LOL

#

anyone

#

pls?

dim jasper
#

I know this one

#

however it is not CERTIFIED G-SYNC some people just say it works, but its mainly for freesync, however it is under 300 and IPS

upbeat summit
#

which is pretty good but $500 Cringe

dim jasper
#

but i'm still deciding myself if I should buy that

#

which is also y i'm asking at the top

celest lark
#

would a 4k monitor on the side really affect fps?

full moat
#

if its just sitting on the desktop? no

#

if you are telling it to do something that puts a load on the GPU? yes

deep estuary
#

Anyone familiar with the gigabyte g32qc?

#

Best 24in 1080p 144hz monitors under 200 preferably va or ips

covert solstice
#

@visual pilot whats that ips monitor u like

full moat
#

gigabyte something something 23,x inch

#

or is it msi

#

either of those

covert solstice
#

i think its msi but idk

visual pilot
#

g241

#

for 24in 1080p

#

gigabyte G27q and M27q for 1440p 144hz/170hz

dense bone
#

How different is the g27qc

visual pilot
#

qc is VA

#

the q suffix is IPS

dense bone
#

Ok thanks I think I might do primary g27q or g27qc and secondary 24in

deep estuary
#

OH

#

Neat

#

Idk if this is the place to ask but im trying to see if the acer xv253qx exist because google search isnt leading me to any store page

maiden wedge
#

Alienware 2720 ips 1ms 240hz destroys all those monitors ;D

#

For 1080p that is

solemn bronze
#

really

west knot
#

Maybe ill try my luck on Acer XB273U GX whenever that becomes available

solemn bronze
#

@west knot is that a predator monitor?

west knot
#

Ye

solemn bronze
#

try the gigabyte g27

west knot
#

If im going 27in i might as well go 1440p as well

west knot
#

1440p 240hz are just starting to come out so im considering my options

#

Ips panel anyways

solemn bronze
#

not 240hz but its 165hz and ips i think

#

the non-curved version is the m27q

west knot
#

Ngl that is a pretty good panel

#

Also thinking about the acer pred xb253q gx

maiden wedge
#

my eyes are hurting after long exposure to my monitor (online classes, school work, games..)

#

is there any way i can at least partially solve this problem ?

#

like installing filters maybe ?

#

i have no idea

solemn bronze
#

there are apps that can tint the screen to daylight mode

#

or just lower brightness

#

both helped me out a lot

maiden wedge
#

thanks for the tip

#

appreciate it

covert solstice
#

turn on a blue light filter if ur monitor has one

west knot
#

Hard to decide on xb253q gx and the mag251rx

maiden wedge
#

i would personally just get the cheaper one

#

both look amazing

#

Are monoprice monitors good? Haven’t heard of them

worthy oak
#

I would try and look at a review

#

Because really budget VA panels aometimes have bad ghosting if it’s not a reliable manufacturer

#

Though your mileage may vary

native quartz
#

best 144hz monitor that could be found under about 200

#

i am looking for the most smooth experience not the best colors

dark condor
#

is there a 1440p and a 144hz flat monitor for less than 279$

#

cause there is one but it curved

tropic kite
#

@dark condor I cant find one that is. But, there is a $310, IPS, 1440p, 144hz, and flat monitor

dark condor
#

that a decent price

#

Thanks @tropic kite

#

can you link it

tropic kite
#

yessir

visual pilot
#

@dark condor do you prefer flat or curved?

tropic kite
#

do you prefer any type of panel (IPS, VA, TN)?

dark condor
#

ips perfered

tropic kite
#

good good

dark condor
#

@visual pilot i perfer curved but it will look weird with my flat monitor rn

visual pilot
dark condor
#

honey?

dark condor
#

thank you

visual pilot
tropic kite
#

But use 2BFSTNW256

dark condor
#

oo ok

tropic kite
#

It also isn't g-sync certified, but it still works fine with g-sync

visual pilot

got the msi monitor knock on wood nothing is wrong with it

young canyon
#

I am feeling regret. I got a 24 inch 1080p monitor a while back, now I want to get a second one that is 1440p but all good 1440p monitors are 27+ inch so they won't be even

visual pilot
#

Hm, I don't have any issues with my g sync compatible curved monitor

worthy oak
#

It all depends on brand

#

And model

#

Some have better support from what I’ve seen

#

They’re all “compatitable” to a certain degree but to what degree is up to manufacturer

visual pilot
#

@worthy oak ofc it's on a model to model basis, but I'm commenting on the MSI Optix curved monitor bit, I have a mag241c

dense aspen
#

can someone recommend a 27" flat 144hz monitor that is VESCA wall mount compatible? or at least can be wall mounted?

Are there any displays on the market with good built in speakers?

The speaker bar under my dell UltraSharp U2410 is the main reason I've held on to it for so long.

#

24-27" 1080 or 1440

warped night
#

Just use headphones

#

Built in speakers are always going to be literal garbage

#

Ultrasharps have separate speaker units on the bottom.

#

They are slightly better than average.

#

What the cheapest 1440p 144hz monitor?

autumn pumice
#

i have a gigabyte m27 which is 165hz 1440p

torn night
#

anyone have it yet? it's somewhat newly released....

warped night
#

I would just save more up for an Odyssey G7.

velvet pivot
#

Eh

#

He's going for 3440x1440p, so not really

candid zinc
#

Which for 729 Australian dollars seems pretty good to me

#

@ocean jasper best bet, try and contact LG support?

torn night
#

@candid zinc I was eyeballing that one too, or a similar gigabyte.. for 399 US dollar...

#

just looked, same one....

i have never toyed with that model @ocean jasper so i am going to pass.

In a few years from now, shape shifting robots will be the new smart phones. They'll fit in your pocket, grow to sizes larger than a human and have the ability to mesh morph into nearly any object or shape. It's like a hologram that can actually pick stuff up, R&D is coming along well, I have two shape shifting robots on my desk right now, we're still working on finishing the surface before going public, right now it's just a closed matrix of robotic polygons, looks like a skeleton. I'll try to post some pics or videos over the next month or two, not tryna spoil the launch but it's a sick technology, can't keep my mouth shut lol. Just sayin maybe don't spend too much money on a 2D monitor or VR headset lol, they're already outdated technologies.

flat saffron
#

does the samsung g7 24inch 244hz curved have good color or do the lg ultra gear monitors have better color?

sage trail
#

G7 is curved

#

iirc its VA?

#

the color accuracy differences between VA and IPS are minimal for most gamers

#

you are free to leave

#

its 3 am for me rn

#

im drunk

#

not now lol

flat saffron
#

its about to replace my main monitor so the color kinda matters

sage trail
#

i see, what monitor do you have now?

#

are you doing any work that requires accurate colors?

#

if so, then IPS is the way to go

#

G7 and G9 are both VA, just checked

flat saffron
#

how do i check what monitor i have

sage trail
#

model number

#

how old is it about?

flat saffron
#

1 year

#

around that

sage trail
#

are you getting paid for any work you are doing on this monitor?

flat saffron
#

i wish but no

sage trail
#

then VA vs IPS really doesnt matter

#

most modern monitors are very good with color accuracy

#

however, if you have a TN panel, then thats a different story

#

because TN colors just suck, regardless of what you do

flat saffron
#

i dont think its tn

#

gimme a sec im checking

flat saffron
#

are the alienware 240hz monitors any good for their price?

sage trail
#

its all about the panel

#

is a 240hz monitor good? yes, now where can you get it the cheapest

#

there are many other factors that go into choosing a monitor tho

#

brand is not one of them

dusky nebula
waxen root
#

Honestly is 27in 4k even worth it, feel like having a big screen TV is a lot better for 4k gaming than a small monitor

west knot
#

4k 32+in would be the starting point i guess

velvet pivot
#

Not even 32" tbh, unless I'm wrong about how big it is

#

Would be much better at 40"+ imo

pearl tide
#

I want like the best but cheap ppi monitors with good enough colors so a small 4k monitor would be nice for me

smoky bear
#

Just got 2 for a large 2-monitor display

warped night
#

27" 1080p isn't great

#

24" is the largest you want a 1080p display to be.

smoky bear
#

Well, I got 2 at 27” - lol 🤷‍♂️

warped night
#

Oof

maiden wedge
#

@warped night my last monitor was a 32in 1080p

#

O.o

#

i wish they made more 24 inch 1440p monitors

granite chasm
#

So I don’t know much about monitors but I’m trying to find a 2nd monitor for my setup preferably something for more video/livestream watching for my current/first monitor I’m running asus tuf 27inch 2560x1440 165hz monitor any recommendations for a 2nd monitor or should I just get the same one?

maiden wedge
#

Budget and required/wanted features? I always recommend people buy a $150, 1080p 60hz display for their second monitor unless they actually need something better. You're gonna lose preformance if you throw a 1440p second display in and use it to watch 1440p-4k music videos and live streams, decoding anything more than 1080p will significantly impact your preformance.

#

People still argue whether or not 1440p or 144hz is actually worth the money for a main display, if all you're doing is side tasks on your second monitor do you really need it to be 1440p 144+hz? If you have the budget go for it but, you're looking at a lot more money plus less preformance for a 1440p 144hz display.

visual pilot
#

@granite chasm I'm gonna start off with suggesting a 370$ Gigabyte M27q for 1440p170hz that tend to be cheaper than the Asus options. But what are you trying to do on the second monitor? That determines what second monitor you should get. For example, if you want to do like photo editing for work, get a dell ultrasharp, if you just want to use it for discord, get a monitor that has pivot, if you want another monitor to play games on, maybe for console or smth, maybe you'll want a 1080p/1440p 144hz panel.

warped night
#

@maiden wedge 24" 1440p would be nigh pointless. 27" you can already barely see the pixels as-is

#

24" 1440p is about as stupid as a 13" 4K laptop display.

#

Which is really forking stupid.

maiden wedge
#

No you're wrong, 24" 1440p gives you far superior DPI, comparable to 4K at 27-32", but it's easier to run and you can actually see the entire screen.

#

27" requires abnormally large distance between the user and display to be able to see all data on the screen, meaning that you're wasting your 1440p by sitting so far away from it

warped night
#

But that DPI is pointless. You can't physically see pixels at 24" 1440p at any range beyond point blank.

maiden wedge
#

That's the point, you're not suppose to see the pixels. thats how you transcend AA

warped night
#

And that is far from true for 27"

#

No, the point is not over cramming your display.

#

And at 24" 1440p you are over-cramming the display.

maiden wedge
#

You can't over cram your display, but you can waste dpi by sitting too far away from the screen

warped night
#

Yes you can over-cram a display.

maiden wedge
#

"overcramming" means that anything more than 1440p is pointless, which its not

warped night
#

At 24" 1440p is a pointless resolution. That's why people don't make 24" 1440p displays.

maiden wedge
#

if 1440p is over crammed, then whats your min size for 8k screens?

#

even 8k is not pointless

warped night
#

60"

#

4k's min is 32" realistically.

maiden wedge
#

8k on a 6 inch display is what I'd call a proper DPI, anything less is a compromise

#

If you disagree you don't understand AA, unless you have a proper argument against it

#

You can't display diagonal lines on anything less than a 8K 6inch display without using AA, which not only takes processing power but inherently reduces image sharpness

#

8K for 6 inches is quite an exageration, I'm pretty sure the currently accepted theory is 1440p for sub10 inch displays, 8K for anything 10-32 inch and 16K+ for anything bigger, although I believe I have enough data to argue double that resoluton.

warped night
#

All of those are insane ideas. You physically couldn't see the detail of the display at a 6 inch 8k display.

#

8K at anything smaller than 60" is pure insanity

maiden wedge
#

you don't understand diagonal lines and AA, im not trying to be rude. At 4K 27", you still need AA to see diagonal lines, which again reduces image quality/sharpness and wastes computational power.

#

Try looking at a fence in CSGO on a 4K 27" monitor, it's physically impossible to see on such a low DPI screen. You either see a jagged mess w/ no AA or a blurry mess w/ AA.

granite chasm
#

@visual pilot it’s for watching videos and watching live streams but I will have discord and some basic stuff I need like charts and other necessities for hardcore raiding in wow I have like a budget of $550

warped night
#

Have... You seen a 4K 27" display yourself? Because I have, and without AA there's no jagged mess like you describe.

#

Not compared to a 24" 1080p

#

That without AA is definitely a jagged mess.

maiden wedge
#

You're simply wrong I'm sorry, while it might be hard to distinguish there's an objective difference in image quality and accuracy, diagonal lines simply cannot be rendered accurately on such a low DPI display, it's a known fact amongst fellow display researchers, I'm trying to find a paper on the subject give me a few minutes.

#

The suggested DPI for artifact less display is 300-600 DPI, with some researchers suggesting DPIs of higher than 600 are necessary for accurate image replication.

#

Just because you can't comprehend the difference doesn't mean an objective, noticable difference doesn't exist. I can easily differentiate 300 DPI from 600 DPI, because I'm a display researcher and I know what to look for.

Owen#9960 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

maiden wedge
#

I messed up my math but my point holds true, dpi is a variable in the function of display quality, it's not the sole metric

velvet pivot
#

Hm.

west knot
#

there will always be noticeable difference, you just dont see pixels anymore at the recommended resolution

#

also ui scaling is a pain

grand grove
#

anything have any opinion on the samsung CHG90 Series? 49 inch?

warped night
#

It that the Odyssey G7 or G9?

#

Both the Odyssey G7 and G9 are excellent monitors.

#

Apparently there's also an Odyssey G5

#

That honestly might be my next monitor.

#

1440p 27" with Freesync and HDR10/HDR600? All for 300? Not a bad deal.

warped night
#

Ok, the HDR performance of the G5 is... Meh at best.

#

Lame...

#

It's still an excellent gaming monitor with great color accuracy, it just has bad viewing angles due to being a VA panel.

sage trail
#

so maybe, like, 30 years from now, sure, maybe thats reasonable

#

but also, a 4k 27" panel at 2 feet away is "retina" or at the point where your eye can no longer distinguish individual pixels. I see no reason to make pixels any smaller than that tbh

#

give me a 27" 4k 360hz OLED for my desk and i will be the happiest man alive lmao

There's a $330 display on best buy rn- 32" 1440p 165hz, should I pull the plug or wait for some better black Friday deals?

Normally $450

visual pilot

Which exact one

#

G27qc as a 27in 1440p165hx monitor hovers around the 300$ mark usually

I would rather go for 1080 p since I don’t see a huge difference in 1440p on 24 inc

warped night

Uhh, HDMI 2.1 on Monitors is going to be a bit rough right now.

#

HDMI 2.1 is currently more a TV thing.

#

I think the Odyssey G9 has HDMI 2.1?

#

Can't confirm though

#

Ok, can confirm, Odyssey G9 does NOT have HDMI 2.1

#

I wish that LG would make an IPS version of the Odyssey G9 and G7...

Even though I build my PC last Tuesday, my screen is a Samsung 1080i LCD of a sort. What is considered a reasonable price for an OLED desktop?

thorn panther
#

having a tough choice between the LG 27GL850 27GN850, what do you guys think?

warped night
#

@flint stirrup OLED doesn't exist for the monitor market.

#

You would need to purchase a TV for OLED.

#

And, it's a really bad idea to use OLED on a PC anyways.

#

You will burn your OLED in with the Desktop Background and taskbar.

#

OLEDs don't like static images for long periods of time.

velvet pivot
#

OLED is used on phones and TVs because no one has either one on for the entire day for many days in a row

flint stirrup
#

Oof!

#

My mistake.

warped night
#

Well, OLED on TV also makes sense due to TV's never really displaying a single static image for extended periods of time.

#

There's always something moving with a TV

flint stirrup
#

I found out that my GPU enhances the monitor to 1080p, so I guess I don't need to replace anything.

velvet pivot
#

OLED on monitors may be possible, but they have to figure out how to make it not die out so fast

warped night
#

1080i is... not really great.

#

I'd recommend replacing that monitor/tv/display

#

OLED on monitor is getting skipped in favor of MiniLED and MicroLED

flint stirrup
#

I made a mistake when I said 1080i, though.

#

I checked afterward and realized it works with 1080p after all.

#

Sorry for the misinformation.

warped night
#

Still, a cheap 144hz 1080p monitor with an IPS display would be a vast improvement over that display.

velvet pivot
#

warped night
#

You could even use 2 monitors

#

And ascend beyond

flint stirrup
#

Make this one my backup monitor?

warped night
#

Yeah

flint stirrup
#

Okay!

warped night
#

Having 2 screens on Desktop is, fantastic.

flint stirrup
#

I was considering having two for different things

warped night
#

Let me grab a good 1080p display.

flint stirrup
#

I'd use the backup one for Switch as well.

velvet pivot
#

IPS is sexy smexy ☺️ no reason to consider something else over IPS unless prices

flint stirrup
#

Speaking of IPS, my Game Boy Color has a backlight of that format.

velvet pivot
#

Or some other different benefits no IPS has yet

flint stirrup
#

I'll keep this one for now, but I'll turn it into my backup monitor.

#

I'm also trying to get it under 100 USD used.

warped night
#

Under 100 USD?

flint stirrup
#

Unless people learned what they have.

warped night
#

Yikes

flint stirrup
#

Am I being too cheap?

warped night
#

Good monitors start at 170 to 180

#

That's for an IPS 1080p 144hz monitor

#

Which is where your life starts getting changed.

#

You get good colors, super fast response times, and just a butter smooth experience overall.

flint stirrup
#

Here's the problem: even used sellers learned what they have on eBay.

#

So they sell them only slightly under new prices.

warped night
#

That MSI Optix G241 I posted earlier is an excellent cheap display.

velvet pivot
#

Only people with half an IQ in PCs know what they have lmao

flint stirrup
#

They're not common?

velvet pivot
#

I mean, it was a bit satire, but you're probably not going to see any 1080p 144hz IPS under 150$

flint stirrup
#

Oh, right.

#

I'll look into it once the time is right.

velvet pivot
#

After all, it's a very good panel to have, and people would probably price it not so much under what they paid for

flint stirrup
#

So people wouldn't have buyer's remorse over it.

#

Again, fair.

i want a frameless

patent lagoon
#

just pick

#

look one up then

harsh anchor
#

thats whyt downvote. ur not helpful

#

lol

patent lagoon
#

there's plenty

#

the specs you're looking for are so vague

#

and you have a very wide selection to choose from including the "frameless" section

#

thats why i suggested a tv

visual pilot
#

It's impossible atm for using the gaming monitor tech we have today to have completely frameless monitors, Manufacturers just try to get the frame as thin as possible and market it as "frameless" compared to others @harsh anchor, so True frameless isn't gonna be a good.. requirement, but thin frame is achievable.

patent lagoon
#

but just get a 32" @harsh anchor since you seem like to have some desk real estate

#

exactly

#

my monitor is similarly specd. for about half the price :l

#

mm ya

harsh anchor
#

im looking for something similar to what i have but much less as a second monitor

patent lagoon
#

just a 32" would be good tho

harsh anchor
#

i dont want to see thick bezels

#

same size 27"

patent lagoon
#

mm

#

then go for a 27"

#

you dont need the high end specs cause of your main one

#

unless you do

#

but i need more info than 27" and "frameless"

harsh anchor
#

27" monitor

  • thin af bezels
  • not my main monitor
  • use for dual monitor
#

needs to be vesa mount compatible

#

-primary use movies/video editing

sage trail
#

so youre looking for screen real estate, and dont really need the highest quality image

harsh anchor
#

-cheaper then my aorus

visual pilot
#

Do you need color accuracy

#

that's the main question

sage trail
#

1080p 60hz IPS? 27-32"

#

good enough

harsh anchor
#

1080p does hz matter

#

for movies

sage trail
#

no

visual pilot
#

Movies no

velvet pivot
#

Nah

patent lagoon
#

no

velvet pivot
#

Only for gaming it does I guess, but w/e

visual pilot
#

Color accuracy might, so do you need color accuracy?

sage trail
#

as a secondary, 1080p 60 is all you need, but color accuracy might be important

#

@hardy idol why you need 240hz for lmao

im planning on getting a new build thats made for 240hz gaming

Vertical Digital Frequency: 47 Hz - 145 Hz does this mean Freesync will perform better? Or is it unrelated

When it comes to hooking a newer GPU to an older monitor that lacks display or hdmi ports an HDMI to dvi adapter would do fine correct?

Soooo I’m looking to get a monitor arm and the ones in stock are up to 27” but I’m getting a 32” monitor, will that bork it?

i have a gtx 1650 super and i mainly play esport titles so any advice on a good 144hz monitor i am fine with a tn panel i just need one with virtually no pixel ghosting

waxen root
#

I think most monitor mounts are universal? Mostly it just depends on the weight

#

I have 2x 1440p on mounts and it works well enough

#

What I have

#

I just wish the height was higher

native quartz
#

wait does that stand have hieght adjust

waxen root
#

yea that's what sucks about it lol I mean it can go up/down but maybe like 8-10 inches

rustic halo

is 144hz good

waxen root
#

yes but only if you can achieve it

#

@solemn bronze thanks bruv I read somewhere the adapter should be "active" rather than "passive". Is this true?

rustic halo
#

@waxen root thanks, btw how u get the 3090

#

and a ryzen 9 im guessing

waxen root
#

3090 was a lucky best buy drop, 5900x was pre-ordering on antonline early when it popped

#

Was originally trying for a 3080 but just got what I could, and decided to keep it because I got it with the 10% off Best Buy birthday coupon lol

rustic halo
#

can i have the 3090 when u get the 3080

I'm not switching anymore, sticking with the 3090

if u get a 144 hz monitor for example

does that mean the most fps u can raelly get is 144

#

i just got my AOC 24" 165hz monitor to use with my ps4

#

next up: pc

#

the monitor is great

#

i would definetly recommend it

maiden wedge
#

is there a noticeable diff between 144 and 165? i'm currently rocking a 60hz dell, so hopefully it'll outperform that

shrewd summit
#

anything higher than 60 will outperform

#

but im still playing on 60hz cause im using my ps4

#

the 165hz version is cheaper than the 144hz version, so i would just go for the extra refresh rate

#

but if you dont have a pc that'll get you to maximize the refresh rate, its useless

maiden wedge
#

dang so a mac with 60hz display can't use the 144hz screen?

shrewd summit
#

it can

#

what are the specs of your mac

#

and what games do you play

maiden wedge
#

dual core i5, 1536mb gpu?, and 8gb ram

shrewd summit
#

dont waist money on a good monitor then

maiden wedge
#

csgo and mc

shrewd summit

whats the average framerate you get in csgo

maiden wedge
#

HA

#

you're kidding right

shrewd summit
#

huh?

maiden wedge
#

lowest settings: 35-40

shrewd summit
#

then dont get a monitor, get a pc

maiden wedge
#

anything 30+ is a miracle

#

building a pc seems too catastrophic after seeing that verge guy building it

shrewd summit

LMAO

#

get a micro center prebuilt or something then

deep fern
#

Over hdmi iirc it can 120hz, but only desktop lol, you arent getting high refresh in any games

But maybe very old mac cant even support 120hz

maiden wedge

offerup seems to have good deals, but i hardly have any frame of reference to determine whether or not if a pc is a good deal or not

shrewd summit
#

ok whats your budget?

maiden wedge
#

at most is 1k, but preferably in the 600 range

shrewd summit
#

ok we can settle at about 800 then?

erm i would say so

ok give me a second then

gaunt wraith

Yall might flame me for this, but can I use 2 monitors, one off the gpu, and the other on the mobo?

maiden wedge
#

No, not unless your cpu has onboard graphics, Maybe... I’m a little confused

gaunt wraith
#

It does have integrated graphics :/

#

Haha

#

Anyone who responds, please @ me

keen scarab
#

@gaunt wraith I don’t think you can because the computer is going to display one or the other

#

If the GPU is displaying then on board graphics will lose priority but it will still be running because it’s a part of the CPU

#

So it may work but I doubt it

#

The only way to properly disable on board graphics is to disable them in the bios

muted quest
#

couldnt you have a virtual machine run off the integrated and just have it on the one monitor? idk if that would meet other requirements though

@odd abyss did you look into the viewsonic option i mentioned?

odd abyss
#

yea i did

kindred umbra

its 300 on b&h

#
dense bone
#

does g sync do much or is it worth it to go for a monitor with it

maiden wedge
#

@dense bone It helps with the picture quality. You should probably get a monitor with Freesync, and then just enable gsync manually. (almost every freesync monitor works with gsync)

dense bone
#

Yeah most that I am thinking of have freesync

maiden wedge
#

yeah, i actually just bought the asus one for my build

odd abyss
#

i think im going to go for the pixio monitor because its right in between them performance and price wise

#

and also there isnt really any reviews on the m27q so im a little bit sus

#

this was after some very long thinking

kindred umbra
odd abyss
#

i was as well because they are almost the same but ultimately the 165hz pushed me towards the pixio

#

i mean the pixio was designed to fight the viewsonic for the spot of best value

kindred umbra
#

yea, depending if the amazon listing for the viewsonic goes down to msrp tonight, ill pick it up. If not then the pixio

odd abyss
#

yea but then again the viewsonic wins in some areas that seem pretty crucial for gaming

kindred umbra
#

yea, it has a wider color gamut while the pixio has a slightly higher refresh rate. I think the viewsonic doesnt have a power brick tho

odd abyss
#

yea thats another thing about it

kindred umbra
#

ill tell update you when i pick something lol

#

by tonight most likely

odd abyss
#

alright ty

#

honestly tho the power brick is pushing me slightly away

kindred umbra
#

yea

#

but idk, i think its worth the trade off

#

the g27q has it too im p sure

odd abyss
#

huh ok

kindred umbra
#

yea it does

#

jus checked an unboxing

amber spoke
#

Can any please recommend a monitor 100-125$?

kindred umbra
#

i think benq has an ips monitor in that budget

odd abyss
#

@kindred umbra so looks like im going for the viewsonic only because the pixio monitor is too big for my desk

kindred umbra
#

you getting it off of amazon or bh?

odd abyss
#

bh because amazon doesnt have stock KEKW

kindred umbra
#

its in stock for me but a 60 dollar markup

odd abyss
#

ah

kindred umbra
#

amazon's return policy n stuff is so nice, its the only thing stopping me from getting the viewsonic from bh

candid zinc
#

And it's 210 dollars cheaper than normal

#

That's in Australian dollars

kindred umbra
#

@candid zinc 100hz seems to be on the lower side

kindred umbra
#

@odd abyss the viewsonic sold out on b&h gg lol

candid zinc
#

@kindred umbra Is there really going to be a huge difference though

#

First time getting a monitor so I wouldn't really know how major the difference would be

kindred umbra
#

I would jus go with something with a minimum of 144hz

candid zinc
kindred umbra
#

@candid zinc can you link me the website youre using, ill help look

candid zinc
#

Is the link to the monitor but yeah you can see the other stuff from there

kindred umbra
#

@candid zinc i would either go with that or aoc's option

candid zinc
#

Which ones that

kindred umbra
#
candid zinc
#

Actually yeah that one does look like a good option

#

Might go for that

#

@kindred umbra Also just one last question cause I've been confused by this for a while

#

You can use freesync with an nvidia gpu through displayport right?

#

Or something along those lines

#

I've read a lot of conflicting stuff and a lot of it seems outdated so just trying to get the record straight

kindred umbra
#

I may be wrong, but I'm pretty sure nvidia cards are now capable of using freesync

#

and always use dp to get the most out of your monitor, chances are you wont be able to get your full 144hz thru hdmi

candid zinc
#

Alright cool thanks for the help

#

Wouldn't have spotted that AOC one

#

I think I'll grab it while it's still on sale

that are above 60 fps

you can take it off the list then

cuz i rlly cant see the difference past 60

right so save ur money and go 144

I always view pixio and view sonic as off brands

kindred umbra

they make good monitors

maiden wedge
#

my mind cant see anythn different beyond 60 fps, i must have poor vision

#

so im chillin on a 144hz monitor

kindred umbra
#

viewsonic has a wider color gamut but is rarely in stock at msrp

#

pixio's color gamut isnt as wide but has higher native refresh rate

#

and is in stock

#

then the lenovo option cost more than both but it has a good display, uses lg's nano display or whatever im p sure

mental basin
#

@kindred umbra The Viewsonic is out of stock, the gigabyte I'm hesitant on, the Pixio I could potentially, but I personally view it as an off brand, and the Lenovo is way over my budget. None of those work

kindred umbra
#

with coupons, the lenovo came to 350 usd for me

#

and if youre willing to wait, the viewsonic is on backorder on b&h for msrp

#

have you checked out hardware unboxed? they have really good monitor reviews

mental basin
#

I'm building my computer in 2 weeks

kindred umbra
#

i would recommend checking them out, they do in depth testing of monitors

and they have a review on both the viewsonic and pixio

@wild grove M27q is good if you're not too worried about HDR, on sale for 320$ right now. There's the pixio prime px7 or whatever, I'll find it, that's more expensive but can do HDR better.

#

PX7 is out of stock sadly

#

@visual pilot px277 basically replaced the px7

#

lenovo has a good option but its 350 before tax

Question: what type of panel would be best for gaming and content consumption? VA or ips?

visual pilot
#

IPS has better colors than VA, in general IPS is preferred over VA at the same specs.

What do ya'll think about the samsung odyssey G7?

I wish I had the money

#

apparently there is a trend of pc monitors listing themselves as 'bezel less' but really they just cut the frame out and dont extend the display to match the fame.
so your 'bezel less' pc monitor still has an ugly 8-10mm border on the edges making stretching the screen across multiple displays ugly and displeasing

Is there any other panels beside ips, va, and tn?

Those are the main three I hear

(Samsung Odyssey C27JG56 VA 1440p) or (MSI Optix G271 - 27" FHD IPS 144 Hz)

maiden wedge
#

isn’t the G271 a 1080p monitor though ?

tidal stump
#

ok cool, but now all the good monitors are gone or not on sale lol

maiden wedge
#

you’re comparing two monitors that are hard to compare in my opinion

#

at least you should choose the resolution and also, what are you planning to do with the monitor ?

#

@worn tusk

im gaming but i alsow do a lot of digital drawing. thats why im considering the ips pannel

Does anyone have data on lifespan of VA vs ips vs TN displays?

What are you using them for? @maiden wedge

Anyone know anything about displays? If my gpu works best at 1440p 144hz, will it be able to handle dual 1440p 60hz monitors well?

Why not one at 144hz and the other 60?

Hey @kisuske mostly audio editing /office but some light gaming. Curious about long term viability of ips panels.

Whatever you do

#

Just don't get tn

#

They look nasty

#

Hey all, not sure if it’s been asked previously but, what monitor options do I have that would be the best to use with a ps5, $200 and under? Thanks in advance

#

Or maybe a tv that would utilize the ps5 output, same price point.

#

My son wants to upgrade his tv to a monitor, unfortunately the cost of some of the recommended ones are steep after buying a ps5 and other things money is thin. Any advice is appreciated.

I just went with a Lenovo VA panel. It's for office/studio so will be directly looked at. Separate setup for movies etc. I had been toying with the idea of an ultrawide IPS but couldn't find anything with good reviews in budget. Settled on 1440p at 75hz

eternal shard
#

so I'm able to upgrade my monitor and have 2 choices.. either a TUF gaming VG279 ($399) or ASUS ROG Swift PG279Q ($600) both 27". any suggestions on which one?

#

please ping me to get my attention

patent lagoon
#

@forest seal a lot of models are under $200 for 144hz but it's only 1080p

#

The chances of finding a TV for under $200 with 120hz refresh are probably sold out by bow and would have to wait till cyber Monday

#

for 1080p240 I'll have to take a second to look around again

you had a talk with the vendor you bought from @supple plover ?

supple plover

I haven't, I'm sure they could send me one no problem. But I'm not too fussed over tbh

fair enough

#

i know (from experience on the vendor side) that i would appreciate the knowledge that there is a potential QA issue on that suppliers side of things @supple plover

#

@earnest oak imo yes

#

wow thats nice @smoky bear

#

but how does that compare to mine

#

i like frameless

but i cant tell if this is TN or VA or IPS

#

i think ima go with mine cuz its ips

Go with that @maiden wedge

lethal flicker
#

I seek a monitor

#

Spare me thy wisdom

#

For I seek good color quality, good picture, and 1080p

#

oh yeah, and no higher than $350

urban epoch
#

Is 1080p good for 27"?

maiden wedge
#

@lethal flicker look at one i linked

#

24-27" is good for 1080p

#

its only one thats 24 inch and 1080p and in stock

#

so many are out there but u have to wait till january

#

it rly doesnt have bad stats for a price of 180

#

@lethal flicker the stats u are looking for
color- ips (panel type)
144 hz, 1080p
size of screen- unknown
price- up to 350 but do you want the thing to be around 350 or do u prefer under 180

urban epoch
#

Should I buy a 27" 1080p for like 200 or a 1440p for like 600 or so in summer?

maiden wedge
#

i mean if u go to a bigger screen, u will want to get a higher resolution screen

#

that's totally your choice : 1080p and 1440p is a big difference and the price of the two monitors are totally incomparable

#

1080p on a 32 inch isnt the same as it is on a 24 inch

#

but dont go 1440p cuz rlly eyes cant detect that difference and this whole 4k stuff too

#

24 inch panel is pleenty

#

ppl say its a big difference, it only adds another couple nore pixels to refresh, it really isnt that big of a deal when you consider the size of the monitor

#

@urban epoch

#

but idk of a monitor that is good that u will get for 27" at 1080 for 200...

#

ur ganna have to settle for 24 inches

#

you don't feel any difference between 1080 and 1440 ?

#

@maiden wedge i really dont

#

hmmm

#

my friend has both types

#

the movement in screen is quiet similar

#

i use 1080p on a daily basis...

#

and when i just switch to 1440p i sense quite a big difference

#

300 pixels changes ur eyes... cmon lol

#

that are disperesed accross the screen

#

it rlly doesnt, i think its the fact that u bought somethn new that u never had, your mind gets fooled into thinking its great

#

thats the first stage of happiness till you realize there rlly is no big difference

#

hmm

#

1440p would be good for bigger screens

#

because itll need those extra pixels

#

ah that might be it

#

but for a small screen it is completely useless

#

24 inches at 1080p is ore than enough

#

yeah, never used 24 1440

#

whats ur screen size

#

24 1080 is what i personally own, never thought of upgrading

#

good and keep it that way

#

no need to go heavy on a monitor
