seriously I would probably decline cheap 4k in favor of just regular resolution because of the headache it would cause with linux DEs tryin to deal with quirks of 4k

It's a good novelty, suddenly you can move windows around or move the camera on games with little to no motion blur and ghosting which is really pleasing to the eye. Still can't try freesync because I'm on a 280x but I'm planning to upgrade to the new AMD line later this year. Anyway higher framerates and refresh rates on games are really cool in general.

Also, on 1440p you can have two windows side by side or even 4 in a mosaic without barely losing a single bit of info because everything is designed for the 768p potato resolution.

I've got an Acer XG270HU (2560x1440@144hz TN) and I love it.
144hz DOES make a noticeable difference over 60 though the difference between 120->144 isn't much at all. It DOES increase fluidity, but its not a massive jump like 60->120 was. (Though I went straight to 144 myself).
If you have a 60hz monitor, its worth getting 144 since its becoming a standard now. If you have 120hz, its not worth getting a new monitor for.

144hz TN does me just fine. 2560x1440 is also the best resolution for RIGHT NOW because 4k cannot into above 60hz and even without that, unless you go multi-GPU, you won't even get 60 in games - not if you want the eye candy. There's literally no point in turning down graphical settings just to achieve a higher framerate @ 4k since 4k is ALL about higher fidelity.

With 144hz web browsing feels about as smooth as reading a physical newspaper (actually made me like Firefox's smooth scrolling feature). I'm glad I switched from my previous monitor (Samsung U28D590D).

I have three monitors and a TV. Two IPS, one TN, and I don't know what the TV is, have to check.

I'd love to have a monitor that's at least 1440p, has high refresh rate, and packs *sync preferably freesync so I can leave Nvidia. The panel can be IPS, VA, etc. though I'd love to have an OLED monitor, but it's not going to be affordable on the next 5 years.

The next PC I build will probably have a 390 in it so I'm trying to decide between that monitor or a freesync ultrawide. I like the size/immersion factor of the ultrawide but it's only 75hz and costs a fuckload more than the MG278Q, also there's the issue of 21:9 support for things as well. I guess I'd have to see them in person to make a good decision about them.

I was looking at that one too, and the BenQ XL2730Z. The BenQ is sold out everywhere though.

I think I can deal with TN for all those other great features. Since I'm thinking of going team red this time around FreeSync makes sense too.

I'll be damned if I buy into Gsync, nvidia greed has gone too far.

>>
>>52992963
I read a few reviews and the only things the Asus one loses against the IPS version is a bit of contrast and the viewing angles (it's TN after all) but everything else like color, brightness, etc is virtually the same, plus a much wider freesync range so for 200€ less it was a no brainer.

Actually you're probably right. A lot of manufacturers seem to be skipping 1440p for UHD. Even Tomshardware's best monitors list doesn't even have a 1440p section.
>>
I'm hesitating between the H257HU (25", IPS, 60 hz) and the XG270HU (27", TN, 144hz. Also freesync but I have a nVidia card).

The XG270 is 130 bucks more expensive. Not sure if getting the extra size and hertz but losing the IPS panel is worth it...

What are your thoughts brehs ?
>>
>>52993673
I'd have to agree, but running stuff at UHD is just really bad right now. My 3570k runs just about everything on Dolphin, but it can get a little troublesome. I couldn't imagine how 1440p or even UHD fares.

4K 120Hz IPS with GSync/FreeSync at least, but who knows what else comes out, maybe OLED, 10bit HDR or whatever else.
>>
>>52993725

They're about the same price on Amazon. Either way it all comes down to how important IPS is to you vs 144hz. I personally lean towards 144hz because I hate screen tearing and ghosting, freesync helps with that too. Just plan to get an AMD card if you bother to get a freesync monitor, it's a great feature that you should read up on. Also make sure the freesync range is wide enough, preferably 40-144hz at least.
>>
>>52993725

Why not this IPS monitor over that Acer? This one has a better stand by far.

>>
>>52993695
You'd need a new monitor as well as a new graphics card to benefit from the increased bandwidth, same as USB, SATA, HDMI, etc.
>>
>>52993695
Your current monitor doesn't support DP1.3 most likely, so you won't get any increased bandwidth. Monitor OC isn't that simple either, just because the connection from your graphics card to your monitor has extra bandwidth doesn't mean that your monitor can actually run flawlessly at higher refresh rate.

There's the XF270HU as well, 144Hz, 1440p, IPS and FreeSync. It's pretty much the best FreeSync IPS monitor if you're going for 1440p in terms of specs on paper. No idea how it stacks up in practice.

I just don't know anymore, I tried 4 different Asus MG279Q and they all had bad bleeding.

>>
>>52995665
IPS will always glow, just like TN will always have a severe color inversion vertical angle limit and VA will always have subtle posterization and positional color shift.

They each have stronger use case scenarios, but you're probably just better off using IPS for workstation displays with the light in the room on or watching a VA TV from the couch in a dark room.

strobed backlights make motion VASTLY clearer, but you need >100 Hz strobing to avoid perceivable flicker, and you need display update rate, the strobe rate, and the content frame rate to all match in order to work.

high motion clarity just feels a shit ton better regardless of whether you're playing anything competitive.

120 Hz sports broadcasts will be nice when they start in the next 5-10 years.

I'm having a hard time finding any accurate dimensions on small monitors.
I'm looking for something about 250mm in height (without the stand)
>>
Ive been looking into 144hz monitors today and maybe someone with experience can help me out.

How important is adaptive refresh rate (aka gsync or freesync? Im guessing at 144hz I probably will not notice tearing anyway, so it might only help on games I cannot play with very high frames per second.
Do adaptive refresh rate technologies introduce noticeable amount of input lag? Just for comparison, 60 fps vsync input lag is extremely noticeable.

How import are the anti motion blur technologies like lightboost or nvidia ulmb?
It seems with gsync you have to choose between less motion blur or adaptive refresh rate (ulmb) but cannot have both. Which is more important?

I googled and read a lot about that already but I'd like more points of view. My current standpoint is that for 144 hz anti motion blur is better than adaptive refresh rate but for 60fps gaming adaptive refresh rate could be worth it.
>>
>>52997539
By height do you mean width, as the monitor will be in portrait? If so that's going to be a tiny monitor, to give you an idea my 19" 5:4 one is about 410mm wide so you're going to be looking at like 15-17", maybe even smaller, depending on the aspect ratio.

Why exactly are you so limited on space, and why must it be portrait? I can't imagine many scenarios where you'd be limited on the height of the monitor.
>>
>>52997936

Were really helpful for me. I also read some threads for user experience on /r/buildapc
>>
>>52997969
Sorry about the confusion. Yes, I suppose I am talking about width as the monitor will be in portrait.

As to why it needs to be so small, it's going to be a second monitor, and with my current monitor and a set of speakers my desk-space is pretty limited.
>>
>>52997936
I can't say I've noticed it but I've read that you can still get tearing running below the monitor's refresh rate as well as stuttering (due to repeated frames), that's what Freesync and Gsync are supposed to fix.

If you don't want to pay extra for either of those then the next best option is to turn down the settings/get more GPU power until you can maintain the monitor's refresh rate and then turn on V sync, or if you don't like the lag then you can turn on frame rate limiting if your card supports it (newer AMD cards do, no idea when it comes to Nvidia) with the added bonus that the frame rate doesn't halve if it drops below the refresh rate. Also the power draw and heat output will drop too.
>>
>>52998209
I'm confused, can you clarify whether you're limited in horizontal or vertical space? It seems like you lack horizontal but I assumed you were height limited.

If you are limited in width then finding a monitor 250mm tall (which would be its width when rotated) will be a bit easier. You're best bet would probably be an 18.5" 16:9 monitor (the panel would be 230mm high, plus the bezels and it would be a tad over 250mm if you can make a tiny bit extra room). However at that size you're only going to get 1366x768.

xb270hu 144hz ips 1440p gsynch
I had to sell my old 1080p 60hz because it felt like a damn slideshow compared to it.
It's like memechanical keyboards all over again, once you go 144hz everything else feels terrible.
And oh man the gaymes with a 980ti you can get 144fps+ in most but even if it drops a bit gsynch makes it so fluid you can barely notice, I really thought gsynch/freesynch was just a meme.
Also 1440p at 27" is perfect for productivity, you can have your IDE at one side and your brownser to shitpost at /g/ or check stackoverflow and both will be big enought to not make you want to go fullscreen.
700€ is really a lot for a monitor but I don't regret a single cent.

Windows 10 has dogshit scaling, despite being "improved" supposedly. It's a blurry fucking mess because it seems to do some image-level resizing, meanwhile W8.1 at the same scaling level is sharp in the vast majority of applications, including the ones which are blurry shit on W10.

It's mind boggling how MS can fuck this up.

Haven't tried desktop Linux since I got my 4K screen, frankly just the thought of configuring a 3 monitor setup with different DPIs is a nightmare, so I've been putting it off.
>>
>>52998499
If that's your actual setup then what I suggested would be fine, the monitor would just extend further in front of the speaker by about 1cm or so.

Have you considered wall mounting the speakers to get you a bit of extra room? Also another thing to consider is wall mounting the second monitor above the first so that you can go even bigger.

A bit of glow is fine and like you said IPS will always glow, but the bleeding totally isn't and I'm tired of having to play the lottery each time I want to buy a new monitor.

Same reason a high PPI looks good on phones, things look clearer because the pixels are so small, less jagged edges everywhere.


if you're getting a large monitor like 30+ inches for 4K, it kind of kills the PPI.

a 40 inch 4K has the same PPI as a 20inch 1080p, how does that 1080p display look when you compare it to some high ppi/retina display ?

Probably going for 1440p 144Hz when I feel like upgrading, but I just can't justify spending any more than ~$100 on a computer part given how undemanding my needs are

Any reason I shouldnt buy a Dell UltraSharp U3415W 34-Inch Curved monitor?

Ive been looking forward to buying one for quite awhile, as I havent had the money until now. Only down side I see is the price.

It seems there is a (firmware?) bug that doesn't allow OD on the XF270HU through display port, yes HDMI works but there is no freesync over HDMI yet. Monitor is rated for HDMI 2.0 in addition to that, but no AMD card as of yet does HDMI 2.0.

That said, if you get a good one with little light bleed and no weird spottiness it's solid. My recommendation is probably to wait a little to see what else the market offers.

it looks like Overdrive is enabled when freesync is on, it's just not modifiable. So sayth the lord acer

>>52996017
The flicker at 60hz isn't even that bad. It sure is nice being able to play games that are locked at 60fps with no blur at all than be able to task switch to my desktop and move my cursor around and have it also be perfectly smooth and clear. I'll trade a little flicker for perfect motion clarity any day.

I dont know if this is the right place to ask but I bought a new monitor (LG 34um67) recently and it makes a quiet but really annoying high pitch sound. I installed all drivers and everything but I dont know how to fix it. What do /g/ ?
>>
Qnix 2710

I really like it, but I kind of regret it, the big size is neat for single player and stuff but kind of a detriment in competitive FPS, and the extra load on my gpu is not really welcome for single player vidya either
I dont plan on splurging on high end gpus constantly, maybe once 1080p/ips/144hz stuff is available on the cheaper end I'll switch to one of those, that would let me drive pretty games at 1080/60, and competitive stuff at 144 too.

which one?

My nigga. I'm hoping a good 1440p IPS/VA/"something other than TN" monitor comes out with a good refresh rate. I won't even mind if it's ultrawide.

My wallet isn't ready. I'll probably do a full upgrade and wait out on xPoint. I don't know what I'm going to do with this PC however.

>>53009105

For what reason you'd bother upgrading the CPU?

What will make use of it?

Two
One is E1700S
Other is SC22C300
I picked up that 17" for less than £10 and tried to hook it up to the pc using dvi cable. For whatever reason my card (960) didn't see the monitor and had to get a hdmi adapter.
It does the job and is quite useful for Unreal

>>
>>53008905
i meant for the multiplayer games, and playing the game in a window on a black background would probably be less distracting than whatever is behind your monitor
>>
>>53010143

The multiplayer games I have no problem with, I lower the settings on them anyway for better visiblity so most of them run at several hundred FPS
I guess I could reduce window size to have more in my focus but to me, any lit surface, even if black, is more distracting than whatever that is not a glowing screen.

>4K becoming the de facto standard
>buying 1080p monitors today

why ???
>>
>>53010424

Because 4K is expensive and my card can't handle gaming at 4K anyway.
>>
>>53010395

Which really only supports my point.
>>
>>53010460
its no more expensive than some Asus ROG monitors listed here

if you can't game at 4K then just scale it..
meanwhile you have the benefits of a high PPI display *all the time*

Black bars cut off part of the screen. It isn't shrinking everything and putting it into the smaller area, it just cuts that part off. Its common that it gets people killed in a match.

Your point is incorrect, and you still haven't answered my question.

I have had a BenQ G2222HDL 21.5" LED DVI for the last 7 years. As I'm upgrading everything, andI love 1080, I'm moving from that to dual LG 24MP57VQ-P, one landscape, one portrait side.

>>53010673
You're an assfuck that argues about something you obviously don't know about then you get mad and insult me because you don't understand that what you said was wrong.
>>
>>53010737

What I said is right, The focus area of your vision is small, a 27" screen over a 24" one is detrimental to your focus on it.

You seem to have massive issues following our conversation, probably because you are mad fucking stupid.

Go "compete".
>>
>>53010777
Have you even ever played a match of csgo before? You're a moron. A larger screen helps. It doesnt matter whats on the edge of your screen, you should be aiming where you think the enemy will be.
Stop talking about things you don't understand, unless you know of a monitor that fits within the specs i posted earlier.

There isnt any good good LCD monitors, but here's some contenders:
>NEC LCD2190WUXI
>NEC LCD2490WUXI
>Eizo SX3031W
>Eizo CG303W
>NEC PA301W
>NEC PA302W
>Eizo CX240, 241, CG247
>Eizo CX271/CG277
>NEC PA322UHD
Nothing else is worthwhile, and the NEC 30" 8:5 monitors are subject to debate as well, because they have absolutely horrible glow, especially the AH-IPS 302W.
Most of these have untolerable amount of input lag as well.

>1440p
2560x1440 is not an television standard or resolution and therefore non-interlaced is given.
>>
>>52991130
>which are the best?
1440p 144hz IPS

>which do you have?
1440p 144hz TN

>which are you planning on buying next?
Nothing solid. Waiting to see 4k 144hz pans out like.
>>
>tfw still running my two old 1080p 60hz tn monitors
guess with how things are looking I'll upgrade when 4k ips get cheaper.
