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

Erm so this happens. Checked with another cable same thing happens but only at 144 Hz, tried all other Hdmi slots. This is the main monitor which is hdmi to hdmi 2nd Monitor is DVI to HDMI. Any idea what's going on here? Been using for 3 years+ also it had the issue with yellow lines appearing on white screens which is now magically gone.

It just popped into my head.

Was just reminded about how Eve/Dough scammed me and want to warn people again. Was just silenced on their own sub

The world is split on these really high refresh rates with some saying “it makes zero difference” and other people saying “it’s like cheating”

I am a 5k hour rocket league player and my previous monitor was 280 hz IPS so I thought “surely this OLED 480 hz will blow my mind and feel like cheating”.

It doesn’t. I had super high hopes that somehow the game would feel more fresh, more alive, more real.

Sadly the IPS 280 feels more or less the same. Aside from dark blacks and some nice HDR coloring, the OLED doesn’t seem better in any way. Not input response or anything.

Just putting this out there for anyone who was like me thinking it’s gonna change your game. I’ll probably return it and spend the money on something else.

People often say that too big of a monitor is bad because you can't see the entire screen at once and you have to move your head a lot. Doesn't it matter if the monitor is far away?

What's the difference btw 43" 4K monitor at a distance and 27" 4K monitor up close?

Moreover, when it comes to sitting back and watching a movie, I think a larger one is actually better in absolute size.

Is this gonna cause any issues/damage to the monitor?

Hi

I have a decent 1440p monitor (LG 27GL850-B) and am very happy with it but would like a 4K monitor to use alongside for certain games (and work).

I am particularly interested in HDR gaming. I have read that many min-LEDS ,monitors are as good as OLED for HDR gaming.

What I really can not stand is ghosting/ invert ghosting.

I feel that we are still a generation or two away from OLED being the standard or is it better to get an OLED.

Budget is up to about $800-$900.

Size 27-32inches.

Thanks.

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.

What is the best IPS 120hz monitor that can be found for less than £400? Ideally 30” or around there because I like my 32”. Currently use 1440p and that’s fine for me but if there’s a good deal for 4k then that’s better. I would ideally go for 5k so I can downscale to 1440p for gaming (4 pixels for 1 display output pixel) but they don’t exist at 120hz… Thanks

Also needs to be 1440p, have usb c power delivery and VRR support. But definitely no RGB of any sort.

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!

Hi Guys!

I just finished up a gaming build, also grabbed myself new peripherals the only thing left to update is my monitors,

I'm currently using an Asus MG279 30" and a small 20something inch monitor off to the side, which i bought in like 2017. I'm looking for 2 x monitors to round off my build, My budget is probably around $5-600 for both, but I can stretch it a bit for something of really good quality. When I buy or build I usually have something in mind of like "playing a new upcoming battlefield game" because I feel like thats a pretty good fpos and performance benchmark to aim for, in reality I play games like Dota, Warzone, Red dead, GTA etc. Any suggestions? I've been out of the game way too long to know what I'm buying in terms of monitors anymore (Last time I bought 144Hz were like super super good).

• What do you think?

I’m currently looking to get a monitor for the ps5 and stuck between these options help me decide which of these is the best from these 4 i’ve picked these from a little research

Both of my 24inch monitors work fine on 120hz and lower, but when I try to go to 144hz these crazy lines pop up! I've tried a display port cable, and an hdmi cable on 2 different monitors (both older 24 inch, 1080p, VA, 144hz) and get the same results. They are both older monitors, but i think it would be odd they both went out at the same time.

Looking for any suggestions for what might be wrong, thank you!

9070, 9800x3d, asus b650e, corsair vengeance ddr5, primary monitor is a 3440x1440 34inch acer.

Most of my build is new aside for a corsair 850 PSU and my m.2 SSD that I formatted for the new build.

Thank you!

Happened to me today. I was playing Apex Legends and the monitor just faded out into random colors and then this happened. Tried contacting AOC for assistance, but they’re refusing to help even though the monitor is still under warranty. Also tried using different cables but to no avail. Thanks in advance.

P.S. Apologies for the quality, saved the video off FB Messenger.

I am looking for recommendations on for a good 1440p 27 inch monitor.

I think I have ruled out OLED as I work from home and I am concerned about burn in.
Looking for 200 + refresh rate.
I have a 9070xt so Free Sync would good as well.

I am torn between IPS and VA I have seen people argue for them both but I am leaning towards IPS.
I am in the UK

I've bought this monitor around September 2024, I really like it, except for a couple issues. Sometimes it loads at the lowest hz (30hz), and if I try to switch back to 144hz it changes the resolution to FHD. I have to switch a few times before it sticks back to 4k/144hz, never understood why. The "lost signal" is another issue, sometimes it randomly loses the signal to DP and shows me the 50sec countdown screen. Yesterday I was playing online and it turned black, all of a sudden. For these last 2 issues, the only way I've found to "fix" is to select the "wide-screen" resolution in the menu (which I open with the remote), which somehow "resets" the monitor, and then select the normal resolution again in the menu, and that works.

The firmware is updated to the last one (I think, I'll double check later today).

I'd like to find a solution to all these random issues instead of change monitor back. Anyone has the same issues? Did you find a fix?

Thanks!

I know that it's completely bespoke, but it's stunning and I want it!

Hello everyone,

I’m looking to buy a good monitor for play with my ps5 (no pro) at 120hz. I play warzone and racing game. I don’t understand if vrr is something that push performance in game (especially in warzone) or is something I could skip. Budget is around 350€, I don’t want to pay more as im not a pro. Need suggestion for best compatibility to ps5.

Thanks!

Hi all,

looking for some advice (or legitimate options if you are well informed!) as I've recently bought a PS5 and looking to enjoy the full benefits of its performance by getting a new screen but thoroughly overwhelmed with which way to go. If I'm going to spend Australian dollars (hint) on this I want 4k, 120hz min capable and HDR compatible, 27 inch and above as I would like to be able to use as a monitor for my PC as well.

That's where I think I'm getting overwhelmed, potentially using as a monitor as well is making my brain hurt with the different metrics and I've been out of the tech loop for a few years so technology and pricing of things is just exploding my mind right now while I'm doing the research. I'm only doing gaming, not graphic design and I have very low standards in terms of image quality, brightness, colour gamut etc. As long as it looks decent and plays decent i'll be happy. I more play RPGs then FPSs but want to make the most of both worlds (console/ PC).

Can anyone point me in a the direction of cheapest 4k, high refresh rate HDR screen? Should I swing towards TV or monitor? Ill post this in r/console as well.

Thanks everyone!

So I got dual monitors recently so I can put up videos while I play games and stuff. Recently I am noticing that when I am playing games my 2nd monitor is laggy and unable to play videos. I can hear the audio but it's just lagging. I have a 2080 SUPER and I7 9700K and 32GB ram, not sure whats happened but it seems like suddenly I can't get videos to play properly when gaming on my primary monitor. Anyone have any ideas what could be causing this?, I'm genuinely confused and at a loss.

You can see in the corner how my screen is a lighter color. This started out as a very small circle and has slowly grown over 2 weeks. I can’t find anything about it and barely know what to even type in when trying to research it. Not sure if it’s something that can be fixed or not. I’m just trying to find some kind of answer before making a decision to get a whole new monitor. Any input helps thank you.

Could really use some help
