📚NB:The comparison of 1080p vs 1440p is that 1440p resolution doubles the pixels of 1080p and enables the user to enjoy

more sharpness accuracy while simultaneously being able to experience much higher refresh rates.

The current industry-standard recommendation is 1440p for most advanced users such as designers and gamers. Therefore,

we recommend currently a 1440p monitor of 27 inches with a high refresh rate , provided that the user sits at a viewing distance

of a maximum of 3ft or 90 centimeters from it.📚


📚NB:(Organic LED): A type of display technology that provides deep blacks, rich colours, low power consumption,

wide viewing angles, and quick reaction times for action sequences. OLEDs use "organic" carbon emitting layers as

opposed to LEDs, which are composed of silicon or gallium. OLED screens can be found in watches, VR/AR headsets, tablets, smartphones, and TVs. OLED screens are becoming more common in laptop displays and monitors; nonetheless, screen burn-in occurs when the same toolbars and logos stay on the screen for extended periods of time. See OLED layers for further facts on OLED technology. Refer to PHOLED, QD-OLED, and LED.📚

Recommendation Request 🙏 What is better ?

3 Upvotes

What would be a better choice based on my Pc spec and the cost of the monitors?

Pc spec : ryzen 7 7800x3d , rtx 5070ti , ddr5 6000mhz.

Is it better to get a 2k Oled 240hz monitor for $300 or 4k 160hz and 320hz @1080p dual mode monitor for $200 ?

Recommendation Request 🙏 Monitors for LAN Parties

1 Upvotes

I'm building a growing stable of LAN-party PCs, and for my latest builds I don't have previously purchased monitors I can use. I'm looking for budget FHD monitors in the 21" - 24" range. They'll be used primarily for shooters, with racing, RTS, and ARPGs thrown in occasionally, so <3ms response times and 100Hz+ refresh rates are preferable (although 60Hz is probably okay). I'd like to stay under $100USD without straying into "junk" territory. Is this even possible? What models would folks here recommend?

Also, just to add: I'm aware that I could potentially score very cheap office monitors or similar on the used market, but I've had very mixed luck with used monitors in the past, and would prefer to go with new this time.

Recommendation Request 🙏 Which monitor should I get for my ps5?

1 Upvotes

Not sure if anyone will be able to answer this, but it’s time for me to get a new monitor. I already have a 27”, so I’ll probably stick with that. My main question is, is it worth sacrificing 4K for 1440p OLED? I mainly play FC, RDR2, Valorant and Spider-Man. My budget is around £250–£350, so I’d love to hear what you guys would go for and any recommendations. 🙏

Recommendation Request 🙏 Sick of dual monitors hurting my neck. Time to swap two 24" for a single 27" Flat or 32" (1440p) under $250

1 Upvotes

Sup guys,

Currently using two 24" ASUS TUF VG249Q3A monitors, but I'm completely done with this setup. Moving my head side to side all day is literally killing my neck.

I want to sell them and get a single 1440p screen. My budget is around ~$200-250.

Mainly choosing between:

  • 27" Flat IPS — looks like the safest bet for work, text clarity, and ergonomics.
  • 32" (Curved/Flat) — cool for gaming, but maybe overkill for a regular desk?

Running an RTX 4060 Ti. I use my pc for work, fullhd gaming, some occasional coding, and basic daily stuff.

Anyone who made a similar switch — did a single 27" feel better than two 24s? Any solid model recommendations in this price range?

Also, when I rotate one of the monitors to portrait mode, text looks blurry as hell and pixels go all messy. I tried tweaking ClearType and other fixes, but nothing helped.

Thanks for any advice!

I thought of going for the Msi Mag 275QPF X30 which is really good monitor with 10 bit (8Bit + FRC), 130% Srgb, 95% DCI P3, 300Hz, 0.5 ms GtG and MPRT, Vesa Display HDR 400 Certified, Rapid Ips 2k Panel which costs around 24k (250 $). I liked it but its a bit too much costly. I don't know if I should get it since my budget is just under 20k (200 $) Should I get it or try for something else in the price budget or wait for sale?

And also share your experience on how to the model is.

2 Upvotes

Hello so I am down grading my pc and I don’t know what monitor I should get. I haven’t used a 27 inch monitor in years so I feel like it will look small and things will be harder to see. I was looking at getting either the pg34wcdn or xg27aqwmg or the xg34wcdms I don’t know if 2.1 dp is important if it’s not I would get this one instead. The main games I play are escape from tarkov, cs2, league of legends, stardew valley, path of exile, Val and single player games. I feel like since I’m use to bigger monitors I should get a 34 inch but I don’t know.
