[mossy kindle]

$889.99

this price equal with 4k's

[mossy tendon]

4k only goes up to 144hz

this is a 240hz IPS display

in 2k

which Radeon GPUs excel at

[spring sequoia]

@mossy kindle am using a predator xb3 4k 144 and a 3070 so yes that is fine

btw if you want a nice monitor used is a great option

[dusty shale]

Theres multiple 4k 144hz, the cheapest seems to be $800

[teal fulcrum]

What is everyone's opinion on the gigabyte M27Q or the MSI MAG272CQR

Or the GIGABYTE G27QC

[visual pilot]

M27q

is great

[teal fulcrum]

Is 360 a fair price for it?

[visual pilot]

Yes, sometimes sales drop it another 30$ though, like on black friday and christmas sales

[teal fulcrum]

I mean 30 isn't going to kill me, all three of those are in stock and are from 320-400 which I feel is fair for those 1440p

How do you feel about the GIGABYTE G27QC

[visual pilot]

quite a bit worse

[teal fulcrum]

Out of the M27Q and the MAG272CQR you'd pick the M27Q

[visual pilot]

VA instead of IPS, meaning worse colors, and iirc some ghosting issues on g27qc

Yea

[teal fulcrum]

Okay sounds good, do they make a M27Q in curved or only straight

I currently have a 27 curved msi and will run that will the M27Q with it until I by a second and not sure how a curved and flat would work together

[visual pilot]

only flat

[teal fulcrum]

Think i would notice much of a difference with a curved and flat next to each other

[dusty shale]

With a 1500r possibly

[teal fulcrum]

My current monitor is a 1500r

[dusty shale]

it depends on you personal tolerances, i can tell the difference between a flat and 1800r and a glance

[teal fulcrum]

The M27Q will be my main gaming monitor and the 1500r will be my secondary until I buy a second M27Q

[crimson compass]

whats a really good budge friendly monitor that is good for an GTX 970

maybe like 200-400

[spring sequoia]

@crimson compass any panel preference or size?

[fading wyvern]

@crimson compass I’d look at the “LG 27GL650F-B” it’s 1080p ips and $299 +LG makes great panels 👍 *and 27”

[charred rain]

why buy a second 144hz monitor?

buy a second one 60hz

[crude galleon]

what is the best 34 or 32 inch 1440p 144hz monitor that has g syinc and is ips or va

[dusty shale]

^do you need the gsync chip for some reason?

[wintry loom]

guys

what is your opinion on samsung's 24" 75hz monitor?

[dusty shale]

Model #?

[wintry loom]

samsung only has one 75hz 24 inch monitor

for some reason

but its S and a bunch of numbers

[dusty shale]

Copy and paste

[wintry loom]

.

lemme get it

S24D332

there

[dusty shale]

I found 3 with a google search

[wintry loom]

S24D332

[dusty shale]

Thank you

I would get a different panel, it’s TN and has almost no reviews. For under $150 there’s better options as well.

[stray drift]

Anyone know any good gaming monitors for about $200?

[visual pilot]

[sage trail]

the movie with the context of the show was honestly better than the show imo

[visual pilot]

NO

[sage trail]

as a standalone it was just ok

[visual pilot]

I like show better than movie :P

[sage trail]

not saying the show was bad i really liked it

[visual pilot]

heh

[covert solstice]

show plot was kinda wacky for me

[visual pilot]

wdym

[sage trail]

the "with the context of" part is important

[visual pilot]

movie plot was harder :P

[covert solstice]

i mean movie rip

[visual pilot]

yea movie plot bit weird

had to ask ghosty for help

[sage trail]

[sage trail]

[visual pilot]

ikr

[fading wyvern]

👀 looking for displays; finding anime instead

[sage trail]

honestly dont know what else you were expecting to find here

this is an anime server after all

Yep, converting one channel at a time

Ew, aio desktops are terrible

I used to work at a repair shop and one day a dude came in with his aio desktop. The entire thing had melted

[fading wyvern]

But a micro atx with custom loops and a 120 rad

🤔

[celest lark]

uhhhhhhh I just did my cable management and now I just replugged all my monitors and one of the old ones is now set to 1280x960 when it wasn't like that before and I don't see a option to change it

help

[eternal torrent]

Have you already looked into your display settings and checked the listed resolutions?

[celest lark]

thats all I got

this is the entire thing

[fading wyvern]

Have you tried turning it on and off again

[celest lark]

just did that

nothin

[eternal torrent]

Uh, I've never done stuff with DisplayPort so I'll probably be useless

[fading wyvern]

Try switching dp ports or switch the cables on your monitors, was hoping weary had the answer tbh

[west knot]

peripherals is now an audiophile channel, and display becomes anime channel. I like where this is going

[visual pilot]

Peripherals has always been audiophile and keyboard channel

[celest lark]

switching ports actually worked

[maiden wedge]

Dynamic Super Resolution

Does b&h have a good monitor policy for returns and dead pixels?

[marble sluice]

i only have jrgb headers anyway i can control the rgb with a software

[stuck mulch]

Are there any recommended brands or brands to avoid for a cheap monitor? I'm looking at getting a 23-27" IPS for gaming/video. 144Hz isn't important because I can't run games well enough to use it, and 1080p quality is fine. Don't need anything spectacular, but don't wanna buy garbage.

[dusty shale]

Dont base it off of brands, just model #s
And what is the budget

[stuck mulch]

I think what I'm looking for should be easily under $200 and probably even cheaper, but since I don't know for certain, I'll just say $200 max.

[dusty shale]

https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1545192-REG/asus_va24ehe_23_8_wide_16_9_ips.html

[stuck mulch]

I just need something passable. I don't really care if the blacks aren't true black, as long as they're not brown or something. I'll probably be upgrading to something higher end within a year or two.

[dusty shale]

Important to note, theres many monitors in this price range so there may be ones with better features at the same cost or still within budget, but im not interested in comparing over 100 monitors

[stuck mulch]

Yeah. I'm not concerned with features. I just want it to not be garbage build quality and decent to look at. Thanks for the link

[rotund thorn]

Still debating a 2k montior looking for one to watch crypto trading charts side by side, and play games ips... been recommended the

gigabyte m27 170hz 1140p kvm with ips

Also looking at
msi optix MAG341CQ

Lg 32GK650F-B

And
Hp 27xq

[dusty shale]

What specs are most important to you in a monitor?

[rotund thorn]

Over 70hz most likely, (never had anything but basic hz)
I have a dual 1080ti desktop that I use to mine crypto and trade... mainly trade so something easy on the eyes that won't bog down my mining... and side by side screen or 1 big one for coding

I guess ips, screens that can be side by side and something visually pleasing

[dusty shale]

I would discard the 650 due to pixel density and your desire for clear text.

[fading wyvern]

M27 gogogo

[dusty shale]

but tn

wait

wrong one

[fading wyvern]

I’m a LG fan boy also though

The panels they are putting out are just

[rotund thorn]

Geek squad best buy person said LG is the shit, others say gigabyte

[dusty shale]

Is 1440p 70+hz the only requirements? and do you want a 21:9?

[rotund thorn]

I heard 21:9 makes some games weird or doesn't work appropriately

[dusty shale]

Some games, its great for third person, and sight seeing games though

[fading wyvern]

I have a hard time multitasking on one also for some weird reason

I think the safe bet tbh is the LG... is m27 using a lg panel?

[visual pilot]

It does very well in testing, dunno who the OEM was

[dusty shale]

LG is low PPI, bad for text

[visual pilot]

hw unboxed did a review

[rotund thorn]

Mainly coding and trading... does 2 screens work better?
Currently just playing starwars Rouge soo fast paced flying
Mr1111 recommended the m27 just waiting for it to go on sale or see whats upcoming, or if 2 screens is better

[visual pilot]

yea hw unboxed says M27q is using a new IPS panel from sharp

not lg

[dusty shale]

I would say the mag or m27, with the m27 being brighter and more vibrant and the mag being a wide screen but not good in bright areas at only 250nts, though it does have better contrast. Also the M27 is $120 cheaper on b&h

[fading wyvern]

I wasn’t really looking at the model Jeffrey is completely correct. The m27 is nice.

The lg I was thinking of was the LG 27GL83A-B

[dusty shale]

Those who know more about the monitor market, when do you think something like the 27gn950 will make its way to ultrawides for a similar price?

[rotund thorn]

Would a stock chart look odd on a 34" like it does on a iPad,
and 27" would look more uniform?

[visual pilot]

Like, in terms of Pixels Per Inch?

27 inch 1440p 16:9 panel has better PPI than
32 inch 1440p 16:9 panel

[fading wyvern]

Gamers and professionals agree 27 inch 1440p is the sweet spot of PPI

[rotund thorn]

Cool, so if there's a 2nd monitor going to be attached does any other monitor work or is it like sceptre where it sucks at connecting with other things like ipads and dual monitors

[fading wyvern]

As long as you have the proper ports on the monitor/pc which you should it’ll probably work just fine

[errant meadow]

suggestions for a monitor under 170$ it will just be used for chat

[fading wyvern]

ASUS VA24DQ 120$ 75hz 24inch IPS 1080p

Or if you wanna be a gamer with gamer accents AOC 24G2 for 180$ 😎

[idle cliff]

can someone please help me out

i have 2 monitors and went to unplug one for cable mangment and now my pc isnt detecting the other monitor

but the monitor perfectly works

[fading wyvern]

Start yanking cables and plugging em in again on both sides

If that doesn’t work 🤷‍♂️

[idle cliff]

ok thanks i will give it a try

didnt work

i think my mini dp adapter must have been on its last life

[timid rock]

Quiestion

Question

[worthy oak]

Yea?

[wispy horizon]

hi everyone i just recently picked up a Odyssey G9 monitor and curious if anyone could help me out with configuring its settings to what would be ideally best 😄

[tame swallow]

What gpu @civic oar

You want 1440p or 1080p?

Preferred refresh rate?

[signal spindle]

So before I purchase the Gigabyte M27Q is there a "better" monitor price/performance wise that I should be looking at or considering?

[rotund thorn]

Back again still debating the monitor...
I mine crypto, code and trade stocks

Stuck between
Gigabyte m27q
And
Samsung U28E590D 28-Inch 4k UHD
Samsung u32j590 UHD
And
Msi optix mag34

Never had a higher hz comp then 60hz and never had a 4k screen, not used heavily for gaming mainly for code and trading stocks on dual 1080ti desktop
If hz isn't a particular need just something I can stair at all day and enjoy it what would be best

Not sure what the difference between m27q and g27q are besides hz
Not sure if higher hz is necessary if I mainly trade crypto

[maiden wedge]

So since new eggs Twitter is pointless and was led to here:
My HDMI cable won’t connect to my monitor. Everything is plugged in and still nothing. What else can I try.

[river edge]

Neweggs twitter isn't for troubleshooting, it's for returns, etc lol

WDYM won't connect?

[maiden wedge]

It won’t connect as in it says no HDMI when plugged in.

[river edge]

Plugged into GPU or motherboard?

And is this a new graphics card, complete new build or ?

[maiden wedge]

No, about 2 years.

And higher up, so I guess GPU

[sage trail]

you guess?

the gpu has physical ports on it

the cable goes right into them

because when i think of "higher up" that makes me think you have it plugged into the motherboard

assuming a typical vertical motherboard mounting orientation

[edgy plover]

Ah yes the old plugged into the motherboard trick

[river edge]

yeah, they're helping in General so I bailed

That's exactly what it looks like except gpu is DP only and not HDMI

[maiden wedge]

I would have no idea, I’m not a computer geek.

[sage trail]

so an HDMI to DP would solve the problem, or if the monitor supports it, just a DP cable

[river edge]

Yep

[mossy kindle]

have u seen new gigabyte monitor guys

240 2k ips

hz

[light bay]

hey guys can someone tell me if the ASUS tuf gaming VG27AQ is any good for gamikng and such?

https://www.amazon.co.uk/ASUS-Gaming-VG27AQ-Monitor-Adaptive-Sync/dp/B07VTPKCLS/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3JVBWQ4U3HU1A&dchild=1&keywords=asus+tuf+monitor&qid=1610574627&sprefix=asus+tuf%2Caps%2C164&sr=8-1

this one

[fading wyvern]

Seems great especially if you have a good gpu

[dusty shale]

Its fine, dont buy it for HDR, There are some Displays with 10bit in that price range such as the VG27AQL1A which may be more appealing to you as it gets rid of color banding. The XG270Q monitor may also be a option for you with 8bit+FRC.

[light bay]

yeah i will be getting a brand new PC in june hopefully maybe a 3090 or 3070 depends on my budget at the time

[light bay]

is that one curved monitor?

[dusty shale]

What one?

Just google it

[light bay]

Just another question I’m giving my dad my iMac 2017 5K display is the display on the gaming monitors better then the screen on@the iMac 5K

[trail sparrow]

no

[dusty shale]

^

[trail sparrow]

almost nothing is better than that display

[dusty shale]

Well...

[trail sparrow]

nothing under $2k

[light bay]

Are the MacBook Pro’s have good screen the 2020 edition?

M1

Is there ways that the gaming monitor above is better then the iMac 5K ?

[dusty shale]

refresh rate

[light bay]

1ms

HZ

[dusty shale]

response time is ms, refresh is hz

[light bay]

165Hz is that good

[trail sparrow]

yeah its decent

[light bay]

Cool

[trail sparrow]

think of the mac as the best picture quality but slow, and the gaming display as worse picture but better for gaming

mac designed for content creation so the screen specializes on that

gaming display is designed to refresh a bunch of times per second

so it specializes in that

[light bay]

Yeah but the gaming display has 2560x 1440p resolution? Is that good

[dusty shale]

yes

[light bay]

Will it look good for playing games and watching content?

[trail sparrow]

yes

[dusty shale]

absolutely

[light bay]

And has HDR too another bonus

[dusty shale]

dont think of it as HDR

[trail sparrow]

apple displays are just best in class

[light bay]

Yeah

[dusty shale]

That may be too much of an overall statement, theyre good, but not best

[trail sparrow]

literally the best display on an AIO

[dusty shale]

Definitely for an AIO

[trail sparrow]

which is what we're talking abt

[light bay]

I hear from CES 2021 they bringing more displays with better connectivity?

From LG

[dusty shale]

LG has some displays coming, but who knows if theyll be in stock

[trail sparrow]

lg makes all the good panels

[light bay]

What about ASUS have they announced any new@monitors coming ?

[dusty shale]

some, VG28UQL1A seems to be the only for gaming.

could not be the only though, CES continues tomorrow

[light bay]

Yeah nice monitor interesting to see the specs of it when they come out goodnight guys

[viscid spindle]

I have the 1080p version of that monitor you posted I think, lol

[white glen]

So...what happened to all of the Samsung Odyssey G9? Is Samsung dealing with QC issues...one can hope. Any other 32:9 gaming monitors coming up to look out for? Thanks

[dusty shale]

CES doesnt seem to have any 32:9 monitors, but maybe i missed them. What is your use case for the monitor?

[light bay]

oh you do?

[viscid spindle]

close, I have a VG278QR

if not the same brand/feature set, close lol

[light bay]

that monitor isnt 2560x1440p tho?

[viscid spindle]

like I said, 1080p version

[light bay]

yeah

[viscid spindle]

also not ips

[light bay]

not ips

its got some decnt specs to it tho

such as 165fz and freesync

[viscid spindle]

yeah I wanted high refresh rate 1080p and it does alright

kinda want the same thing but 2k next lol

[light bay]

yeah its decent monitor

[light bay]

yeah

[white glen]

I currently and routinely eyeifinity my two 27in 5120x1440p together for a lot of 2 player split screens. Was hoping for a single screen to do this and love that the 32:9 fits my desk setup. Wish it was becoming a more popular aspect ratio. Thanks for the response.

[light bay]

whats the VG279Q is thast the upgraded version?

i currently have 2 1080p monitors for streaming and i think going to a VG27AQ will ber a big upgrade

[wispy horizon]

anyone help me with figuring out how to stop flickering issue sometimes with my samsung G9 monitor. not sure if i just need to change a setting or if its certain games i play

[dusty shale]

Possibly a firmware update

should be able to get it from the samsung website.

[wispy horizon]

Yep I did the latest of that @dusty shale

[dusty shale]

When does the flickering happen?

[azure hollow]

https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1616841-REG/asus_vg34vql1b_34_wqhd_curved_hdr.html

is this any good?

please ping :)

[fading wyvern]

The grey to grey is a tiny bit slow but for 300$ it seems like a great screen overall. A ultra wide at 165hz? Dang. Might wanna upgrade to a 2080 or new 3000 series gpu before you go in on it though.

[azure hollow]

Shoot

i have a 2060

[fading wyvern]

What kinda games do you play?

[azure hollow]

Uhhhh

as of late

cyberpunk, tabletop, and stellaris

[fading wyvern]

You’d have a bad time with cyberpunk 100% and you’d be able to play plenty of esport titles

[azure hollow]

Couldnt i just turn down the refresh rate for cyberpunk?

or just skip the monitor for now

[fading wyvern]

You’d have to turn down your resolution in game

[azure hollow]

true

should i just not get it

[fading wyvern]

It’s up to you

[azure hollow]

hmmm

im not rly gonna be able to upgrade gpu anytime soon

[fading wyvern]

Your cpu would also be a tiny bottleneck

[azure hollow]

True

[fading wyvern]

Skip out on it for now but it seems like a cool 300$ display

[azure hollow]

such a good deal

for what it is

[fading wyvern]

Well it’s also a VA panel which is part of why it’s super cheap

[azure hollow]

but i am 100% not getting it lol

ips is the good stuff right?

[fading wyvern]

Yeah or oled if it ever comes out (on a monitor)

[azure hollow]

oled would be EXPENSIVE would it not?

[fading wyvern]

Oh yeah hella expensive the closest “monitor” we have right now is a OLED48CXPUB

wtf man

no vesa mount smh

just tape a bunch if samsung phones together

[fading wyvern]

Eh still 1ms gtg 4K 120hz and hdmi 2.1

Things a beautiful beast

[azure hollow]

think i saw a review on it

seemed p cool

if only it wasnt worth so much

so is there any good monitors rn that are just good budget options

bc my samsung monitor has a 4ms response time, is 1080p and has 5 dead pixels and what seems to be a hair under the screen and im just done w it

[fading wyvern]

Just look for a 1080p 144hz ips option preferably 24inchs

[azure hollow]

Hmm alright

[fading wyvern]

Something like this if it was in stock https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07WVN6CWT/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_imm_t1_T8taGb1RZB0H4

[azure hollow]

god damnit why are screens so expensive

sceptre sponsor me please

i take that back

gigabyte first

anyways goodnight thanks for the advice

[rare crescent]

Hi does anyone know if the MSI Optix MAG274QRF-QD ships with a UK power converter or cable seeing as it ships from the US?

[dusty shale]

it doesn't seem to ship with a UK plug, but your website that you see it on may be different.

[rare crescent]

Cheers mate, will just have to figure out a solution then.

[maiden wedge]

Yo

[wary wedge]

What’s a good budget 144 hz display? Preferably $150 - $200

[mighty tide]

AOC might still have it, its 150 bucks or so I thibk

How much would like a crappy second monitor cost? Just for like discord and stuff etc

[wispy horizon]

sorry replied late, when switching games mainly.

[dusty shale]

Thats normal, when exiting full screen mode, monitors usually flicker, if it happens outside of going between full screen and not that is an issue

[steel mountain]

@maiden wedge

[maiden wedge]

[wary wedge]

Not anymore sadly

[mighty tide]

dang dude sorry

that thing was a STEAL

[wary wedge]

Yeah, I saw it for $145

BUT I HAD NO MONEY TRANSFERRED TO MY CARD YET

But thanks again

[eternal gale]

whats a good 2 monitor vesa mount?

[mint moth]

I'm looking for a wireless monitor that is 27" or less. Really good picture quality, built in speakers.

[covert solstice]

wireless?

[river edge]

[dusty shale]

Get a normal monitor and buy a wireless HDMI cable

“Cable”

[mint moth]

Is there such a thing? How does this work?

[dusty shale]

Wireless HD Transmitter and Receiver Wireless HD Extender Wireless HD Sender 2.4G/5.8G up to 100M/330FT HDMI Wireless Audio Video for HD TV/Projector Maybe delay https://www.amazon.com/dp/B088BK5GQ6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glc_fabc_cp1aGbNN1ZKFD?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
I don’t look much into them so find reviews of a good one, I just picked the first result.

[mint moth]

I take it these are the same type of thing to hook a computer up to the internet when that room isn't set up for it?

[river edge]

Reviews for that are terrible

basically it doesn't work

[dusty shale]

^ look around for a better one, and it does work similarly to WiFi.

[river edge]

I looked up a better brand, reviews for that were hit and miss also

Seems like a not so good technology yet

[mint moth]

Well, with the price of them, I might as well just get a monitor with the capability.

[desert fable]

My friend is getting a pc with a 3070 and wants a monitor around 300-400 for it that also works with his ps5

[desert fable]

Basically a 1440 144hz 27 inch ips not curved

[dusty shale]

VX2758-2KP-MHD

or BenQ EX2780Q
@desert fable

[desert fable]

I found this one for him

https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16824012018

[dusty shale]

Thats good, but one issue would be that its only 8bit which color banding is still a noticable issue, with 10bit the problem mostly goes away

[desert fable]

Ik I saw that

[opal sinew]

LG 32GK650F-B 32 it's a 32 inch and I have it. Works with gysnc and is a really good panel for 300

it's a VA panel but games look good and play with pretty much no lag. Really nice monitor for the money

I paid 299 for it at microcenter

it's a really good monitor. Worth the money

[severe flare]

having some problems with a monitor, anyone free to help me out?

[dusty shale]

whats up? @severe flare

[severe flare]

so i’m using an old 22 inch acer monitor with my new pc until I get a new monitor and I have verified that both the cable and the monitor work by plugging them into a different system but when I plug them into this pc it just flickers on and off and when I try to set it to the proper resolution it says no signal

even when it’s on the default resolution it just flickers on and off and eventually just stays off

[dusty shale]

What is the GPU? And I assume that the problem doesn't happen outside of this PC.

[severe flare]

it’s a gigabyte directx 1660 super

and that is correct

if you need a video I can provide one

[dusty shale]

What is your CPU?

[severe flare]

it’s my name on discord

[dusty shale]

lmao

Have you tried another cable to connect the GPU to the monitor?

[severe flare]

yep

same problem

I also have an identical monitor and that also does the same thing

[fading wyvern]

That answers that

Do you have any other monitors?

[severe flare]

I have an old tv that i’ve been using temporarily

[dusty shale]

Make sure your GPU drivers are up to date

[severe flare]

so I still have access to the pc

[fading wyvern]

But the tv works fine?

[severe flare]

I just made sure of that a few minutes ago

and yes

[dusty shale]

Im thinking that you might want to reseat the GPU if the monitor and cable arent the issue. And if it persists you may have a faulty card

[fading wyvern]

^i agree with that. I’ve also sometimes experienced bad Nvidia g sync compatibility issues... I doubt those monitors are free sync though

[severe flare]

it’s just an old acer monitor the x233h I believe

I doubt it would have any types of adaptive sync

and also i’ve noticed that in bios the problem doesn’t exist it’s just when I get into windows

[river edge]

That means it's a driver issue

Boot to safe mode, uninstall GPU

In Device Manager

[severe flare]

and should I reinstall the driver using geforce experience?

[river edge]

Well

Try it without a driver first

If it boots to safe mode with no drive and a good picture

You'll know it was the driver

[severe flare]

okay i’ll let you know how it goes

[open vapor]

anyone know any dual monitor mounts that can stack a 32inch and 27inch

[dusty shale]

no, but its usually best to just get two seperate arms to avoid sage

[open vapor]

yea ive seen alot of those but most just fits 2 27inch monitors stacked

unless i find one with an extended stand

[severe flare]

@river edge the problem persists

[river edge]

In safe mode or ?

[severe flare]

imma boot into safe mode again

yep still not working in safe mode

[dusty shale]

Reseat GPU?

[river edge]

Yeah, GPU faulty, no power, or needs to be reseated

[severe flare]

okay, i’ll try reseating it

still the same problem

[dusty shale]

contact for RMA

[severe flare]

yeah imma just start fresh with a new gpu

thanks for all the help guys

MONITOR|AOC|C24G1|24"|GAMING/CURVED|PANEL VA|1920X1080|16:9|144HZ|1 MS|SWIVEL|HEIGHT ADJUSTABLE|TILT is this also a decent monitor?

[fading wyvern]

sure

[left peak]

recomendation of wide monitor please 32

[near junco]

Does anyone have a rec for a rx 5600xt? I want 1080p, do you think i could push the refresh to 144 Hz on modern titles (AC odyssey, metro exodus...)?

[visual pilot]

lower some settings and you can take advantage of 144hz

[dusty shale]

What are you doing with your monitor? What is the budget?

[median mantle]

Looking for a good 32" 4K monitor with a high refresh rate.

Any suggestions?

[maiden wedge]

Majority of 4K monitors are only 60hz .

New 4k monitors should come out this year that support higher refresh rates above 60hz and have hdmi 2.1 ports .

[dusty shale]

Budget?

[median mantle]

Any budget

I'm Bryce

I might just stay with 1440P for now then.

[opal sinew]

1440p is good for awhile. Get one now for upgrade in 3 years. By then good 4k monitors will be standard...IMO

[dusty shale]

PA32UCX-PK then, hopefully they’re in stock somewhere

But if 27” is fine get 27gn950 or 27gp950 (this one isn’t out yet)

[lean compass]

what do people think of the. ASUS ROG Swift PG329Q im thinking of upgrading to it from my old 6 year old acer g277hu

or can i get another ips monitor thats 32 to 36 inch. i have a budget of 800 gbp witch is 1088 usd

[dusty shale]

I haven't found any reviews but it is a good monitor specs wise
And what are you doing with the monitor?

[lean compass]

im gaming. but i also watch a lotta films. so i want something thats great at doing them both

i was going to get an lg gn950. or was it the gl950. i forgotten, but its out of stock and it dosnt seem like its coming back anytime soon

and since looking for something else other then the lg. i deiced that i would like an ultra wide

ive looked at the g7 but the curve is crazy

[dusty shale]

Would you rather have a UW over a standard size?

[lean compass]

i dont want a super UW. just something thats bigger then my old 27 inch. like 35 inch or something in that area

i was gonna go with a dual monitor set up with the lg. but then someone said i might as well get an ultra wide. so i dont have to deal with bezels in the middle

[dusty shale]

If you want a 16:9 monitor then i would get the 329Q or the 27gn950, there is also the 27gp950 which is releasing this year (unsure on release date and price currently) If you are getting a ultra wide with similar specs it will most likely go over your budget.

[lean compass]

how much would it go out of my budget?

[dusty shale]

last i remember $500usd, but ill double check

[lean compass]

i got a 1000usd to spend

well dont have to spend it all

[dusty shale]

The Odyssey G7 isnt bad, many are fine with the curve.

[lean compass]

i never head a cured screen. and i feel like jumping to a monitor with such a curve like the g7 wouldnt be nice to get use to for a while

[dusty shale]

How close do you sit to your monitor?

[lean compass]

about am arm length away

[dusty shale]

how long is your arm?

[lean compass]

thats a good question X3

about 25 inches

[dusty shale]

It should be fine, but you might just not like a curved panel. maybe get one and try it out, if you don't like it you could return it.

[lean compass]

even if i use it? would amazon refund that?

[dusty shale]

amazon is very lenient, but i would look at their return policy in your area

[lean compass]

alrighty

what do you rock in your set up?

[dusty shale]

Im using a ED347CKR but im looking to upgrade soon, waiting for better priced UWs to come out

i really want a 27gn950 as a UW but dont know if i want to spend $1600 on a panel thats slightly worse

[lean compass]

i was after the 950 to. but when i got my money through it sold out. and since then i nibbled away at my overall budget

[dusty shale]

Yeah they went pretty quick after the 30 series came out, hopefully the 27gp950 has better stock

[lean compass]

yep. i dont know much about new and upcoming monitors at all

i spent ages looking for the right monitor for me. and then poof its gone

[dusty shale]

What GPU do you have?

[lean compass]

and then my second and third choices went after.

i have a 2080 gigabyte extreme

[dusty shale]

are you upgrading soon? because a 2080 cant run a 27gn950

[lean compass]

they cant run them at there fullest. but its a good for down the line. when 3080s are in stock

anythin would be better then my 50hrz acer rn. but i like getting the best i can thats out there. and keep it as long as i can

only looking for a new one since my monitor is dying. it has dead pixels and the bottom right corner is burnt out

[lusty wasp]

Is $380 too much for a good 1440p 144hz monitor?

[fading wyvern]

depends on what is "good" but yeah that's a pretty good price

[lusty wasp]

alright

I was just making sure that wasn't overpriced

[left peak]

VIOTEK GNV34CB 34.0" 2560x1080 100 Hz Monitor

how is this one ?

or cheeper one 32 🙂

[dusty shale]

Depends how close you sit to your monitor, some screen door effect may be visible.

What is your budget?

[left peak]

250-300

[dusty shale]

Do you have to have an ultrawide? they are very expensive with less features than a standard 16:9

if you are fine with 16:9 this would be a better monitor VX2758-2KP-MHD, but if you can get the 34CB for $300 and are fine with the screen door effect then that is a good deal.

[left peak]

the 34CB cost 1000USD

[dusty shale]

GNV34CB

[left peak]

didnt find any thing match

[dusty shale]

What do you mean?

[deep folio]

anyone notice that all asus 30 series have dissapeared?

look at asus store?

why is this?

[dusty shale]

This is displays

lol

[trail sparrow]

his display is not showing him the asus 30 series cards

[dusty shale]

oh no

[deep folio]

wait what

so i just cant buy them anymore?

[lean compass]

hey @dusty shale you know yesterday i was looking for help. what would you say about a MSI Optix MPG341CQRV?

also sorry for just butting in

[dusty shale]

Its good, but i would get the MPG341CQR (Theres no V) it has a slightly higher refresh rate, other than that it should cost almost the same and perform the same as well.

[lean compass]

also why cant monitors have names like bob or bill. why dose it have to be a kid hitting random letters on a keyboard X3

and i think i meant the monitor you suggested. the one that has the light bars at the front

[lean compass]

do you know if any new and upcoming monitors are gonna be good?

[dusty shale]

Don't post in multiple chats, this is better suited for #graphics-cards

[dusty shale]

This one caught my eye, PA148CTV, as well as Acers XB323QK NV, and obviously the 27gp950.

[prime anchor]

Thank you, will delete my posts.

[astral trellis]

i've gone through all the possible resolutions that windows gives me the option for and none of them fit my current monitor ;-;

it was working fine before

but then i noticed that it was the to 1336x668 or smth when the monitor is 1080p

[dusty shale]

Are your drivers up to date?

[astral trellis]

just updated them now, yes

[dusty shale]

Does windows let you change the settings?

[astral trellis]

yes, just none of them are the right one, even the "reccomended" one

[dusty shale]

What GPU?

[astral trellis]

gtx 1060

about 4 years old now i think

just it was working fine before i tried changing the resolution

basically where discord is, thats what i can see

and most of the taskbar is cut off as well

[dusty shale]

right click desktop>Nvidia control panel>Change resolution>see if it exists there first, then click customize if it doesn't

Does it exist under resolution?

[astral trellis]

yep, got it working thanks

it was the same one that it was already set to, i just set it to a diff resolution thenback and it magically worked ;-;

[dusty shale]

lol, windows is wack sometimes.

[astral trellis]

windows do be wack sometimes indeed

[lean compass]

@dusty shale PA148CTV what? when i search for it it brings up charger cables and 27gp950 brings up nothing for me

[dusty shale]

the 27gp950 is the 27gn950's successor. And heres the other one. https://www.asus.com/Displays-Desktops/Monitors/ProArt-/ProArt-Display-PA148CTV/

[lean compass]

ah

and a 14 inch asus pro art?

[dusty shale]

yeah, its a bit different, i like it.

[lean compass]

i would prefer if it was another 20 more inches lol. but that would make a good screen to go under a monitor bit like having a laptop front of your main screen

[dusty shale]

lmao, a think a 34" touch pad is a bit much lol.

[lean compass]

nah itll be fine

[maiden wedge]

HI guys, What do you thing what's best monitor for gaming and video editing under 600 Euro?

[dusty shale]

What do you do more, video editing or gaming?

[maiden wedge]

gaming

[dusty shale]

What Graphics card do you have?

[maiden wedge]

Nvidia rtx 3070

[dusty shale]

How much is the Odyssey G7 in your area?

[dapper ether]

what monitor do you guys think is worth getting with a 3060 ti?

that isn't over $350 (preferably)

[visual pilot]

Gigabyte M27q

Should still be 330$ best buy or b&h

[dark condor]

does asus tuf monitors go on sale regularly cause i saw one on sale for $200 instead of $300 and it was 144hz does that happen often?

[dusty shale]

we dont know

[dark condor]

k

[maiden wedge]

@dusty shale around 700Euro

[dusty shale]

XG270Q is a good option then if it is available where you are. @maiden wedge

[iron dragon]

hey i just got an hp elitescreen e221 is it worth it to go from 60 to 70 hz in nvidea control pannel?

[maiden wedge]

@dusty shale thx, bro

[dusty shale]

np

[dusty shale]

Are you talking about monitor Overclocking? if so its fine but usually it results in the panel performing worse than its spec (other than refresh rate), it is possible to damage the monitor by overclocking as well.

[iron dragon]

ok

[gray marsh]

what spec monitor can a 5600x and 3070 realistically run with?

[dusty shale]

1440p 144Hz in most instances. What is you use case?

[gray marsh]

not a serious gamer

but I'd like to play without too low frame rates

so 60+fps is preferred

[dusty shale]

What i recommended is good then, would you like me to pick out a monitor for you?

[gray marsh]

sure

[dusty shale]

budget?

[gray marsh]

also if its on the cheaper side that'd be nice

prolly $350 max

unless that's actually too little

then I'd have to wait a bit more

but I could stretch $400

[dusty shale]

VX2758-2KP-MHD maybe?

[gray marsh]

I will keep that in mind

thank you

[dusty shale]

np

[fiery slate]

weird issue

need helps from a guru

So I have a high refresh display. trying to figure out this issue

on facebook on chrome, on microsoft edge this is not the case, the screen flickers a bit between items I can click on and it changed the color dynamic, lightening/darkening the screen and it concerns me

[dusty shale]

what monitor is it?

[fiery slate]

HP Omen 27x, 1440p 240hz

My wife's samsung monitor does not do this, is this a monitor issue?

hers is on a different computer though

[dusty shale]

it could be a panel issue, Are your drivers up to date?

[fiery slate]

to be far

fair

how do you update drivers for a monitor?

[dusty shale]

GPU drivers

[fiery slate]

Ahh. to be fair my graphics card just died I am running off the Intel chip rn

[dusty shale]

that sucks, that your 3090 is dead. hopefully they have a replacement for you.

[fiery slate]

They are RMA'ing it and said that it would ship within 48 hours of being recieved

we did a thorough check, my 2080ti that i put in my wife's machine worked just fine in the PCIE slot, but the slot stopped identifying the 3090

[dusty shale]

for your monitor i would lower the refresh to 144Hz to see if the problem goes away

[fiery slate]

dropped it to 60hz

the intel chip cannot handle 240hz

and its still there

this is the first time I have seen this and it's only on chrome

it's like its auto contrasting on dark colors?

only when i go really fast

[dusty shale]

Some say that disabling hardware acceleration in google settings will fix the issue.

[fiery slate]

dang that worked

ok!

thank you so much I thought something was up!

[dusty shale]

np

[fiery slate]

was like "Crap, everything is going out"

[dusty shale]

Lol, I know that feeling, It’s scary.

[trail sparrow]

@fiery slate be sure not to play halo lol

[fiery slate]

?

why is that

[trail sparrow]

it pops 3090s

[fiery slate]

pops?

[steel mountain]

A 1080p 24in monitor basically the same as a 1440p monitor right?

[dusty shale]

No? Explain the question.

[real osprey]

As in pixel density?

[astral trellis]

actually, yea how different is a 1080p 24" to a 1440p 27" in terms of pixel denisty

and like, how different they look

[fading wyvern]

^

[astral trellis]

hm so it would look better

but a 24" 1440 would look better than a 27" cause higher density

cause i found this on kijiji

https://www.kijiji.ca/v-monitors/city-of-toronto/1440p-24-inch-165hz-144hz-g-sync-1-ms-monitor/1537476354

but then i found this for a 27" option

https://www.kijiji.ca/v-monitors/oshawa-durham-region/viewsonic-vx2768-2kpc-mhd-1440p-144hz-freesync-gaming-monitor/1545383482

$40 cheaper

CAD btw ^^

[trail sparrow]

i just use the retina calculator lol

https://www.designcompaniesranked.com/resources/is-this-retina/

hehe yea babey

[maiden wedge]

Stop making me jealous

[steel mountain]

Yea

[rich badger]

what’s the difference between a VA and IPS panel?

[maiden wedge]

looking for a 1440p 144hz, 32" IPS

any recommendations?

[dusty shale]

budget and use case?

[dusty shale]

Panel technology, IPS is usually more vibrant, VA has better contrast.
Although i have not watched this video i trust HU to explain it well enough.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1BM0P7J1EPM

[river edge]

I have an IPS and VA side by side

I can confirm

[maiden wedge]

budget, anywhere under 1000$
use case, E v e r y c a s e, i game and also am artsy, i use krita

[visual pilot]

M27q

mua ha ha ha

[rich badger]

which one looks better overall?

[visual pilot]

@maiden wedge use the M27q at 330$ for a baseline for whatever you'll get

great colors, 170hz (doesn't matter above 144 but whatever), and cheap

[dusty shale]

many say IPS because of the vibrancy

[maiden wedge]

im looking for 32 inch or greater, as im coming from a 39 inch 1080p

[visual pilot]

also on best buy and b&h
https://www.amazon.com/Gigabyte-Monitor-Display-Response-FreeSync/dp/B08JWCHR5N/

bruh

how far you sit from display

[maiden wedge]

like 3-4 foot

im on it because its literally just an old TV and all i had

[visual pilot]

I mean I sit like

one feet away from monitor, and 24in looks nice

[maiden wedge]

if i were to set closer...i would be inside my desk

my desk has a keyboad tray

[visual pilot]

inside you go

[maiden wedge]

i become one with the d e s k

[visual pilot]

anyways that's sad tbh

I M27q doesn't have 32in version

[maiden wedge]

32 inches is so neglected

[visual pilot]

Not really

it's just only bad panels, because good panels good pixel density

:P

[dusty shale]

ROG Swift PG329Q
I would recommend this monitor as i can verify it is a 10bit panel which should help with the photo editing portion. I do believe there would be better monitors outside of your specification

and it has some entry level HDR function if you are interested

[maiden wedge]

32" and up, 1440p+ IPS is my main specifications im looking for

[dusty shale]

So you can go above 1440p?

[maiden wedge]

im mostly going to do 1440p but if its 4k thats even better

[dusty shale]

ROG Swift PG329Q $700
PA329C $1100
This is what i came up with, outside of your spec the 27GN950 ($800) would be a great panel as well but it does drop to 8bit+FRC which isnt great if color is important.

The major changes are the ppi and color gamut so think of those for your graphical aspect of the monitor

[astral trellis]

ngl i dont think i've ever owned an ips monitor

i think i've got a tn and a va rn

[steel mountain]

is this monitor good? https://www.bestbuy.com/site/gigabyte-27-ips-led-qhd-freesync-monitor-with-kvm-hdmi-displayport-usb-black/6438287.p?skuId=6438287

[dusty shale]

Yes

but what is the budget and use case?

[jagged forge]

Looking for a monitor purely for gaming, was wondering whether y'all think 1080p-24in in or 1440p-27in in would be a better buy if I manage to snag a 3060/ AMD equivalent

[dusty shale]

Probably get a 1440p monitor

but what would the budget be?

[jagged forge]

Like $300 tops

mayb $350

[dusty shale]

get a 1440p then

[jagged forge]

oh word what's your thought process

[dusty shale]

for choosing 1440p? The GPU is powerful enough (based on the ampere lineup*)

[jagged forge]

okay thanks dawg, I think I just needed some affirmation to pull the trigger

[maiden wedge]

anyone know a good, cheap vertical monitor? 60hz is fine

[sage trail]

check facebook marketplace

or craigslist

[dusty shale]

Many can be rotated vertically, what is your budget and use case?

[maiden wedge]

budget:120 use: stream/discord. i have a small desk so 2 monitors horizontally wouldnt fit that well so im resorting to one horizontal and the other vertical

who can help me with monitors rn?

i got school in like an hour and it’s not connecting

[olive harness]

HEy all, having trouble identifying a G-Sync monitor and G-sync compatible. Im not looking for a compatible, i want true G-Sync. I got a AOC monitor like 5 years ago true G-Sync, but cant find an equivalent today...

is what i am looking for called adaptive sync?

[keen scarab]

Not sure about adaptive sync but this monitor is solid:

https://www.amazon.com/LG-27GL83A-B-Ultragear-Compatible-Monitor/dp/B07YGZL8XF/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1XSR8ZDVQRZBS&dchild=1&keywords=lg+ultragear&qid=1611325570&sprefix=lg+ultragear%2Caps%2C189&sr=8-1

[visual pilot]

@olive harness why do you want true g sync?

Because nowadays the only difference is features, decent g-sync compatible panels are performance wise pretty much true g-sync

And I dunno if aoc had any true g sync panels lel, true g sync pretty damn rare

@olive harness adaptive sync means freesync and g sync compatible

New "true" g sync got renamed to g-sync ultimate

[rich comet]

rn im on a 720p display that still uses vga cables, anyone know a good low price monitor 100hz 1080p or better?

What GPU do you have?

vx2758-2kp-mhd if you have a powerful enough GPU.

[dusty shale]

Nothing stands out to me for why it costs so much. Maybe get a M27q or VX2758-2KP-MHD

[light bay]

yeah but its a good size monitor and has hdr

good res too 2560x1440p

[dusty shale]

Did you look at the monitors I sent?

Also don’t consider that as hdr, it needs to have at-least 600nits for it to work as intended

Check this out on @Newegg: AXM 2779 27" WQHD 2560 x 1440 144Hz IPS Gaming Monitor, Adaptive-Sync (FreeSync Compatible), Height Adjustable Stand, Display Port2/ HDMI Port2, with speaker https://www.newegg.com/axm-2779-black/p/15Z-00MH-00011?Item=9SIAB9HBYJ0746&Source=socialshare&cm_mmc=snc-social-_-sr-_-9SIAB9HBYJ0746-_-01242021

Is this a decent brand in monitors or unknown?

[untold saffron]

I need help picking out a monitor based on my computer specs, anyone game?

Intel Core i5-9300H CPU @ 2.40GHz 2.40 GHz w/ GTX 1650

Can I run an ultrawide monitor efficiently?

For gaming purposes

[dusty shale]

maybe a 1080p ultra wide but you will usually run into the Screen door effect. I would get a 16:9 1080p monitor 24"

[untold saffron]

So stick with a 27" like I have now?

[dusty shale]

if you already have a 1080 monitor there is no need to upgrade

[untold saffron]

I promised this one to my son when he got his new laptop

so it's a good reason to get a new one

With these specs, is G-Sync worth it?

It seems to add another $100 to most monitors

[dusty shale]

Freesync works with Gsync, so Gsync is not nescessary. I would not get a Ultrawide as it wont be very impressive. For a 1650, a 1080p 16:9 24" monitor is usually the best fit.

[dusty shale]

I have never heard of them, but base the quality of the panel on professional reviews. If you give me budget, use case and spec requirements then i can find you a good monitor.

[untold saffron]

Under $300

Opps

thought you were talking to me

[dusty shale]

lol

[untold saffron]

thanks for the help

[dusty shale]

Ghosting is when a pixel needs to change color, but the monitor isn't fast enough to make that change causing a trailing ghosting effect where the pixel colors are inaccurate to what should be showed on screen. Inverse ghosting is the exact same thing but instead of maintaining the objects original color it changes to something opposite of its original, this is usually caused by the "overdrive" used in panels where they put more voltage in attempt to change quicker but end up causing the inverse ghosting effect.

PS: Discord is still the internet.

[dusty shale]

Can you explain what you mean by this? and what is your monitors model #

[maiden wedge]

@dusty shale yea I've been looking into a 1440p high refresh rate monitor for a laptop that I'm planning on buying and possibly the series x down the line, I'd say anywhere from $250-$350

It's just hard with it being compatible with the series x because of what it has

[dusty shale]

M27Q or VX2758-2KP-MHD (this panel has 8bit+FRC which helps gets rid of color banding)

And is there a compatibility issue with Xbox that i do not know about?

both of these monitors support HDMI 2.0 which supports 144hz 1440p if you are talking about the cable

[maiden wedge]

Yea I do know that hdmi 2.0 can carry it but the series x has some trouble recognizing that it can do both 1440p and 120hz, it can only sometimes recognize 1080p 120 or 1440p 60hz

I'll watch some reviews later, thanks I appreciate it 💯

[dusty shale]

That sucks, hopefully Microsoft fixes it.

[maiden wedge]

Frr

[next elbow]

Is the MSI Optix G271 any good?

[dusty shale]

it might be difficult to see in bright rooms and the screen door effect may be present do to the 27" screen size and only 1080p resolution. other than that it seems to get good marks.

[next elbow]

Ok, thanks

[versed python]

Hello

[errant summit]

Could you amazing people help me find a good affordable 24" 2k 140hz gaming monitor?

[versed python]

I need help one of my monitors is messed up and I don't know why. If someone could help me that would be great! I have an ASUS VS239. DM me for a picture...

[errant summit]

send it to me and ill post it here @versed python

i cant help though

[dusty shale]

budget?

[dusty shale]

What is the issue? is the image above the problem?

[errant summit]

yes

budget i guess is like under 300

if thats not possible then 350

[versed python]

@errant summit posted a picture of the problem

I couldn't

[dusty shale]

what is the issue?

[versed python]

I don't know

[errant summit]

His screen wonky

above image not wallpaper

thats just his screen

[versed python]

Yeah

It's not the wire or monitor

I wouldn't see why it would be the graphics card

[dusty shale]

Are your Graphics drivers up to date? and reseat the Display cable, and change ports on both the monitor and GPU

[errant summit]

how do you know its not the monitor?

[versed python]

This happened after my dad and I opened the computer up and cleaned it. We didn't touch the graphics cars

[dusty shale]

M27Q or VX2758-2KP-MHD

[versed python]

We moved the wire to another monitor and it did the same thing. But when I moved it to the other.Vs239 I have it was fine

[dusty shale]

Are your Graphics drivers up to date?

[errant summit]

those are both 27"

[versed python]

I believe they are

I have the Nvidia software and I just updated them like a week ago

[dusty shale]

your straight out of luck then, no 24" 1440p exist in your budget with that refreshrate.

[errant summit]

thats wild

shouldnt 24" be cheaper? i guess not because of density

my current 24" 1080p was cheaper than all the 27" ones i could find

[dusty shale]

What is your CPU?

[versed python]

I know it's an I5 but let me check the exact one

[errant summit]

does freesync work with nvidia?

[versed python]

i5-7400

[errant summit]

i know its amd

[dusty shale]

I would do DDU, and if that doesn't work then reseat the GPU.

[dusty shale]

It does natively.

[errant summit]

so i should be fine

my current monitor is a acer xfa240

i planned on doing dual monitors

thats why i wanted 24"

[dusty shale]

that is a 1080p monitor, you could get a lower res if you wanted

[errant summit]

i know its 1080p lol, thats why im upgrading

[nova cloud]

From what I’ve read you can use free sync with nvidia cards

I would think gsync is better tho but you can’t find it on budget monitors really

[river edge]

Yes, Freesync with nVidia cards

No need to pay hte premium for Gsync

[tardy basin]

Hey, anyone here?

[fading wyvern]

[rich comet]

I know im late, but something very similar happened between my xbox and tv. It turned out the hdmi cable wasn't good, and wasn't fitting quite properly in the port. Getting a new cable fixed the issue 100%. If this issue has already been solved sry, if this helps yw.

[patent timber]

I’m having a problem with my tvas I have it hooked up to my pc and it’s supposed to be 1080p but instead it’s 733p oddly enough

Does anyone have a solution?

[dusty shale]

Can you change it in windows display settings?

[steady kestrel]

Is there good wall mounted monitors around 150

[dusty shale]

theres not many wall mount only monitors, but you could get a monitor and a wall mounting kit

[steady kestrel]

Ok I’m just trying to find a monitor around 150

[dusty shale]

resolution and refreshrate?

[steady kestrel]

Idk im new to this I play Minecraft and valorant

And will probably use shaders

@dusty shale

[dusty shale]

I cant find a monitor with a professional review at that price range so here's a list of what fits your budget with room for a wall mount. They all support either VESA 75mm or 100mm

[warped quest]

do you know if the eye-care monitor is good for both gaming and working like they advertise

[dusty shale]

Chances are the eye care monitor part isnt anything more than marketing. What is the panel you are looking at? @warped quest

[trail sparrow]

tfw monitor with blue light filter turned on

[astral trellis]

which panel type is the one with bad color accuracy but no ghosting?

was cant remember if it was VA or TN

[river edge]

TN

VA is better, IPS is best

[astral trellis]

wait, really? va is better?

i thought the ghosting on VA was really bad

[river edge]

Na, I have one

No ghosting

[astral trellis]

oh ok

[river edge]

IPS and VA side by side

[visual pilot]

Ghost is a panel to panel issue

[astral trellis]

cause i was looking at buying this used

https://www.viewsonic.com/global/products/lcd/VX2768-2KPC-MHD

[visual pilot]

VA just has it more common

[river edge]

Color is better on IPS but VA is more bright IMO

[visual pilot]

Yea I think VA has better contrast than IPS

But there are a lot of bright IPS panels

[river edge]

It does

At least mine does

[dusty shale]

How much would you pay for that?

[astral trellis]

$360 CAD

on top of there being no tax

this is the cheapest one on amazon.ca

https://www.amazon.ca/AOC-CQ27G2-Computer-Gaming-Monitor/dp/B0862YHJ56/ref=sr_1_7?dchild=1&keywords=1440[+144hz+monitor&qid=1611686166&sr=8-7

comes to $400 with tax

o dam

just found a greaet one

https://www.acer.com/ac/en/CA/content/model/UM.HV1AA.P01

144hz, 1440, IPS, 1ms

for 400

used as well, so no tax

[dusty shale]

VX2758-2KP-MHD should cost about the same new.

[astral trellis]

CAD

[dusty shale]

yes

[astral trellis]

wot?

[dusty shale]

its $300 in the US

[astral trellis]

$407 on amazon.ca

with tax thats an extra $60

[spring sequoia]

Daang

[astral trellis]

the cheapest i can find that used monitor for new in canada is 600$

thats gotta be some sort of indicator of quality

[maiden wedge]

is it bad that i can see the lines of when my monitor refreshes

[dusty shale]

I would re-seat the Display cable.

[maiden wedge]

yea i did that already, woo

[errant gate]

Is the gigabyte g34wqc good?

[dusty shale]

yes

[astral trellis]

lets goo

picking up my monitor today

ended up getting this one

https://www.acer.com/ac/en/CA/content/model/UM.HV1AA.P01

[warped quest]

IPS one

[dusty shale]

I need a model #

[dusky nebula]

any cheap 144hz monitors

not curved

[spring sequoia]

yes

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/gByqqs/acer-vg270-pbiip-270-1920x1080-144-hz-monitor-umhv0aap02

not the cheap IST but i trust acer

[dusky nebula]

like under 150-160 cheap

[spring sequoia]

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/btfFf7/viotek-gfv22cb-220-1920x1080-144-hz-monitor-gfv22cb

other than used this is the best u can do not curved 144

have used this

[astral trellis]

wot

somehow the guy got this monitor for $372 after tax

372 CAD

and he sold it to me on kijiji for $400 ;-;

well, i guess there was a monitor arm included

[errant gate]

@astral trellis was it used

[astral trellis]

Ye

For about a year

[errant gate]

Than that’s not worth it

[astral trellis]

Still has like 2 years left on warranty

Yea I know

[errant gate]

Price should’ve dropped if it was used

[astral trellis]

I looked it up and it said the price was 600

Which isn’t unheard of for a 1440 144hz

[errant gate]

Yeah I have a 34” ultra wide 1440p 144hz for 600 or 700 Cad

[astral trellis]

I mean, it was still a damn good deal but it should’ve been cheaper I guess

[errant gate]

Yeah

[drifting imp]

Can anyone recommend a 144hz 1440p monitor

[opal sinew]

Yes I cn

can

LG 32GK650F-B 32

I have it and it plays games nice

[livid pollen]

Hi guys, need some help for decision making
Cpu: xeon e3 1280 v3 4c/8t
Gpu: rx 570
Ram: 8gb

Should i buy a 144 hz or 75hz 1080p monitor? Mainly for gaming purposes

[opal sinew]

144

you can very much tell the diff. 144 is buttery smooth

I didn't believe it until I bought one. Def do it dood!

[livid pollen]

sure tq

[wintry loom]

no

dont

dont

dont

dont

@livid pollen dont

your pc wont handle 144hz

stick with 75hz unless you dont mind locking all your games at 80fps and having stutters or locking your pc res to 100hz

[livid pollen]

okayy

thanks for saving me haha

[wintry loom]

dont buy a high frequency monitor if your hardware cannot handle it

that is a very overlooked aspect

[livid pollen]

ya thats why i came here for advice haha

[wintry loom]

but

if you are gonna upgrade soon

a 144hz may be worth it

but if you arent

stick with 75hz

my pc is a 1600AF anda gtx 1650Super and I got a 75hz monitor

im 100% sure my hardware wouldn't handle 144hz

unless i put everything on minimum on some games and others would have to be locked 90fps

but its not worth it

only buy a higher refresh rate monitor if your hardware can handle it
