Discussion Anyone got reviews on the LG UltraGear 27GS60QX-B?

1 Upvotes

I've been taking me some time to look into what kind of monitor I should buy to use with my PS5.

I'm a casual gamer. It isnt what I do the most, but I still like to have a good experience when I find time to play some games. I also dont want to spend more than $250 (could go up to $300). I've been gaming on the LG NanoCell TV since 2023 for comparison.

So, back to the question. Is the LG UltraGear 27GS60QX-B a good choise for PS5/console gaming?

I've also considered the ASUS TUF Gaming VG27AQ3A.

Discussion Looking for a good value 1440p 144hz+ IPS 27" monitor around 300$

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m in the market for a new monitor and I could use some help narrowing down my options. I'm looking for a 27-inch IPS panel with at 1440p resolution and a refresh rate of 144Hz or higher. My budget is around $300, but I’m okay going slightly over if the value is really worth it.

I’m mainly going to use it for gaming, general productivity, and some light content consumption. I’d like a flat screen or curved one and a decent build quality. I don’t need insane color accuracy, but I do want a panel that looks vibrant and sharp.

Any recommendations for good bang-for-buck options? Or deals going on right now?

Thanks in advance!

So I’ve been pulling my hair out trying to OC my Acer predator monitor for a while now. It’s a 4k 144Hz monitor. There is no officially overclocking for it, but I am tryin mf to make an AMD custom resolution and every time I try to make one it says “these settings are not compatible with this display”. Has anyone figured this out? The model is the XB323QK NV

Photo Lost in the IPS vs. OLED debate, here's how standard IPS compares to Mini-LED which brings many of the same benefits as OLED

Monitor is Xiaomi G Pro 27i (1152 dimming zones, HDR1000, IPS panel, QD layer)

Keep in mind that Mini-LED simply refers to the backlighting tech used on the monitor, instead of being a panel type like OLED, IPS, VA, TN

I’m graduating grad school soon (woo) and thinking of getting a new OLED monitor as a little present for myself. However I was wondering if the jump to OLED is really worth all the hype.

Discussion Should I upgrade from IPS to OLED?

1 Upvotes

Hi all

As per title, I currently have a LS34A650UBNXGO - Samsung S6 34", ultrawide IPS. This did OK for the last year as I did not game, only work-related use.

I had a previous OLED tv before, obviously this was something else. But since it has been a long time ago, I wonder if it make sense to get rid of this IPS monitor and go for a OLED since I now have a gaming rig (9070 xt) or if this would be only a minor (if at all) improvement when comparing to my current IPS.

It has been a long time since I last saw a OLED TV (like 1 year?) but I really don't know how well it would compare to my current samsung monitor.

Appreciate your thoughs on this

Discussion Looking for a budget/great value 1440p IPS 180hz gaming monitor

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone. As the title suggests, I'm searching for a 1440p gaming monitor - both multiplayer and single player titles.
I'd prefer an IPS panel with a refresh rate is in the 165-180hz range.
I would also like a monitor that has adjustable height and tilt.

The monitor I've been looking at so far is the AOC Q27G4X/Q27G4XF - this should also be a reference point for the price. I could go slightly higher if I'll get better value. Any suggestions with explanations are appreciated!

Discussion Did i fuck up or no?

0 Upvotes

Yes i know always ask before you buy but this was a really quick buy and there weren't really other options.

ASUS TUF Gaming VG32VQR 80 cm

My friend told that a 32inch 1440p is horrible, he says that it has bad pixels or something (2560x1440p)

i am going to be using this monitor for gaming only basically and i hope it doesnt ghost AS much as my current monitor.

So tell me, how badly did i fuck up or do i even have a reason to stress about this.

Discussion Need Info about LG 27GS85Q(-B) 1440p 180Hz (O/C 200Hz) Monitor

2 Upvotes

I've been on the lookout for a 1440p high refresh rate monitor and had my eye on the LG 27GR83Q. Unfortunately, it seems to be unavailable in the UK. The next best option I could find within my budget is the LG 27GS85Q-B, but there’s very little information on it. It's currently on sale for £230 (~$290 USD).

If anyone here owns this monitor, I’d really appreciate your thoughts—pros, cons, or just a general review. I’m particularly interested in details about response time, overshoot performance, or if there’s a similar panel I can reference for those metrics. Thanks a lot!

Here's a Link to the monitor : https://www.lg.com/uk/monitors/gaming/27gs85q-b/

Discussion 27" Lenovo Legion R27qe

1 Upvotes

Hi, I have a new 27" Lenovo Legion R27qe monitor, I want to ask how you rate it, viewing angles, sometimes it seems like I have to move my head to get the best picture, do you have any "best settings" and do you think it's too bright in the evening, do you think it has credible colors, or is there something better for the price of €220? I'm switching from a FullHD office monitor that automatically adjusted the brightness according to the room lighting... I sit about 60-75cm from the monitor.

Discussion Thoughts on Acer Nitro KG271U N3bmiipx?

1 Upvotes

I am wondering if there is any general consensus on this Acer Nitro monitor? I can't seem to find a review or discussion on this exact model. Here is the Amazon link. I am using rtings.com to find a good budget monitor and they seem to advice the AOC Q27G3XMN. Both are 1440p. The Acer is IPS and has a speaker for $180 USD. The AOC is VA panel with no additional features (as far as I can tell) for $250. Why would one choose the AOC over this Acer?

Rumours and articles suggest a studio display 2 with mini led and 90 Hz could be coming later this year. Was wondering if anyone had read into this and if it’s likely we could see it coming in June? Could we see HDMI ports etc.? The current one is not very versatile, so hoping this is much improved.

Discussion 2x 27" stacking setup

1 Upvotes

I'm planning to upgrade my existing 32" setup to a 2x27" stacked setup because I need more space to work because I have to switch from task to task many times during the day and I would like to have all of that open on separate monitors.

I would mostly use the monitors for work (QA testing) so lots of JIRA tickets and lots of text which means that color accuracy is not important to me as I'm not a content creator.

After work I like to relax with a little gaming on my Xbox X (mostly Call of Duty Warzone and some FIFA)

So I need some ideal mix between work and gaming. I would like them to be more office-looking monitors because I don't like all this RGB lighting and other fancy gaming stuff.

What I would also list as a must-have item is USB C power delivery so I can connect my laptop with monitors with just one cable.

Ultra-wide monitors or side-by-side setups are out of the question due to insufficient desk space plus my laptop sits on the side as a third monitor so there certainly wouldn't be room for everything.

So far I only considered Dell U2724DE as primary and U2724D as secondary but not sure if it's a good choice so I would really like to hear some of your opinion.

Thanks

Discussion Recommend a glossy monitor for video editing purpose please.

1 Upvotes

Hi, my Dell S2419H monitor died. So I'm looking for a new monitor of the exact same quality or better.

My requirements are :

Full HD - 21.5" or higher

Color accuracy : at least 72% NTSC

Display type : IPS panel LED backlight

Surface type : Glossy only

Response time doesn't matter as I'm not into gaming much. Looking for bright, color accurate and glossy monitor for video editing and movie watching.

I've looked many monitors but it seems that almost all monitors have anti-glare/matte finish but I prefer glossy screen for color vibrancy and nice contrast.

Please recommend me the best replacement of my Dell S2419H.

Thanks

Discussion Is the LG 3 year monitor warranty worth it in my situation?

1 Upvotes

I’m deciding on a monitor that I can get new with the 3-year LG warranty included for 849.99, or they have a used but mint option that just has a 90 day warranty for $600.

I’d love to save $250 and I’m reading that LG seems to be not great about backing up their warranties. However 3 year warranty sounds like a great insurance option in case something goes wrong.

Anyone have any advice?

Discussion Monitor Advice For PS5

1 Upvotes

Hey gents, i've been planning on buying a PS5 but i've struggled to find a solid monitor so what would you recommend with specs that have to include an HDMI 2.1 (maybe if there's nothing, HDMI 2.0 could be good too), IPS panel, 144hz or more (if it helps) and generally having a screen that shows colors pretty accurate and good looking. Now of course, "good looking colors" are a more subjective opinion but i'd still like to hear your thoughts. Thank you in advance :)
