ot
to*
Honestly just want something with top spec and look beautiful
@charred rain
charred rain
it's a rlly beautiful build lmao
it'll look gr8
tons of rgb
top of the line parts
it'll run any game no sweat
young isle
I'd say I'm a slight noob when it comes to pc building... but what's the difference between our builds? It's not a criticism, I'm genuinely interested!
charred rain
no problem! gimme sec, let me pull them up side by side
just to clarify, im comparing mine to your intel build
ok
- I'm using a newer aio that I believe has better performance, also half the price
- cheaper mobo that doesn't have 10 gigabit internet
bc u said you planned to downgrade
- I'm using 32 gb of 3600 mHz ram (faster) compared to you using 16 gb of 3200 mHz ram (fast but not as fast as 3600 mHz)
so that bumps it up abt 100-125
you went with the rtx 2080 super, whereas I went for the best gaming card in the world as of right now- the rtx 2080 ti
price difference is about 500 euros
young isle
nice flex... 😆
charred rain
but you get more performance out of the ti
lol
for storage-
you went 300 euros for an overpriced 1 tb ssd
so I got that same ssd but from intel instead of samsung, and threw in a 2 tb hard drive for your games library
saves about 150 and you get an extra 2 tbs
young isle
i thought a hard rives load much slower?
charred rain
they do, but you haven't lost anything
bc you still have a 1 tb nvme ssd in both builds
also games tend to be 70-100 gbs of storage, so if you only have 1 tb, ur gonna run out fast
deep fern
they are still ok as long as you have a ssd as a boot drive
young isle
i see
charred rain
check the list is #cases-psu-and-cooling
yea and for case, I spent a bit more than you, but this one has better airflow and comes with 4 case fans, rgb
also almost everything is rgb so it's gonna look gr8- ram, mobo, aio, gpu, case, case fans
all in all, it's a great op build
young isle
Looks sweet as m8 ngl
charred rain
it is
so for the monitor-
2k won't justify it
ofc, for some games, you may have to turn it down to 2k
4k at 144 hz will do it justice
young isle
Yeh, for the monitor the idea was 240hz with as high res as poss
charred rain
yep
but tbh, in my opinion and experience, once you get past 120 hz, you either need to see them side by side or have a rlly rlly good eye to tell the difference
after 120hz, it's all about the resolution
young isle
I guess
charred rain
a lot of ppl say that 2k and 4k look the same, but 4k actually looks crazy better
young isle
Yeh i agree with you on that, i upgraded my tv to 4K a couple of years back and the difference was mental!
charred rain
especially on tvs, because they're so much bigger
young isle
Yeh!!
charred rain
monitors are more subtle, but it's the quality of life changes that make it a more pleasant experience
do you have all the peripherals you need?
young isle
I know what I'm gonna get in terms of new keyboard & mouse
charred rain
cool! what's the plan?
young isle
