I'm almost tempted to get a new 27-inch 2K gaming monitor. OLED technology obviously hypes me up quite a bit, but it seems to me you have to drop at least €400 on it. Alternatively, there are Mini-LEDs, which, besides getting pretty close to OLED quality, would be a bit more versatile in case one wanted to use it for work, video editing, etc., besides gaming. Correct me if I'm wrong. I took a look at the prices and with €300 you should be able to take home a good 27-inch, 2K gaming Mini-LED. What do you guys think?

¡Hola a todos!

Quiero cambiar mi monitor y me gustaría recibir consejos sobre la configuración completa de mi PC, no solo sobre mi tarjeta gráfica.

Mi PC:

-CPU: Intel Core i9-14900KF

-GPU: NVIDIA RTX 4080 SUPER 16GB

-RAM: Acer Predator Vesta II RGB DDR5 6000MHz 32GB (2x16GB) CL32

-Placa base: ASUS TUF GAMING B760-PLUS WIFI

-SSD: Kingston FURY Renegade 2TB

-Fuente de alimentación: Corsair RM1000e 1000W 80+ Gold Modular

-Disipador de CPU: Corsair Nautilus 360 RS ARGB 360mm

-Gabinete: Nfortec Aqueronte Tempered Glass ARGB

Monitor actual:

MSI Optix MAG301CR2

-29.5" -2560x1080 -21:9 -Pantalla curva 1500R -VA -200Hz

Mi escritorio mide 136 cm de ancho y 68 cm de profundidad.

Principalmente uso la PC para:

-Juegos AAA/de alta gama

-Ghost Recon Wildlands / Breakpoint

-World of Warcraft Retail / Midnight

-Juegos de mundo abierto

-Incursiones y mazmorras ocasionales

-Películas

Busco una mejora significativa en la calidad de imagen y actualmente me interesa:

-32"

-4K

-QD-OLED

-240Hz

-Excelente HDR

-VRR / G-SYNC

-Respuesta muy rápida Idealmente, DisplayPort 2.1

Los dos monitores que estoy considerando son:

MSI MPG 322URX QD-OLED — 849 €

MSI MPG 321URX QD-OLED — alrededor de 739 €

Pero también estoy abierto a ASUS, Alienware, Samsung, Gigabyte u otras marcas si hay una mejor opción.

¿Qué elegirías para este PC y por qué?

En particular:

-¿Vale la pena pagar más por el 322URX que por el 321URX?

-¿Una RTX 4080 SUPER puede aprovechar bien un monitor OLED 4K de 240 Hz?

-¿Me recomendarías algún otro monitor QD-OLED de 32" 4K 240Hz?

-¿Hay algo que deba saber sobre el cambio de un monitor VA de 29.5" 21:9 200Hz a un monitor QD-OLED de 32" 16:9 4K 240Hz?

-¿Elegirías personalmente el 321URX y ahorrarías dinero, o te decantarías por el nuevo 322URX?

¡Gracias de antemano!

Hi folks,

Please suggest a good monitor under 25k.

I picked 4 monitors within that range:

1. Lenovo Legion 27Q-11

2. Acer Nitro XV272U F3

3. ASUS ROG Strix XG27ACMES

4. MSI MAG 2750PF X30

Hey guys,

i am currently looking to upgrade to an OLED Screen soon and i have been wondering what OLED Monitors would be a good deal for the money.

I run a RTX 4070 Ti Super which would give me the ability to play 4K but im unsure if that is a smart move to do, especially when i want the Frame and go down to 2K if the Picture quality is getting worse due to it being on a 4k Monitor.

I have around 500-600€ Budget for one (I dont even think a 4K Monitor is in the Budget with that lol).

On what i want for the Monitor is atleast 24" Inch, 1440p144hz with a High Color Spectrum and great Blacks (For example i read that the MSI QD-OLED Monitors sometimes have issues with Light that the black is more purple-ish which i dont like, especially cause i always keep my Room lit)

Are there any good Monitors which you guys could recommend?

Cheers

Edit: Of course i also dont want a Screen which gets burn in so easily, i dont know much about Modern OLED Screen but when they got mainstream i remember them having this problem

My old monitor is finally giving up on me, the colors have this weird yellow tint now and I keep getting random flickering when I'm mid game. Been putting off replacing it for months but I think it's time.

I mostly play competitive shooters like Valorant and CS but I also want something that looks good for single player stuff like Baldur's Gate or story games. My budget is somewhere around $400 to $500, and I'd like at least 27 inches with a high refresh rate, 144hz or more if possible. I'm running an RTX 4070 so I want something that can actually keep up with that.

I looked at a few options on amazon and best buy but there's so many brands now, gigabyte, lg, samsung, msi, and half the reviews contradict each other.

What are you all using right now that you'd actually recommend, and is there anything specific I should watch out for when picking one?

1. Acre Predator X27U F5 26.5” QHD 1440p 500hz
2. MSI MAG 272QP 27” QHD 1440p 500hz

I’m stuck picking between these two monitors. I have previously used 240hz and 185hz monitors but have no clue if they had BFI & MPRT but I wondering if it is worth spending the extra $100 on the MSI to have the BFI & MPRT features. For reference I play a massive variety of games but lean to more fps and fast paced.

I'm looking to buy a new OLED monitor. I'm currently gaming on a 1440p IPS 27" monitor.

My GPU is a 5070 Ti, so I can run all my games on max graphics and I absolutely love it. My question is: should I go for a 4K 32" (maybe 27", but I'm not sure if 4K is worth it at that size) or a 1440p 27" OLED? I don't really care about the monitor size; resolution is my main concern.

The main thing I'm wondering is whether it's better to play at 1440p with max graphics, or sacrifice some graphics settings and play at 2160p. I really love seeing all the extra details that max graphics settings give you, even if they're very small, so I'm honestly not sure which way to go.

I know I'd definitely have to drop a few settings at 4K, especially in games like Cyberpunk, and it would hurt to turn off things like ray tracing.

What do you lot recommend?

I don't mind using frame generation too much, but I'd rather not have to rely on it for a smooth gaming experience.

Also, any OLED monitor recommendations?

Hey y’all, so I’ve had a 1080p TN panel for about 11 years now and I think it’s time for me to upgrade.

I’m sort of stuck between a 27” 1440p and 27” 4K OLED. I know it’s all up to personal preference, but has anyone had both and prefer one over the other?

Bought a Asus TUF 27" Gaming Monitor 2560 x 1440 QHD IPS 210Hz 0.3ms AMD FreeSync Premium 2 x HDMI 2.0 1 x DisplayPort 1.4 1 x 3.5mm Earphone Jack, VG27AQ5A monitor. It's advertised online as 210hz but on the box it says overclock to 210hz.
Should I overclock this using the monitor's menu button at the back? Not sure if it'd reduce its lifespan or have any other drawbacs.

Looking for an upgrade from my ViewSonic XG2431 after it stopped working. I want atleast 360hz, but my pc is on the lower side of mid-end, might upgrade in a few months. Is there a monitor thats considered amazing for max 400-450 euros?

Its gotta be 1080p, 24-27 inches, minimum 360hz, really good motion clarity, but also has to be good for visual games, movies, etc.

So not the Zowie monitors. Are there any top tier options for that nowadays? Something thats considered unbeatable for that price maybe?

Current options ive found but not sure if good:

• Alienware AW2524HF / AW2724HF
• ASUS ROG XG259CMS

Preferably looking for opinions of people who have researched monitors a lot.

As the title implies, im looking to upgrade my 60hz monitor for something more compatible with my current rig. Will be primarily used for gaming. Obviously not expecting top-notch performance given my set-up, but id like something that better represents what my rig is capable of and will last me a significant amount of time.

Last time I bought a monitor I spent hours trying to figure out why the visual quality of my games looked like crap despite my new monitor being better in every considerable way. Im not a big tech guy so most of the explanations went way over my head, and eventually I decided to just deal with the bad quality. (Didnt last long since it broke shortly after buying it lol)

Ive read that IPS and 144hz are the ideal specs I should be aiming for. But with how many options there are, and my previous bad experiences with other monitors, im not sure which direction to look in any more.

As far as budget goes, ideally looking at around R1500 ($100) so nothing fancy ofcours, but if there is significant need, I can up the budget to around R3000 ($200) and even R4000 ($250)

Currently based in South Africa 🇿🇦. Looking to play games like Cyberpunk, Spider Man 2 (where I noticed the issues most prominently)

I have a 5080 graphics card with a amd 9800x3d. I am looking to upgrade my monitor (1920x1080) to a oled monitor.

From a bit of searching and research, i think the best specs for a monitor to upgrade to is a 4k, oled, and preferably 240hz monitor. It seems there is a difference between qd-oled and woled, and from what I gathered I would probably prefer a woled (i use my monitor behind a window so alot of sun comes through and so woled would be better because it's brighter??), but it seems that woleds are more expensive?

I narrowed it down to the MSI MPG 272URX, but I am still not sure if this is a good choice. Does anyone else have any recommendations? Also is the MSI MAG 272UP a better or worse alternative to the 272URX, because it seems that the 272UP is a cheaper alternative, but for some reason in my country I can get the 272URX for cheaper.

Overall, I am just wondering if the 272URX is a good choice and worth it for the long run.

(Also I hear some issues about screens going blank, and vrr flickering, I have never used an OLED so I don't haven't experienced this and was wondering if this is also something to worry about??)

Thanks for any help!

I am looking for Gaming Monitor for PS 5 in Budget 10k to 14k in 27 inch range, I can't increase my budget.
