granite field Sep 7, 2020, 2:51 AM

#

How's the actual response time hmm
@slate hamlet I read through a toms hardware test of it and it was consistently in the top end of tested monitors in terms of responsiveness and latency. The ones that beat it out were the 280hz Asus monitors, but not by much.

It didn't perform as well as IPS or va panels in terms of blacks, dimmer zones, or contrast, but the did mention that the color was pretty spot on once calibrated

#

Oh and those Asus monitors are 1080p

#

Also I can't stress this enough, the included stand sucks

slate hamlet Sep 7, 2020, 2:58 AM

#

wait is it a VA panel

#

cuz I don't really care about IPS

#

I'm very interested in this monitor now

#

ah it's TN

#

hmmm

slate hamlet Sep 7, 2020, 3:18 AM

#

I'm wondering if I want the response time more than the brightness and colors...

sage trail Sep 7, 2020, 3:24 AM

#

tbh, its 2020, all three of those technologies have been refined for decades now

#

they all gonna look just fine for gaming

#

also dont even worry about the response time

#

its all just marketing bs

#

for a 144hz panel, a pixel can take up to 7ms to change from one color to another

#

good luck finding a 144hz monitor thats advertised with more than 4ms

slate hamlet Sep 7, 2020, 3:36 AM

#

the response time definitely matters

#

for perceived motion blur

sage trail Sep 7, 2020, 3:37 AM

#

that doesnt mean you should worry about it

#

there is no response time standard, the only way to know the response time of a panel is to either see if someone has tested the panel themselves, or if you test the panel yourself

#

the advertised numbers are usually bs marketing to get stupid gamers to pay 100 dollars more

#

dont fall for their traps

slate hamlet Sep 7, 2020, 3:39 AM

#

well that's for sure

#

mine is only 1ms if it's too frickin dark

sage trail Sep 7, 2020, 3:39 AM

#

honestly, the best way to monitor hunt is to slap the model number into youtube and watch some vids lol

#

they tell you everything u need to know

slate hamlet Sep 7, 2020, 3:40 AM

#

yeah I'm wondering if that isn't great either though because they say every monitor is wonderful

sage trail Sep 7, 2020, 3:41 AM

#

well, usually i can glean relevant info from a vid and just ignore the conclusion

#

like, "oh, i cant run 240hz and HDR10 at the same time, good to know"

#

the small things they dont tell you

slate hamlet Sep 7, 2020, 3:45 AM

#

idk if I even want 240hz

#

I just want the absolute least possible amount of motion blur, but without having to sacrifice half the brightness

sage trail Sep 7, 2020, 3:47 AM

#

well, a 240hz panel will be more prone to blur when running at 240hz

#

as the pixels only have 4ms to change

#

which means the panels have to be better binned

#

a modern 144hz TN panel will not have motion blur

#

and if it does its defective and a bad bin

slate hamlet Sep 7, 2020, 3:51 AM

#

it does if it's not actually running at 1ms how about that

#

idk what the "fast" setting on my monitor is, but there's definitely some slight motion blur to it

sage trail Sep 7, 2020, 3:52 AM

#

i mean, looking at the rgb colorspace, a pixel switching from #FFFFFF to #FFFFFE would take like a fraction of a millisecond

#

the longest a pixel will take to switch is going from 00000 to FFFFFF

#

and as long as thats under 7ms on a 144hz panel

#

there will be no blur

slate hamlet Sep 7, 2020, 3:54 AM

#

hmm

sage trail Sep 7, 2020, 3:55 AM

#

the issue is finding out how long it takes for that to happen on a given monitor, as the marketing material doesnt really say

#

but, TN is known to have the fastest response times of the bunch, so if you are concerned about it, get a TN panel

slate hamlet Sep 7, 2020, 3:59 AM

#

hmm true

#

honestly my VA monitor only looks very slightly better than my old TN

sage trail Sep 7, 2020, 4:01 AM

#

my VA does look better, but my old TN is from 2006

#

so thats not a really fair comparison

#

in a fair fight with a TN from 2020, you would be hard pressed to find a difference

slate hamlet Sep 7, 2020, 4:03 AM

#

I actually don't know exactly how old my TN is but it's actually quite bright as far as TNs go

#

like side by side, the VA basically is only a teeny bit brighter and with slightly better contrast

sage trail Sep 7, 2020, 4:15 AM

#

well, a modern TN can only be the same or better than the one you have now

#

ya know?

granite field Sep 7, 2020, 4:17 AM

#

for reference the TH article stated that there was basically no perceived motion blur with the HP Omen monitor

#

running at 240hz

sage trail Sep 7, 2020, 4:18 AM

#

hot

slate hamlet Sep 7, 2020, 4:28 AM

#

ok definitely interested then

#

if I get that 3070

granite field Sep 7, 2020, 5:56 AM

#

Yeah not much point if you don't have the gpu for it lol

#

Which imo doesn't really exist yet

#

But seems like a good chance the 3000 series can do it

#

But honestly csgo and overwatch are like all you need it for and you run those games on low gfx anyways

maiden wedge Sep 7, 2020, 9:56 AM

#

Is a 4ms response time (actual tested, not advertised) on an IPS good for fps games

#

On 144hz

#

Afraid to get a TN for fear of the pictur quality but am seeing that IPS never really truly get 1ms

#

So hopefully the difference is hard to notice

kindred moss Sep 7, 2020, 10:26 AM

#

Screen tearing is actually a good sign of low input lag from GPU outputting to the monitor. It can always be mitigated by having more HZ on your monitor. Any type of sync will always have input lag

sage trail Sep 7, 2020, 3:28 PM

#

or vsync, freesync, and gsync can be used to mitigate it

#

AOC CQ27G2 27" Super Curved Frameless Gaming Monitor QHD 2K, 1500r vs AOC 27G2 27" Frameless Gaming IPS Monitor, FHD 1080P, 1ms 144Hz, $55 difference what are your guys thoughts about these two panels

granite field Sep 7, 2020, 4:59 PM

#

I don't like curved monitors

#

Although if I were going for a 3 monitor sim setup I would probably go with curved

neat pilot Sep 7, 2020, 5:01 PM

#

Going with a single montior and won't be buying another for a while but I think I be getting a aoc. I still need to update my gpu so still trying to decide on to get 1080 or 1440p monitor

granite field Sep 7, 2020, 5:01 PM

#

At 27" I would recommend 2k

#

1440p

#

IDK what video card you currently have, but if you're planning on upgrading you might as well get a monitor that can take advantage

neat pilot Sep 7, 2020, 5:03 PM

#

Was looking at the ViewSonic VX2758-2KP-MHD 27 Inch Frameless WQHD 1440p 144hz for 300 which would about $ 100 over 1080p but only 40 more than the aoc panel

#

I currently have a hd6970 gpu running on a acer 1680x1050 monitor only two things old about my current system everything else has been updated

granite field Sep 7, 2020, 5:05 PM

#

Well, that gpu will certainly struggle to give you decent fps at 1440p, although you're not gonna get great fps on 1080p either.

#

I would still recommend a 1440p panel, you can always reduce settings or resolution in games, but having all that desktop space is really nice.

neat pilot Sep 7, 2020, 5:10 PM

#

Yeah looking at rx 5700 or maybe try and wait for a rxt 3070

granite field Sep 7, 2020, 5:11 PM

#

Definitely wait

#

I have a 5700xt and it runs QHD fine

#

But the new 3070 should effectively double the performance

neat pilot Sep 7, 2020, 5:17 PM

#

Yeah i might my cpu is a 2600 at 3.8ghz on a 700w psu so not sure if the 3070 will get bottleneck Ed or not but I'm going to get a newer gpu and was thinking about a panel that can handle it

twin oak Sep 7, 2020, 5:17 PM

#

we never know if there is gonna be bottleneck till tests come out

#

if you want a panel that can handle a 5700xt or a 3070 a 144hz monitor should be fine

granite field Sep 7, 2020, 5:32 PM

#

I wouldn't worry about bottlenecking too much especially at 1440p.

#

At 1080p there might be like a 10% difference between a 2600 and a new i9, but that starts to shrink as you go up in resolution.

#

The important thing to note is, a 3070 with a 2600 will still beat a 5700xt with an i9 in gaming at probably either resolution.

#

It's a good enough cpu to get you well over 144 fps in most titles, so you need a gpu that can also get you 144fps, and might as well get one that can do 144fps at max/ultra settings

neat pilot Sep 7, 2020, 6:50 PM

#

Yeah was looking for 144hz monitor 1ms from 200 to 300 but I know my current 22inch acer 1050 monitor w only vga connection won't be fun with a new system lol

i dont yet im actually building my first pc aswell, i heard that nivida just anouced some really good new stuff so ill probably be getting the lowest priced one of those

patent lagoon Sep 9, 2020, 2:29 AM

#

hmm okok

#

yeah the lowest priced probably couldnt handle 4k

exotic latch Sep 9, 2020, 2:30 AM

#

the rtx 3080 i think

patent lagoon Sep 9, 2020, 2:30 AM

#

ohoh you mean of those

#

i thought you meant the entire lineup lmao

#

uhh

#

ya but a 4k monitor with those specs is above $500 easily

exotic latch Sep 9, 2020, 2:31 AM

#

that one is like around 500$ if i remember (the RTX 3080)

#

it can just be 1440p

#

thats good enougf

patent lagoon Sep 9, 2020, 2:32 AM

#

nah the 3070 is gonna be $500

exotic latch Sep 9, 2020, 2:32 AM

#

this is the 4k you'd want with the 144hz

exotic latch Sep 9, 2020, 2:39 AM

#

so you think the difference etween 4k and 1440p is insignifigant?

#

thank you for those reccomendations, ill probably purchase the first one

#

actaully i might just go fo the 4k since movies and anime isnt going to benifit from a 144 refresh anyway

#

and most of the gaming i plan to do will be with a valve index

#

so actaully the 4k mon is what im gonna get

@patent lagoon yes sorry I meant the aoc has a 27inch panel that's 1440p at 144hz for 260 which is a 1500r curve to it. 55 dollars more than their 27inch panel which basically the same but a 1800r curve and at 1080p resolution. I've been trying to decide between 1080p and 1440p resolution for a new monitor upgrade from a 22 inch acer 1680x1050 resolution at 60hz

#

@cedar tusk that was a 1080p monitor I was looking at as well to stay under 200 and be at 1080p gaming at high refresh rate it sounds like a nice panel for the price

patent lagoon Sep 12, 2020, 2:05 AM

#

@neat pilot 27" on 1080p doesn't look good imo

neat pilot Sep 12, 2020, 2:08 AM

#

@patent lagoon okay that's what I keep being told but never had a true gaming monitor before so I really don't know. But if I go for 1080p might go with the sceptre 24 inch 165hz 1080p ips panel for 180 otherwise might try and get the 1440p VA panel from aoc for 260 or pixio 27inch 1440p panel for 290.

@neat pilot

@patent lagoon I was looking at a rx 5600 xt or 5700 xt to replace my old HD 6970 and have amd for cpu and gpu, but right now looking at the rtx 3070 instead. My budget was at 300 but might have to increase it due to Nvidias new cards lol

@patent lagoon also was loolomg at the VIOTEK GFT27CXB 27-Inch Gaming Monitor | 240Hz 1080p

patent lagoon Sep 12, 2020, 3:24 AM

#

Ya just 1080 doesn't look as good at 27"

#

At least in my opinion cause I have both

neat pilot Sep 12, 2020, 3:34 AM

#

Yeah I'm either going with the viotech for 240hz 1080p or sceptre 24inch 165hz for 1080p or the aoc 27inch 1440p 144hz curved momitor
It's 180 for sceptre, 300 for viotecj and 260 for aoc before tax all numbers

#

@patent lagoon could you explain to me why 1080p looks so terrible above 24 inches? I don't think I would be able to tell since I have terrible eye sight but I hear that most people can

patent lagoon Sep 12, 2020, 4:00 AM

#

Just stretching out a less amount of pixels on a bigger screen

granite field Sep 12, 2020, 4:19 AM

#

Yeah it's all about pixel density

#

1080p at 24" is 91 pixels per inch (ppi). 1440p at 27" is 109 ppi.

#

24" at 1440p is 122 ppi which is pretty significantly better than 1080p at the same size, but it's hard to find a 24" 1440p panel.

Dell sold a 24" 1440p 144hz panel at I've point.

comments?

#

1080P vs 1440P

full moat Sep 12, 2020, 4:03 PM

#

if you can only fit a 24inch or below monitor on your desk, stick to 1080p imo

#

if 27inch or above, 1440p/4k

#

but, this is generally considered a personal preference

#

there are some people that dont mind 1080p on 27inch and above.

#

Astigmatism

You can always use scaling to make things bigger or smaller

i use the win10 handicap text enlarger

visual pilot Sep 12, 2020, 7:45 PM

#

and there's software to make words more noticeable

#

do keep in mind 1080p monitors tend to be 24in diagnally, with 1440p monitors being 27in, so the words can be the same size, and giving you more screen realestate

but none of them are exactly super duper monitors

I dunno what that is in USD but I feel like that monitor should be about $300-320 usd

About $479 USD.

For comparison the Samsung G7 is around $522 USD after conversion.

you don't?

hmmm thats not good lol

which is what it is ig

wait whats a va panel

visual pilot Sep 13, 2020, 7:34 PM

vertically alligned

generally panels in the simplest terms :
IPS > VA > TN

fringe ridge Sep 13, 2020, 7:35 PM

hm okay so how many va panels is in a 27in monitor or is it just one layer of the monitor

visual pilot Sep 13, 2020, 7:35 PM

It's the panel type

#

the monitor is 1 panel

fringe ridge Sep 13, 2020, 7:35 PM

ah okay

there are 3 major types

VA IPS and TN

#

there's some other ones but not really common

fringe ridge Sep 13, 2020, 7:36 PM

#

right i gotcha

#

so how much would a 240hz 27in TN panel be do you think?

visual pilot Sep 13, 2020, 7:36 PM

#

Same price

#

and bad colors

fringe ridge Sep 13, 2020, 7:36 PM

#

o

visual pilot Sep 13, 2020, 7:36 PM

#

Cheap 240hz monitors usually are ~300$

#

Tn and va

fringe ridge Sep 13, 2020, 7:37 PM

#

oh ips is better okay

visual pilot Sep 13, 2020, 7:37 PM

#

Might as well get va for generally better colors

fringe ridge Sep 13, 2020, 7:37 PM

#

so spending $200 more on a 240hz monitor may be worth it if its a better panel for better brightness and colors?

man there is way more to display purchasing than I thought

Definitely get display port for the second one, judging by your current monitor your gpu doesn’t have hdmi 2.1 support

"Yeah for me I lose my hud/kill feed on 24"+ monitors" <- it could easily be debated that is a fault/mistake on the scaling of the UI side of things :)

I think certain resolutions are getting phased out like how 720P used to be considered HD and now it's not even that.
1080P is the standard nowadays but as 1440P and 4K grow bigger those will become standard soon enough and I'm sure 1080P won't even be considered HD anymore.

oh wait actually I think that one is refurbished, but it’s right at your price point

#

Seems like a good 4K monitor is still $1000+

So I bought this earlier today and it'll probably ship in a day or two. Do any of you have any experience using clamp style monitor mounts with an ultrawide? It's 34" and I believe 18lbs (with stand, can't find the without weight)

#

I'd get the AmazonBasics mount but it's like $150 right now

full moat Sep 15, 2020, 12:36 AM

#

i have done plenty of monitor mounts with heavier monitors/machines

#

but, i have generally used ergotron or industrial arms for it

#

and ergotron arms are not cheap, but holy heck are they nice to work with @high kettle

high kettle Sep 15, 2020, 12:47 AM

#

I'll check them out - thanks!

When I overclock my display, is it normal to see a couple lines when I press test with Nvidia control panel? Like I only see it when the screen turns black for a second

#

im getting a new monitor since the last one got cancelled oddly

#

so Im deciding between these 2

#

and another thing trying to find a mount like this

#

📎 VIVO-Triple-Monitor-2-1-Stand.png

#

but cant decide

#

oh thats an actual stand.

patent lagoon Sep 15, 2020, 3:43 AM

#

I feel like it'd fall one day

storm pawn Sep 15, 2020, 3:53 AM

#

^^ i feel like a wall mount would be better

maiden wedge Sep 15, 2020, 3:58 AM

#

do you have any suggestions?

tranquil pawn Sep 15, 2020, 3:59 AM

#

yeah a wall mount would be better and that baseplate will NEED to be screwed into the desk just for stability concerns

#

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00B1D03GQ?tag=pcpapi-20&linkCode=ogi&th=1&psc=1

#

theres this one

#

same model but allows you to either mount to the desk or drill a hole for mounting

storm pawn Sep 15, 2020, 4:00 AM

#

a desk clamp looks good

#

but looks pricey to me

#

but if its fine for u

#

its all good

maiden wedge Sep 15, 2020, 4:01 AM

#

50$ its the most decent looking one i could find

storm pawn Sep 15, 2020, 4:01 AM

#

aight, sounds good

tranquil pawn Sep 15, 2020, 4:01 AM

#

yeah because as far as I can see wall mounts only allow for 2 monitors tops

maiden wedge Sep 15, 2020, 4:01 AM

#

i want to be able to do 2 on top

#

1 bottom

storm pawn Sep 15, 2020, 4:01 AM

#

hmmm

tranquil pawn Sep 15, 2020, 4:01 AM

#

so the desk clamp is good but I would recommend a drill in

storm pawn Sep 15, 2020, 4:01 AM

#

that would take a while to find i thin

maiden wedge Sep 15, 2020, 4:01 AM

#

📎 unknown.png

#

like this one

storm pawn Sep 15, 2020, 4:02 AM

#

dangg

#

yea i got ur idea

tranquil pawn Sep 15, 2020, 4:02 AM

#

yeah that looks cool but to make it look cleaner like to have the dual wall mount and one on the bottom using the regular stand

#

also damn that setup is dirty

maiden wedge Sep 15, 2020, 4:02 AM

#

yeah some person from amazon

tranquil pawn Sep 15, 2020, 4:03 AM

#

yeah so it’s most your choice

maiden wedge Sep 15, 2020, 4:03 AM

#

my plan is to have the 1440p on bottom

#

and 2x 1080p on top

tranquil pawn Sep 15, 2020, 4:03 AM

#

if you want all the monitors to be adjustable then go for the desk clamp or drill in options

maiden wedge Sep 15, 2020, 4:03 AM

#

im going clamp

#

itll look cleaner and such

storm pawn Sep 15, 2020, 4:03 AM

#

that specific configuration seems to be hard to find

tranquil pawn Sep 15, 2020, 4:03 AM

#

or if you are fine with the bottom monitor not being a adjustable as much then go for a wall mount + regular stand

storm pawn Sep 15, 2020, 4:04 AM

#

or, you could have a single monitor wall mount on the bottom and then seperately buy a double monitor mount and install it on top

tranquil pawn Sep 15, 2020, 4:04 AM

#

that could work too

#

but then you would have to rearrange which monitors go where

maiden wedge Sep 15, 2020, 4:05 AM

#

i cant really wall mount stuff

#

sadly

#

the wall my pc is sitting on is literally no support beams in the wall

tranquil pawn Sep 15, 2020, 4:05 AM

#

oof

maiden wedge Sep 15, 2020, 4:05 AM

#

it was a half effort wall

#

sheetrock

#

on both sides and the wall is supported properly

tranquil pawn Sep 15, 2020, 4:06 AM

#

not drywall?

maiden wedge Sep 15, 2020, 4:06 AM

#

but with minimal effort put in

tranquil pawn Sep 15, 2020, 4:06 AM

#

oof

maiden wedge Sep 15, 2020, 4:06 AM

#

I think so

#

I just know i tried to mount a shelf and it fell

tranquil pawn Sep 15, 2020, 4:06 AM

#

well yeah desk clamp or drill in is your best option

maiden wedge Sep 15, 2020, 4:07 AM

#

thats why I was gonna go with the one i linked

tranquil pawn Sep 15, 2020, 4:07 AM

#

yeah that’s good

maiden wedge Sep 15, 2020, 4:07 AM

#

how about this.

@maiden wedge consider the following: What is the value of your monitors?

I care about them

as i do with my pc

yeah I think it will sufffice

#

just make sure it doesn’t tip over

maiden wedge Sep 15, 2020, 4:09 AM

i think itll be fine

#

my computer is on the desk

#

so the weight from that should ber fine

full moat Sep 15, 2020, 4:09 AM

its not the desk tipping over that is the "problem"

maiden wedge Sep 15, 2020, 4:09 AM

#

its the mount tipping over

full moat Sep 15, 2020, 4:09 AM

#

correct.

maiden wedge Sep 15, 2020, 4:10 AM

#

which is why using bolt in or clamp is best

tranquil pawn Sep 15, 2020, 4:10 AM

#

yes

full moat Sep 15, 2020, 4:10 AM

#

its why using a WIDE clamp or bolting into a wide support on the desk (if it is NOT a solid wood desk)

maiden wedge Sep 15, 2020, 4:10 AM

#

my desk has center supports

#

but thats literally center

tranquil pawn Sep 15, 2020, 4:11 AM

#

judging buy the listing yeah your table is made out of sturdy reinforced wood

maiden wedge Sep 15, 2020, 4:11 AM

#

i got it free too cause my boss drilled 4 holes in the wrong spot

#

and was gonna toss it

#

after replacing it for the customer

full moat Sep 15, 2020, 4:12 AM

#

for the arm, i would suggest a dual arm setup instead

#

if you are trying to recreate the triangle monitor setup from earlier

#

something like the Ergotron HX dual arm for the bottom two monitors

#

and a Ergotron LX, Tall pole for the top monitor

maiden wedge Sep 15, 2020, 4:15 AM

#

i want to do the way it was setup before

#

due to the fact I want my 1440 to front and center

#

and the rest be up and still seeable

#

Holy crap

#

the egotron is like

#

expensive

full moat Sep 15, 2020, 4:20 AM

#

yes

#

it also actually works :)

#

that was why i asked you about how you value your monitors

maiden wedge Sep 15, 2020, 4:21 AM

yeah so that will happen but a little bit later

ill get something to pass me by for now

The bezel is about 1/4" but there is another 1/4-1/3" black bar so if you were running multi monitors there would be a 1/2-3/4" gap between frames

wheat oracle Sep 16, 2020, 6:21 PM

#

well 24" - 27"

granite field Sep 16, 2020, 6:28 PM

#

Anyone think about ordering one of the Eve displays?

visual pilot Sep 16, 2020, 6:36 PM

#

@wheat oracle the one I linked above

#

@granite field I'm gonna wait for reviews on those :D

granite field Sep 16, 2020, 6:39 PM

#

The biggest thing keeping me from ordering is the "late December" release

#

I could see that being early February pretty easily

Some things that seem too good to be true are too good to be true

granite field Sep 16, 2020, 6:40 PM

#

Yeah that was what I was worried about

visual pilot Sep 16, 2020, 6:40 PM

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

that's what I'm worried about too

granite field Sep 16, 2020, 6:41 PM

#

The option to buy the stand is a nice touch, wish more companies did that.

visual pilot Sep 16, 2020, 6:42 PM

#

apple

granite field Sep 16, 2020, 6:42 PM

#

I had thought about getting an HP Omen X27, and I'd just have that weird shovel of a stand hanging around in my closet

#

Haha I forgot about Apple's stand

#

I'm sure people bought it too

visual pilot Sep 16, 2020, 6:42 PM

#

sure it saves companies 1000$ by going vesa mount but

#

wait

#

1000$

full moat Sep 16, 2020, 6:44 PM

#

do remember, most companies have vesa arms already

granite field Sep 16, 2020, 6:44 PM

#

Seems in line with the rest of the display.

#

ergotron arms that last for 10+ years come to mind

granite field Sep 16, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

$5000 for a monitor? What's another grand for a stand

visual pilot Sep 16, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

Yea

full moat Sep 16, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

5k, in that segment? is cheap

granite field Sep 16, 2020, 6:46 PM

#

That segment being apple enthusiasts?

full moat Sep 16, 2020, 6:46 PM

#

that display aimed for actual colour work

#

as in, reference work

#

look at the spec sheet of it

covert solstice Sep 16, 2020, 6:52 PM

#

kinda sad u cant use all the features outside of macos but you cant have everything

full moat Sep 16, 2020, 6:54 PM

#

mainly because you would risk being happy if you got everything @covert solstice

#

can we not post pics in here?

#

I have a project that may be of interest

#

I bought a "dakboard" at a garage sale thinking it was a nice monitor, which it was, but it's got a raspberry pi crudely inserted where the ports should be

#

I took it apart, removed the pi, and found that the board wit the ports was in backwards.

#

now I have a raspberry pi and a new monitor for 5 dollars.

#

I’m looking for a really cheap 1080p monitor

deep fern Sep 16, 2020, 9:31 PM

#

Oh ya the Apple display well priced, average users just don’t know how much a real display costs

#

xD

full moat Sep 16, 2020, 9:41 PM

#

is the apple display over specced for the regular user? yes

#

is it overpriced for what it delivers? imo. no.

covert solstice Sep 16, 2020, 9:54 PM

#

it looks good too

📎 ex0g7z2pn6m51.png

#

but yeah it packs some serious specs for the price

#

1000 nits sustained and 1600 nits peak, 6k@218ppi, 1mil:1 contrast and other stuff

full moat Sep 16, 2020, 9:58 PM

#

aye

#

if there is anything to critique, its that apple does not offer anything more suited for the average user

covert solstice Sep 16, 2020, 9:59 PM

#

and it is one chonky monitor

#

aye

#

would i personally want one? no

#

i have absolutely no use for it

covert solstice Sep 16, 2020, 10:00 PM

#

yuh

#

my monitor has good enough specs for color critical stuff and refresh rate for gaming for me

sick condor Sep 16, 2020, 10:25 PM

#

Is a 240hz tn monitor for $180 an ok deal if idc about color reproduction much

full moat Sep 16, 2020, 10:34 PM

#
